Losing the pregnancy weight can be hard especially when you don’t know who to listen to when it comes to exercise and eating. Well you don’t have to be a weight loss dummy if you just stick to some old maxims. Stereotypes like “size does matter” and “faster is better” can be helpful when applies to burning the baby fat!

Size does count:

You can’t eat out anywhere anymore without coming across a menu that super sizes everything. You can get more fries; more cheese, more bacon or you can have bottomless drinks and extra large sizes. You can order food around midnight at a drive through window or you can get take out until the early morning. It isn’t easy to sit down to a well-portioned meal which is the key to losing your tummy.

Include into your diet wholesome carbohydrates like oatmeal, powerful proteins like lean meats or egg whites and natural dairy like yogurt. You don’t have to eat less with portion sizing instead you can eat more different foods, with smaller servings of each group to make up a balanced meal.

Faster is better:

You can shorten your workout sessions by doing quality fat burning exercises. Lose your tummy by speeding up your strides during your cardio. High intensity interval training will boost your metabolism and improve your endurance. Challenge yourself with quick sprints spread throughout your jogs.

By challenging yourself and pushing your cardio harder you will strengthen your heart and have your muscles burning calories for you all day. Boosting your metabolism is the beginning of burning the baby fat. Quick Cardio sets through out the day will help you lose the pregnancy weight faster!

Moms, you can lose your tummy by following these old stereotypes. There is nothing new under the sun and sometimes the latest schemes are just traps into expensive gym bills or crazy diet fads. Try and stay positive while sticking to your plan and always have fun!
