I purchased this book for my sister-in-law who just had her first baby three months ago and is having a very hard time losing the baby weight.  I read through it with her and we used it to help her develop a workout and eating plan that would fit her schedule and help her meet her weight loss goals.  I would definitely recommend this to any new moms who are trying to lose weight in a healthy way.  The best thing about this book is the realistic perspective - it really addresses the issues and feelings of new moms and provides practical advice.  The advice is not just practical but it is doable with a new mom's schedule, energy level and general baby demands.  I think the nutrition advice that it gives is really good, too.  I like the way that it illustrates which foods provide which vitamins so you can plan your meals based on your nutritional needs.  My sister-in-law has had really low iron since the baby was born and it was nice to see a list of foods that she could eat to help bring her iron levels up.
