We caught up with actress Mahima Chaudhary recently and to be sure, the actress is in fab form after having a baby! And if she can do it, so can you! Here, Mahima explains what egged her into post-pregnancy fitness and provides some tips!
"She never had the plan to get back in shape after her pregnancy. She was happy the way she was, until one day she started feeling tired and restless. she then decided to work out a little bit to keep herself fit! Here's what she did:
First off, she didn't attempt anything on her own; she got in touch with a friend who put her onto a full-time personal trainer.
She worked out a little bit for half an hour thrice a week. She suggest that this is normal and very helpful, rather than working out rigourously everyday for hours together.
She would say that you shouldn't rush into reducing or dieting. Just let it happen, give it time.
She stopped eating fried foods, although she was tempted to. New moms generally have the tendency to eat a lot of the wrong things -- she avoided them.
She used to sleep a lot, compensating for all the sleepless nights she had before delivery. Good sleep and rest is most important, your body needs to rest.
She started working out only four months post-delivery. That, she would say, is the right time, when a mother gains enough strength to start working out.
She then started reducing. When she went for shows or events, people appreciated the way she looked. That motivated her more and kept her going and finally, today she feel good about herself and want to remain fit and in shape!"
