hard work, sweat, patience and determination, just like the rest of us.  Basically eat right and exercise a lot.  No soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fruits, vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol if that applies. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart. \nAs for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me. Good Luck!

Whoa!!  Slow down!  You're still growing.  You still need that fat.  Or at least your body does.  That's why it's not gone.  If you just have a gut, then really don't worry about it.  Do exercise!  Run, swim, bike or walk.  Be active and don't worry about losing the weight.

Try pilates type exercises...my daughter had a baby 3 months ago and is slowly getting back into shape using the pilates system...but realize that it takes time as well as exercise and diet changes to get the shape you want!  You need to consume less calories than what you burn as well as tone up the areas that have been stretched to their limits during the pregnancy!  Don't despair!  I have had 5 children...still have the love handles and earned every inch of them!

If you have six weeks try Slim in 6. With my second baby I lost 47 pounds I gained and then 5 more. You might think that is not alot but when you are 5 feet it is. The stories on the website are really inspiring.  Also I'm reading Total Body Makeover by Bob Greene.  All the stories in the book are inspiring checkout the websites.

The best way would be to exercise and eat healthy.  Denise Austin has a GREAT video called "Bounce back after baby".  She concentrates on the problem areas that new mommys tend to have.  It worked great for me and i'm sure it will for you too.  Just to let you know how well it worked for me--- I gained 39 pounds with my last baby.  After my doctor okayed me to be able to exercise again safely i started using this video and watching how i ate.  I lost a total of 69 pounds in about 8 months time.  Good luck and take care.  If i can do it, anyone can!!

I had this done a few years back.  Stock up on baby food and gatoraide.  The first few days you will not even think about eating, I PROMISE you.  I would either buy extremely lose fitting pants/shorts or a long night gown to wear.  Drink a lot of fluid...  I didn't drink enough to start and ended up severely dehydrated with my organs shutting down.  You have to tell yourself to drink, drink, drink.  Get lots of rest and don't try to stand straight up at first...  A walker may help you get around the first few days.  You can rent them at most stores such as Drugco or other pharmacies.  You may have drainage tubes, they are very irritating.  Be careful with them and drain it how the doctor tells you.  Don't be alarmed if you have a little bit of drainage one day and tons the next.  I used baby soap for baths/showers...  it was mild and non irritating.  I suggest sleeping in a recliner the first 2 weeks, you will NOT be able to lie flat on your back.  At the very least, stock up on pillows and stack them all around you on the bed to make a reclining position.  You may even want to put one under your knees.  Don't try to do to much at first, take time to heal.  You will need lots of help for awhile and then some later on.  You will need to get up and move some but take baby steps.  When you begin to eat foods, stay away from a lot of sugary things at first, you can enjoy them in smaller amounts later on.  Chew, chew, chew.  Don't swallow anything that you haven't chewed enough of.  You can get raelly sick and throw it all up.  I suggest baby shrimp.  They are tiny and packed with protein.  Umm...  There is so much, feel free to message me later on and I can tell you more.  I lost 170lbs and just had the extra skin removed almost 3 weeks ago.  Yesterday was my first day back to work.  Don't get aggrivated if you don't lose tons at first or lose a lot then none.  Be happy with yourself.  You are about to make a huge mental and physical change.  The mental stuff kicks in a few months after surgery.  Make sure you have someone you can talk too.  Let me know if you need anything else, this is just a touch of info!

If your still pregnant you can't. If your not, women gain weight in their bust, butt, and hips. Diet and exercise will help to make them go away unless your breast feeding then your stuck with them. If you are still pregnant then after you have the baby, do not breast feed and try to lose the excess pounds. They should be the first thing to go.

Stop playing the victim and never put your finger down your throat again that is so silly you are better than that and can fight this with some inner strength. \n\nIf you don't have access to a gym you can still modify this plan. If I were you I would consider gym membership with a creche for your baby. I have been where you are and understand but don't isolate yourself get back into the real world and meet some women just like you who have had kids and want to gain back their phyisic and fitness. \n\nIf you want to do this it is for life so you need to totally change your way of eating and exercising. This is not a diet rather than a healthy eating plan for life. So no more talking diet cause it means time limit. \n\nHere are the golden rules: \nInitially cut down to 1200 (women) - 1500 (men) calories. \nExercise 6 times per week for 1 hours a day. Do three weight sessions and three cardio sessions. No gym involved. \nDon't eat carbs after 4pm, never eat carbs within 2 hours of exercise or within 1 hour of exercise. \nDrink 3 litres of water per day. You can have a green tea at the end of the day. \nLimit your fruit in take to 2 pieces per day. \nNever eat dinner after 6pm.\nAdopt of low GI eating plan this is sustainable for life!\nMake low fat dairy choices \n\nFollow this menu plan as a suggestion: \nBreakfast 7am - 1 cup hot water w lemon\n20 minutes later have a bowel of oats w water (no honey) OR\nfruit salad w low GI soy yogurt\nSnack 10am - pear or apple (both low GI)\nLunch 12.30pm - muligrain sandwich w 50g tuna & salad (no butter)\nSnack 3pm - low GI yogurt OR skim berry smoothie (no honey or banana) plenty of ice, 1/2 cup skim milk & 1/4 cup yogurt\nDinner 5.30pm - 120g grilled lean meat/fish/prawns/tofu patties (not fried) w spinach salad & mixed vegies (no whites, carbs) OR 3 egg white/soy omlette with ham, cheese and tomato\nSnack - 1 scoop of low cal low fat ice cream (if hungry)\n\nExercise is must be intense. Refer to www.bodybuilding.com for your weights routine. Never do weights two consecutive days have a cardio day in between. \n\nCardio needs to include running, go hard up stair wells and cycling. You get the most benefits from exercise when your body is totally fatigued and this is when you see changes. \n\nTo maintain you can increase calories to 1500 (women) - 1800 (men) and reduce exercise sessions to 3-4 times per week. If weight creeps up again due to holiday period etc.. go back to 1200 (women) - 1500 (men) cal and 6 sessions again. \n\nGood luck it worked for me it can work for anyone.

I had a baby three months ago and had almost no problem getting back down to my normal size because I exercised right up until the day I gave birth.  \n\nIf you didn't stay in shape before giving birth, it might be a little harder.  You must ease yourself into a workout again.  Check with your doctor first then once you get the OK, target your problem areas.  Don't expect walking or other cardio exercise to be your only answer to getting back in shape.  Some form of resistance training is a must whether it is moderate weight lifting, or body sculpting using weights, bands and/or balls, etc.  Resistance training will actually build up your muscle and help you burn fat faster and raise your metabolism.  Pilates is another great, low impact way to get your abs and waistline back in shape.\n   \nAlso, are you breastfeeding?  That is one of the best ways to get your belly down after giving birth.  Plus, it uses up calories.  However, if you overcompensate for your lost calories by eating too much, you will gain weight.  \n    \nAs far as your diet is concerned, try to eat 5 or 6 small, healthy meals a day because this will keep your metabolism going.  Also, try to choose healthy options that are high in whole grains and protein and low in sugar and fat.  You can indulge in some not-so-healthy things but watch your portions.\n\n    I know that it is so hard to find the time and energy to work out once you have a new baby.  Just make sure to find at least 10 minutes here and there to work out.  If you can manage to do that 3 times a day, then you're off to a great start and can build up from there.

Just exercise and take your time to get back into shape...that "extra" skin will go away...you may not ever have the flat tummy you once had, but you certainly will "shed" the gummy extra skin that you have right now.  I can remember how mortified I was following my first child...but it will get better : )  Enjoy your little one, he will grow up fast!!!

that is why u must loss ur belly fat \nand i have solution to ur belly fat \n Small Ways to Lose a Big Belly\n\n1. Fried foods are garbage. Potato chips, French fries and onion rings are pregnant with saturated fat and calories, yet they contain zero healthy or muscle-promoting nutrients. If you're on a fat-loss plan, simply eliminate fried foods. That alone will allow you to shed lard quickly\n\n2. Drink a glass of skim milk as soon as you wake up. Some quick protein before you even step into the shower will energize you and end those morning cravings for Egg McMuffins and pastry.\n\n3. Do 2 minutes of pushups every morning. It's tough to exercise as soon as you roll out of bed, but you can burn off 21 calories a day--2 1/2 pounds in a year.\n\n\n4. Toss a quart of water in your briefcase. Water helps you burn calories--96 calories just by carrying a bottle while you walk for 20 minutes. Serve it over ice in your office and your body will burn 31 calories warming it to 98.6. Then there's the aerobic effect of all those bathroom runs.\n\n5. Want to look better naked? Try drinking half as much alcohol. Alcohol contains calories. You may drink like a fish, but booze isn't water. Even a light beer has more than 100 calories. Booze makes you store fat. Your body sees alcohol as a poison, and tries desperately to get rid of it. Your liver stops processing all other calories until it has dealt with the alcohol. So anything else you eat during the time you're drinking is more likely to end up as fat. Alcohol also lowers testosterone. With more abdominal fat, testosterone drops.\n\nmore in this site\nhttp://www.westcoastorganics.com/pages/14_ways.htm

Get off your butt and exercise.  I always want to roll my eyes at people that "dont have time to exercise".  Stop watching Grey Anatomy or whatever every night, and Ill bet you find an hour or two right there for exercise.  My wife is 32 weeks pregnant, works 50 hours a week + commute, and still manages to get in 4 1 hour workouts a week.  Talk about not having time.\nThat being said, if you insist on doing it via diet only, cut your calorie intake to less than 1500 per day.  Realize that you will likely be hungry, and that as soon as you stop with this, you will put the weight right back on, plus you will proibably gain a little extra, as you will also lose some muscle mass, which slows your metabolism.,  The only way to lose weight permanently is with exercise.

yuppp! I struggled with that little bit of "baby fat" about a month ago.  I hated it, I was tiny but I still had that little pooch and I wanted it GONE.  So what I did was the stairmaster at the gym..It rocks and really toned up my sides. Also I did pilates and I ate lots of fruits and veggies.  Also, my number one fat burner was jump roping!  It was fun and easy!! try it and I swear you WILL lose weight FAST!

my husband changed his diet - he cut out fried food, sweet snacks, ate frequently.....and he lost weight but not in his face or belly.  Then he got a job where he was on his feet 10 hrs a day and walked a lot.  He lost the chins, cheeks, man boobs, and fat neck.  If I were you I would eat frequent small meals w/o fried food and walk, walk often as you can!

Yes when I was preganant at age 19yrs., awhile ago. I was so depressed, everyday for a snack I ate a box of chicken & biscuit crackers and downed a gallon of milk, in less than an hour. Needless to say I was 300lbs by the end and had to do a whole lot of dancing to work it off. It was worth it though.
