For many years it was believed that once a woman became pregnant she should just lounge on the couch and rest for hours on end, each and every day.

Here's the story…I Looked In the Mirror And Saw a “Mom Body”… I just had my first child… and although I was so excited about the beautiful little girl I had brought into this world… I wasn’t so excited about what it had done to my body! All those “trouble areas” before looked WAY worse now… My thighs looked huge… My stomach wasn’t as tight anymore, I had gained at least 10 pounds of tummy fat…My buns weren’t holding that nice tight shape… And my breasts were so much bigger… they were starting to sag! How I lost the pounds, toned up, and got my body back! You know, some women just think after you have a baby you have to give up – that you’ll never get your nice, slim body back again… Not only is this not true, but it just isn’t healthy!

In fact, what I discovered is there are only a few key principles and basic strategies that can make you TEN TIMES more likely to lose the weight you want… Here's the problem... There's No Simple Guide, I searched an searched for a good simple guide to dropping those extra pounds.You know, a booklet that was low on fluff and just tells me what I need to know about getting back into shape.
