Betty Baxter and Breastfeeding
What’s often the first thing on a woman’s mind after they given birth to a child ‘How am I going to get back to my pre-baby body?’. In the past, you may have attempted to lose weight in a less than healthy way – but now that you’re eating for not just you, but also your baby while breastfeeding, weight loss the quick way is not the best option! Your baby needs the best nutrition you can give it, and that starts with making the right food choices. You may actually be doing harm to your growing baby if you cut out specific food groups or limit your food intake.
The right foods can become your allies in your battle against the baby-bulge. Once the first three months of breastfeeding are up, you’re free to start on Betty. To get started you will need a ‘Weight Loss Guide’ to ensure you maintain a steady weight loss, with no more than 2kg loss per month. The ‘Jump’ phase will allow you to start on a healthy eating path with all the right foods to nourish your precious little one. It’s also important while breastfeeding to include high calcium foods in your eating plan.
When your breastfeeding days are over, you can start your healthy weight loss plan with Betty on the Skip & Hop phases (outlined in the Weight Loss Plan). This will allow you to achieve weight loss of up to 1kg per week. Betty will see you to losing the remaining weight and getting you back to your pre-baby body!
