The first thing that
new mothers need to do is to stop dieting, this may sound really strange but
this can actually speedup the post pregnancy weight loss goals. It happens so
that staying away from favourite food can really stress out someone and this
can definitely lead to some weight gain. So, when one eats to reduce the hunger
then it always works well. Instead of dieting, one needs to eat some properly
balanced meals. Also one can keep different types of healthy snacks at home
which can kill the hunger and keep the stomach full. Carrot sticks, apples, oat
meal cookies and wheat crackers can serve as healthy snacks. But no matter how
much one is desperate to lose weight they should eat at least 1800 calories per
day (if they are breastfeeding).

When one becomes a new
mother, their body always needs the maximum amount of nutrition especially when
they are breastfeeding. So, one needs to choose food items that are heavy in
nutrients but are also light in fat and calories. One should go for some cold
water fish like sardines, salmons and tuna because they are high in DHA. One
should also go for yogurt and milk because they have calcium and makes the
bones strong. Apart from that, one should also eat chicken and some lean meat
because they are high in fibre and protein that keeps the stomach full for a
longer time.

One should know that
breastfeeding can actually help one to lose body weight faster. There have been
many studies that have come to the conclusion that breastfeeding can help one
to return to the pre baby weight faster. At the same time breastfeeding is also
good for the baby as it helps to strengthen their immunity power and provides
them with a lot of health benefits.
