Here\u2019s what worked for me:<\/p>\n<h4>1. STAY AWAY \/ LIMIT JUNK FOOD<\/h4>\n<p><strong>While pregnant:\u00a0<\/strong> It is so easy to let yourself have that one packet of chips, or bar of chocolate thinking \u201cI\u2019m eating for two.\u201d Fight that urge as hard as you can and avoid those aunties who are trying to overfeed you on mandazis. Trust me, snack on fruits and nuts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Post-partum:\u00a0<\/strong> This was hard for me. My craving for sugar and chocolate went into overdrive while I was breastfeeding\u2026and I did give into it. However, I limited my consumption- I permitted myself one large chocolate chip cookie a week. As the weeks went on the cravings subsided and I didn\u2019t punish myself. What I found helped with my sugar cravings was porridge \u2013 I would alternate between Uji Afya and Wimbi Afya and it really did help.<\/p>\n<h4>2. DRINK LOTS OF WATER.<\/h4>\n<p>After the baby I drank water like I was getting paid!\u00a0 Every day I had 4 litres of water for six months post-partum. I carried water in my handbag and took a litre to bed. Water helped me detoxify and I don\u2019t know the science but I imagine that the water helped turn my fat deposits into milk for baby.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Read more<a href=\"http:\/\/mumsvillage.com\/pregnancy-parenting\/baby-weight\/\" target=\"_blank\"> here!<\/a><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4>3. MODERATE EXERCISE<\/h4>\n<p><strong>While pregnant<\/strong>:\u00a0 I kept up my regular exercise routine until I was 4 months pregnant, after which I switched to walking 3 km three times a week. I tried pre-natal yoga at six months and found it fun and relaxing. When I hit 8 months I quit walking \u2013 the baby pressed heavily on my bladder. After 8 months I was too tired to do anything but lay on the couch, so I would do stretches at home \u2013 while watching a movie!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tara Gitau for MumsVillage &nbsp; MY SECOND BIGGEST CONCERN WHILE I\u00a0 WAS PREGNANT (THE PRIMARY CONCERN WAS THAT I HAD A HEALTHY BABY) WAS LOSING THE DREADED WEIGHT AFTERWARDS.
