Answers:
You can try exercising in the morning before you eat anything. This way you will burn 3x more fat and you will keep burning fat throughout the entire day. Another thing I would suggest is getting rid of the banana. Banana has a lot more sugar than other fruit. Have an apple instead or anything else, but not mango of course. Make sure you don't have lots of nuts. Go for 12 pieces of unsalted nuts or anywhere under 20 pieces. Don't have ice cream every day. it's better to take it out of your diet. Have it once a week to treat yourself. You will feel a lot better. Another thing is substituting fried chicken for something else. Have grilled chicken, tuna or salmon. Fish is a lot more healthy than chicken, so if you decide to have grilled chicken instead, don't have it every single day. Switch between fish, tuna and grilled chicken :) Have some fruit with your breakfast and if you want, you can substitute cereal for oatmeal. It will fulfill you a lot more than cereal but cereal is also good. I have cereal every day for breakfast and I pretty much enjoy it :)! Good luck
Jessica had lots of good suggestions. Here are a few more.
Change your milk to 1%
Up your water intake to 8 oz, 8 times! You will find that to be lots, but it works. Your body needs it. Think of it as your body fuel.... Your complection will thank you also!
Chart your calories....you need at least 1200 cal per day and you might be surprised that you aren't taking in enough!
And lastly.....Your belly fat will disappear in time. Don't fret. You can always say, hey I just had a 2nd baby! Give me some time!
You aren't doing anthing wrong. Some women are slim , no belly, shortly after birth.
Others have a tummy and it stays that way for sometime no matter what you do.
Relax and enjoy just being a mom. In time you may see that belly fat disappear,
and if not it's really not the end of the world. We can't have it all.
it's not wat you eat it's how much you eat try salads for lunch, fish cut the sugars completly an instead of white rice brown rice wheat bread start running or walking everyday whites an sugars are what makes it hard remember the sugars CUT THEM OUT
