The challenges a woman faces during the gestation period and the experience of childbirth are, without a doubt, incomparable to any other life experience.
Yet it doesn't stop there; soon after giving birth, a new challenge arises.
Getting back into shape post-pregnancy takes effort, and when you factor in the hormonal changes involved after giving birth, the task may seem overwhelming.
But don't give up. Apart from signing up for post-natal exercise classes, below are other effective things you can do.
Walking your way to fitness
If your doctor has cleared you, walking is a good start. Start slow and use support if needed.
It's a low-impact form of exercise, but it's beneficial nonetheless.
Once you've regained strength, try to cover more distance, but do not overexert yourself by pushing too hard.
Swimming and water aerobics: Excellent cardiovascular workouts
You can improve cardio health, build endurance and lose weight simultaneously.
Plus, getting a dose of Vitamin D is great for skin health and mood, but remember to slap on sunblock with SPF 50+ when you are in the pool.
Successful weight loss strategies
Did you know you must combine regular exercise and a healthy calorie-controlled diet to lose fat successfully [1]?
Unfortunately, you cannot lose weight healthily if you just do one or the other.
A study shows that "you get the biggest bang for your buck by combining a healthy weight-loss diet, which in this case means reducing calories by cutting fat intake and boosting the consumption of low-calorie foods, with regular, moderate-intensity aerobic exercise."
Other studies have reported other successful weight loss strategies, including preparing meals at home and eating less often at restaurants [2].
The Solution To Persistent And Stubborn Fat That's Resistant To Diet And Exercise
Losing weight seems relatively straightforward and easily doable on your own, but there are instances where it's not.
How much fat we store or lose is dependent on our genetic makeup [3].
For example, the appearance of fat around the thighs and certain other parts despite having a slender or slim waistline.
These stubborn pockets of fat are not easily eliminated with diet and exercise.
Vaser Liposuction for safe, permanent fat removal
Vaser Liposuction is an ultrasonic-assisted liposuction technique meant to correct disproportionate body shape and remove stubborn body fat that does not respond to diet and exercise.
The degree of skin firming following Vaser Liposuction will depend on the patient's age and skin quality.
Compared to traditional liposuction, recovery time after Vaser Liposuction is faster, and patients can return to their daily routine within 2 to 3 days.
