Hey guys

I just wanted to share my story of how I lost my pregnancy weight - the healthy way ... I know it seems too impossible to even sound true. But trust me when I say that I didn’t diet, I didn’t exercise away in a gym nor did I spend hours for exercising at home.

So here goes my secrect - I did all the household work. Yes....there you go ... I revealed the secret. A month after I delivered, I took over the entire household tasks including cooking, washing vessels, washing clothes (just putting them in the wsahing machine), drying them, bathing my baby, taking care of him, sweeping and moping the floor.

Ofcouse I didn’t do all this at one go. I planned my chores for the day in such a way that by the time I want to relax, I took a few veggies that I wanted to prepare for the next day, sat beside my baby and cut them by talking to him.

My appetitie became so huge. I ate anything and everything but I kept losing weight steadily ... :yes:. I infact grew more slimmer than how I was before :bananabut as I said, I never compromised on eating.

So my mantra for losing the pounds steadily is to do all the household work.
Now the next tough part was maintaing the new slim me once I joined my office back. And I did figure out a way for that too :idea.... Simple, I took my cab a kilometer away from my home and got down a kilometer away from home. Once back too, I took rest for one hour and did the work at home. I was able to maintain it that way.

Another tip which helps a long way is eating porridge and fruits instead of junk and fatty foods. Well I didn’t give up on junk foods. Instead just had them once a week. I kind of kept a timetable - 1st Friday is time for a sub from subway, 2nd Friday chat items, 3rd Friday restaurant food, 4th Friday is always pizza.
Some people might argue that maybe its in my genes. Well no, my mom, my grandmoms, my aunts .... everybody are on the heavier side and grew more heavier after delivering.

Wishing all my friends here luck with their weight loss regime....:thumbsup

Hi Bharati

The entire process took me around three months. The first month afte my baby was born i didnt do much strenous work. I took of the baby, cooked and just did some basic cleaning like washing clothes and vessels and all. From the second month, i started eating rotis both in the afternoon and evening (well the quantity here doesnt matter right .... ) so i had around 10 rotis.....

Since i am a vegetarian, i usually end up making vegetables into curries only. I never made sambar and rasam and stuff.....so had rotis and curries for lunch and dinner.

In addition from the second month onwards, i started, sweeping, mopping, dusting and every other work.

But i made sure i had adequate sleep also.

Sorry but I cannot believe that you lost weight by doing the household chores only and no diet and no other form of exercise. May be your body matabolism is that way. If this is a way to lose, my mother should have been the slimmest person in the world, she used to do all the chores and also walk around 5 to 7 kilometers. Even now, my cousin does all the work but no use. My friend who lives nearby, does all the work , she even washes clothes manually but did not lose weight. Then she joined a gym and then started losing weight. Once she stopped going to gym after a year, she is not even able to manage the weight even with an hour's walk everyday over and above the house chores.
