March 20th, 2010i want my flat tummy back!
Who needs a quick weight loss solution when lack of sleep and constant breastfeeding are doing the great job in getting me back to my pre-pregnancy weight? Right, even if I eat a lot, I still am losing weight! That’s good news for me coz spring is here and soon it’s time to shed off those thick layers of winter clothing. Which means if I want to look good for the season, the work should be done ASAP!
My concern is the flab in my tummy. I have been advised by my friend who has 4 kids to use an abdominal binder right after giving birth to get my tummy back to its pre-pregnancy form. I didn’t take it seriously though. I always forget to wear the binder especially that I’m always busy. I just found out from an article today that it really works wonders in making the tummy flat again. According to articlesbase.com “Abdominal binding has been used to, flatten the belly, speed up weight loss, tone the muscles of the abdomen, promote good posture during breastfeeding, reposition the womb, dispel the lochia and eliminate stretch marks.”
Hollywood celebrities such as Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba, Nicole Kidman and Gwen Stefani are among those women who have used binders after their delivery and got their flat tummy back fast. The article said that for best results, the abdominal binder should be worn for at least 6-8 weeks after delivery.
I hope it’s not yet too late. Tomorrow will be my eight week since I give birth. I should have known earlier about this!!!
