Postpartum Weight Loss: Strategies for Shedding Remaining Pounds

Question
I am 5 1/2 months post pregnant and still have that aggrivating 10 pounds. I am not nursing. What is the best way for me to get rid of this last bit of weight?

Answer
Aimee,
The best way to lose those last few pounds is to watch WHAT you eat as well as HOW MUCH you eat.  Eat at least 3 meals a day with small snacks in between and plan ahead!  Eat from all of the food groups and watch the sweets and high fat foods.  Drink lots of water and with your doctors permission exercise on a regular basis, even if it is taking the baby for a walk every morning!  

I DO offer online services if you need a little extra help!  I offer menus, nutritional analysis of what you are currently eating along with recommendations of what to change, etc...  You can check out my web site at: www.Nutrifocus.net.  If you have other questions on my services email me at Kim@nutrifocus.net.
Good luck and congrats on the baby!
