how to lose the baby weight.

i'm going to be honest with you; getting my pre-baby body back has been the furthest thing from my mind these past couple of months. maybe it's because i've been lucky and have been wearing my regular jeans for a while (although not if i can wear leggings instead...), maybe it's because the idea of doing a true workout makes me stabby, maybe it's that this little one is more interesting to me than the state of my body, who knows.what i do know is that taking care of an infant makes it easier to shed those last couple of pounds. i mean, it's like having a personal trainer who will never let you stop moving and screams at you if you do. i realized this pretty early on, and decided to make it work for my best interest.here's my fool-proof plan for losing the baby weight*. new moms, all you'll need is your newborn and most of your sanity intact. you can thank me later.1) walk up and down the one flight of stairs in your house fifty times. do this while holding a 10.5 pound baby.2) wear your 10.5 pound baby in a sling carrier all morning so she sleeps. bonus if you walk around and fold laundry while doing so.3) breastfeed if you can. you will then understand the meaning of the phrase "sucking the life out of me". i'm no scientist but i think the calories get sucked out too...BONUS TIP: if you're lucky enough to have a gassy/colicky/active baby, spend additional time each day bouncing and swaying your baby to soothe them, preferably when you would be eating a meal or drinking your coffee. less calories ingested, more calories burned!there you go. this is what's working for me. just follow my tips for losing the baby weight and you'll be back in pre-baby shape in no time!*this plan is neither fool-proof nor is it an actual plan. it's actually just a description of my daily routine. i hope it didn't take you this long to pick up on the snark.
