Burn Those After-Pregnancy Baby Fat

By Chris Scarborough


One of the joys of conceiving is showing off your bulging baby bump and this is a trend that being made ever so popular by Hollywood's hottest expecting leading ladies.

But you may not be able to shed that baby bump so quickly after delivery unless you're one of the Hollywood hotties. In fact, if you're over 25 and certainly over 30, losing the baby weight may seem like a losing battle.

Besides our body packing on the pounds during pregnancy, there is a natural tendency to favor fat and gain weight also comes along with age. When a certain fat level is maintained and reached for an undetermined by specific amount of time, then the body will accept this level as normal and will work at conserving it.

So, as you start to purge those extra pounds, other physiological systems kick and fosterRe-gain. Controlling your activity level, your hunger level, and how you metabolize food are hormones and neurotransmitters and they are also affected in ways that would encourage fat to make its way back.

Experts would, however, assert that there is hope and it may just take more time and conscious effort. It should also be viewed and treated as a lifestyle change instead of just a "temporary" diet plan that is geared at simply getting rid of some extra pounds.

The amount of exercise that you do over the long haul is among the key factors to dropping the weight and keeping it off. Even if experts would suggest a few times a week if possible, there are times when they may not be enough. About 30 minutes a day, even if it's done at intervals, is the ideal amount and this is also considered as a great way to help you not only stay healthy, but to maintain a healthy weight as well.

Furthermore, studies show that losing weight and keeping it off may mean up to 60 to 90 minutes of moderate exercise daily (for most), and they again suggest breaking it into intervals. In daily activities, exercise can also be incorporated and these would include taking the stairs instead of the elevator, walking instead of driving, etc. They would also caution those who are or may be out of shape to start up slow, take it easy, and gradually build up.

Overall, you should strive to find a program that's practical and easy for you to commit and stick to. Goals that are small and achievable will enable you to see the results and in turn, they will motivate you to continue on your successful path.
