How do you lose the belly after a baby?

ttalmadge Posts: 2 Joined: 2009/05/26	2009/05/26, 05:09 PM I just had a baby almost 2 months ago. I lost alot of the weight but still have a belly and some extra weight I can get rid of. What are the best excerises and diet for me to do to get the body I want? Also, I am still trying to get the routine in place. What are the best workouts for a new mom without alot of time?:(

Be patient, more weight loss will come with time. As far as the best workouts - research online for some 30 minute workouts. Try to squeeze them in 3 - 5 times a week. If you are lucky and your baby is on a schedule - pick a time every day that he/she is napping.

I had my baby 4.5 months ago and still getting rid of this belly! One great way is to detox for a couple weeks and then lift heavy heavy weights :)
