It seems like social media has many people fooled about what you're suppose to look like after giving birth! Every woman is different and what may take you two months may take another woman a lot longer. We are all looking at the Instagram models who have had surgery and thinking this is normal. I personally lost a lot of my weight fast twenty eight pounds to date three months post baby but the next woman may not be able to do that. Support the moms who have just had a baby and had to adjust their lifestyles because of their bundle of joy.  What you did during and before pregnancy is important for a healthy pregnancy. I had a very active lifestyle.  I worked out and tried to eat well.  Breast feeding also helps with weight loss in addition to be being very healthy for your little one. Please leave your suggestions for the moms who are trying to lose their baby weight the right way. Stop the body shaming!!!  Below are some helpful tips from parents magazine....

Do you have a vision board? If so, what do you plan on accomplishing this year and how do you plan on reaching this goal?

So, I kept seeing a bunch of different challenges on my Facebook and I decided I wanted to take a different spin on it with my Facebook friends.  I started the 30 day water challenge which basically just means that for 30 days you are to only have water to drink with your meals, etc. (No Alcohol) I figure what a great way for us to discipline ourselves doing something good for our bodies. Grab a few friends and challenge them to do this.  Drink up and check in periodically and let me know how it's going.  

What are some of the ways you stay healthy? Share your tips so others can benefit as well.  A lot of times people make excuses for why they can't keep their weight under control.  One of the main things I hear is I'm too busy, I have kids, I can't afford the gym.  There are so many things we can do- walk on our lunch breaks, take the stairs instead of the elevator drink water instead of soda. While sitting watching your favorite program grab some weights and do a few sets of arm curls.
