Cons of Losing Weight Quickly After Pregnancy
A new mother always worries about how to get the pregnancy weight off. The last thing she wants after she's had the baby is for people to think she's still expecting.
Unfortunately our society lauds women who are back to a size 2 within a month of giving birth. But did you ever stop to think that it might not be healthy to lose the weight that quickly? After all, it took you 9 months to put it on, why should it come off in 9 days?

This is one reason the body stores extra fat during pregnancy. The purpose is to fuel the body for producing breast milk.

When you starve yourself in order to lose weight, your metabolism slows way down. This will cause you to feel sluggish and lethargic. You may not even be able to adequately take care of your baby. Depriving yourself to lose weight is never the answer!
