Weight loss after pregnancy takes time, but it's possible. Concentrate on eating a healthy diet and including physical activity in your daily routine.
During a nutrition therapy visit, a nutritionist will look closely at your eating habits and will help you set new nutrition goals. Your nutritionist will tell you how many calories to eat per day to lose weight steadily and safely. He or she can help you plan a healthy, nutritious diet.
When you were pregnant, you might have adjusted your eating habits to support your baby's growth and development. After pregnancy, proper nutrition is still important — especially if you're breast-feeding. Making wise choices can promote healthy weight loss after pregnancy. Eat more plant foods, including fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Choose lean proteins from a variety of sources, control portion sizes and limit sweets and salt.

By helping you understand how your body responds to food, what foods are best for both you and your baby and how to eat in such a way that improves efficiency of all your body's internal processes.
