Season 4, Episode 11 - Ask Me Anything: Losing the Baby Weight, Grief & Food Tracking
Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | Others
In this “Ask Me Anything” episode, I’m addressing two big questions that I’m asked frequently: “Should I keep a food diary and do I have to log my food forever?" and "How do I lose weight after a pregnancy and/or the loss of a loved one?"
These are both pretty common questions without simple answers, so if you’re in the midst of grief or caring for a newborn, or both, I hope this episode will be helpful to you.
Tracking your food can be a helpful tool for mindful eating, getting a realistic picture of your diet, and making adjustments for better results. However, it's not necessary to track forever so I’m sharing how to make it work for you and when you may want to take a break.
When it comes to losing weight after pregnancy or a major loss, caring for your nervous system, and nourishing yourself should come first. It’s ok to want to lose extra weight or feel like yourself again, but being patient and gentle with your body is the most important thing. I’ll share ways to do that along with how to approach fat loss in a healthy way during challenging times.
