Woman struggle to lose weight after being pregnant, but is losing a lot too much weight also an issue?
I know the usual thing is that woman struggle to lose weight after being pregnant, but is losing a lot too much weight also a a known problem post pregnancy? She has always been a petite woman, but recently people that we haven't seen in a long time have been pointing it out to us. Our entire family, my parents and her parents see each other on a weekly basis, so Im guessing thats why we dont notice, but a lot have said she looks thin, almost sickly. She has some sort of birth control device implanted in her and we're thinking this maybe it. I have heard of this happening but I just wanted to get some other opinions, we have a doctors appointment this week and we'd like to know what everyone else thinks. Thanks, all your opinions are appreciated.
hey women dont eally struggle to get the weight off, its usually that women refuse to do much about their weight...
i personally was alittle lazy and it took me over 10 months to go back to my original weight...
some women do take it to extremes, and push them selves too hard and end up losing way too much.
when you mention the birth control thing - well, this could also be the reason.
im not sure with the "implanted stuff" - but ive heard of many women either piling n or losing weight while on birth control pills, so this might have the same effect...
make sure she eats healthy and heaps of nutrients, meats, fish, veggies, fruit... variety of everything...
maybe its just the extra stuff she's been doing, now that baby is here...
see a doc... usualyl they have a better understanding and idea of what is going on....
good luck
