As someone whose sister and cousins gave birth to many children, I know how difficult it can, sometimes, be for women to lose weight and get in shape after giving birth. Thankfully, as 'How To Lose Weight Fast And Get Your Body Back After Pregnancy' by Louisa Jones demonstrates, that the journey back to having a great figure does not have to be difficult, though it does require effort and commitment.The most interesting chapter in the book, for me, was the one about Positive Mindset. It underlined something from my friend's experience. That particular friend gave birth on two occasions. First time it took her almost year and a half to lose weight and she struggled mightily. She was constantly busy, stressed and ate a lot of unhealthy, sugary food. Mind you, that women was on a brink of getting a black belt in taekwondo shortly before her first pregnancy, so she was in top shape. Being a smart cookie :), she learned her lessons, stayed positive, maintained a nurturing household (with the help of a great husband), took much better care of herself and after giving birth to a second son three years later, it took her weeks, not months, to get back in shape. Additionally book covers:1. Proper diet for new moms, so called 'The Smart Moms Diet'. Great name by the way :)2. Simple workout routines that can be done at home.3. What to do about stretch marks.4. Importance of breastfeeding for reducing 'mommy tummy' and more.Overall, this is a great guide for any new mom who is serious about getting back in shape.
