After the Q & A session that I held last week, I realized that one of the subjects that interests you guys the most is how I managed to get back to my initial weight just a few months after giving birth.
I’m not going to lie to you: I don’t obsessively pay attention to what I eat, I never count calories, and I’m not a sports freak! Below you’ll find a few tips that I follow, in order to try maintaining a healthy weight!
1- Morning Secret Recipe:
2- Healthy Snacking:
3- Pick one big meal only:
If I know that we’re staying home, I eat whatever I want for lunch, and then at night either have a salad or (and this is my favorite one in Summer) I have a huge bowl of yogurt with a pinch of dried mint and some cucumbers! Not only is this delicious and light, but it is also fulfilling, refreshing, and burns fat!
4- Portions are Key:
All of what I said above is useless if you don’t pay attention to portions. Yes, I do eat from all types of food, but no I don’t binge. I almost never do. I always make sure that my portions are normal (not too small; not too big). I eat slowly and stop eating immediately when I feel full. For instance, If I feel like having a pizza, I don’t go for an entire one. I go for half of the portion. If I feel like having a chocolate, then I eat half a bar. I truly consider this is one of the main reasons why I maintain a healthy weight… And I advise you all to do the same!
Finally, I try to jog 2 to 3 times per week, but this doesn’t always work (mommies you’ll understand)!
Love,
N.
