Weight Loss After Delivery - Eating the Wrong Foods in the Wrong Portions Guarantees Fat Storage
I've seen a lot of women join the gym after having a child in hopes of losing the pregnancy pounds they view as something similar to the plague.
It can be alarming to see the changes that often accompany childbirth.
But when it comes to weight loss after delivery I have observed the one factor that determined their success or failure was their desire.
It takes a strong desire for change to alter your eating habits for the better.
It also takes a strong desire for change to begin exercising on a regular basis.
Of course the degree of difficulty depends on your starting point.
But if you wish for weight loss after delivery there is no secret once you learn some basics about correct eating habits.
Weight loss after delivery requires some basic principals that are unchanging.
Once you have those in place you cannot fail.
It's a matter of integrating them into your daily habits.
Your goal is to utilize the stored body fat for energy.
If you continue to eat the wrong foods at the wrong times in the wrong portions, this will never happen.
Great! But what are the wrong foods for weight loss after delivery? Processed carbohydrates! Processing not only strips the food of nutrients, but does away with the water and fiber that causes the body to break down the sugars slowly.
You are left with a super high calorie nutritiously void bomb.
When you ingest whole foods, their sugars are broken down slowly to be utilized as energy.
The body will store the energy it needs for immediate use as glycogen in the muscles and liver.
If there is more sugar in the blood than can be stored in the muscles and liver, it will be stored as fat.
Not so good for weight loss after delivery.
That is why portions are of concern.
The body can only break down and store a certain amount at any given time.
Anything over and above this is stored as fat.
Small portions spread out through the day ensure a constant flow of energy with little or no chance of fat being stored.
As a side note, you can eat larger portions of lower calorie foods; there is less sugar to be broken down.
This should be of great interest to mothers desiring weight loss after delivery.
Another consideration for women seeking weight loss after delivery is your metabolism, the rate at which you body burns calories.
While eating small and often increases your metabolic rate, your activity is a huge factor.
Exercise is the perfect companion of correct eating habits.
The two together can be a powerful guarantee in directing the body to lose fat.
Many have experience increased success when limiting their high calorie/carbohydrate choices to mornings and afternoons when metabolism is typically highest.
Weight loss after delivery can be relatively simple with a little guidance on food choices and correct eating habits.
With the addition of exercise there can be nothing keeping you from experiencing great success but you.
Start today with a commitment to yourself and enjoy the contentment and happiness that comes with being fit.
