A. Hello mam, It’s too soon to start any kind of weight loss dieting as you are breastfeeding mom and you and your child need proper nutrition and also your body needs time to recover from all the losses and changes that happened during pregnancy and post delivery For now have small and frequent meals Reduce the intake of excess ghee ( 2tsp is enuf ) , white sugar ( take jaggery instead ) , fried food like namkeen and samosa, packaged foods Take healthy fats from dry fruits, Add more fresh fruits and vegetables Water 10 to 15 glasses per day Start with any diet post 6 months till then eat mindfully but nutritious food

A. The first step to losing weight after a C-section delivery is to consult your doctor about the same. Since it involves a surgical procedure, the doctor can tell you the best time that you should rest for your body to heal, and when you can hit the gym again, or start a diet.
