If you are nursing, that will help. The pounds melted off me last time (and I’m hoping this time).
Start simple – take walks with the baby while the weather is nice. Get very light weights (like 2-3 lbs) and start some SIMPLE weight lifting. Also, try getting an excersize ball. I read that even just sitting on those helps strengthen and tone your muscles.
The basic way to excersize is to alternate cardio and weight lifting every day. This gives your muscles a chance to rest/repair from one way of doing things.
My best advice is not to overdue it. Its easy to start off gung ho and then taper out.
Also, find something you like, so it doesn’t become a chore.
Now, after writing that list, I do have to say its so much easier said than done…good luck!
