Instructions

Get Her Body

1

Stay realistic when it comes to shedding pregnancy pounds after giving birth. Although Keri was photographed looking slim and trim a mere two weeks post-partum, the average womans body takes time to return to a healthy size.

2

Stay active during pregnancy like Keri, by continuing moderate exercise. Keri kept in shape by alternating between hour long workouts on Pilates machines (called a Reformer) every other day, and daily 20 minutes walks around a hilly park near her home.

3

Keep active in your day to day life, especially when working with a busy parenting schedule. Although Keri often skips daily workouts, she walks every day (running errands) and carries the weight of her son. Simply using the weight of your baby (in a pouch or baby carrier) while staying active can help burn calories throughout the day.

4

Eat everything in moderation. Keri is describes herself as naturally thin, but she also enjoys healthy choices of foods such as vegetables, eggs and salad. She values nutrition even more because she is breastfeeding and she skips unhealthy desserts and sweets whenever possible.

5

Try breastfeeding post-partum to help reduce weight and burn calories. Although Keri cited breastfeeding and good genes as the main aid in her weight loss for new mothers who cannot breastfeed continue to pay the same attention to proper nutrition. Try to treat your body with care and balance after giving birth and you will feel great in no time.
