If you are thinking that I am gonna tell you breastfeed to lose weight. Sorry, it did not help me at all. Infant breastfeeding my baby made me so hungry and I did not have the opportunity to cook healthy so I gained. 

This Post is about the 5 powerful tips to lose weight naturally, especially, after a C-section. I will also share my favorite under 2 minutes recipe, which was my favorite and is extremely healthy and you will not get bored of eating. 

5. Sleep Well 

 

Do you know that weight loss game is about hormones? Different hormones give different signal to your brains. There is a hunger hormone called: Ghrelin and the satiate hormone, that tells that we are full and stop eating is called “ Leptin “ . If you do not sleep properly, your hunger increases by 25%. This study was done by “University Of Chicago Medical Center”, they found out people who slept less than 4 hours properly,  leptin is reduced by 18% and ghrelin is raised by 28%. 

This means they will eat more and all that extra calories will be converted to fat.If you control your hormones, which s little calorie deficit stage, that is gonna a double advantage when you gonna melt fat like  anything. Tests were done on leptin (Leptin is a hormone that lets your brain know that you are full after eating) and ghrelin (lets your brain know that you are hungry) levels after only 4 hours of sleep showed that leptin is reduced by 18% and ghrelin is raised by 28%. This increases your appetite by 24% .

Because you have just gone a major operations, Your body is busy healing you. Help your body to repair the healing. Omega 3 to Omega 6 ratio in the diet should be 1:1, but we consume way too much omega 6. In the form of vegetable oil, soybean oil.
