Mum shares her secret of losing postpartum weight and the big contributor was her choice of lunches. Sudhi shares her lunch plan for 30 days. Read on!
To lose post baby weight I found many kind of diets, intermittent fasting, exercise etc on web. But I felt lost because was not sure who to follow or what to follow at the same time I wasn’t ready to get a big hole in my pocket. Being at home new mom, I found difficult to take out time for myself. By evening I was exhausted and my health was getting worse while it is important to be healthy mom for the baby.
Finally, I found my ways towards healthy and nutritional eating. I took a 30 days challenge and I lost 5.1 kilos in a month. Below is my lunch menu for 30 days which I followed:
Day 1 Lunch: Sprouted (at home) Green Moong, brinjal sauté in extra virgin olive oil with Himalayan pink salt and chilli flakes, Brown Rice and Salad
