Why this one is a WINNER!

You're a new mom, you may be tired or have little time to prepare meals and, even worse, you've got some extra pounds (maybe even more than "Some"). This book can help you shed your weight in record time while still leaving you with plenty of energy. Here's what it contains: VERY EASY RECIPES that are healthy, family friendly and keep you feeling full. I loved the Vegetable Barley soup (as did my family), warm pineapple rings and southwest chicken salad. There is a STRONG EMPHASIS on solid nutrition so breast-feeding moms can be assured their babies will remain healthy...as will Mom A GREAT section which allows moms to incorporate exercise into play periods with their babies, a wonderful way to make sure you exercise....no matter what. You don't have to wait till the baby is asleep and some of the exercises (such as the Torso Stretch) include games like Peek-a-Boo. If your baby is too young for that, you can simply smile and coo and maintain involvement at whatever level your baby can handle. In some of the exercises you actually hold your baby; in others the baby can be in a baby bouncer or lie on a mat next to you. Shopping Lists that aren't overly complicated Lots of illustrations A question/answer section that covers topics such as eating foods to help combat post-partum depression (although the author is certainly not suggesting that food ALONE can cure serious depression).....adapting the plan for mothers of twins....the foods which provide the most energy...how much exercise is enough and how much is too much..and more.

I love it!!!

As a new, young mom, I was stressing out over how I was going to lose the baby weight I had gained (almost 50 pounds!!!) during my pregnancy. A friend bought me a copy of Body After Baby, and I promise you - it works! The meals are yummy and so simple. I have so much more energy and the best part, I'm almost back to my pre-baby form. Thank you, Jackie Keller!!!

Body After Baby ROCKS!

As a 2nd time new momma -- and a busy fashion & beauty publicist -- I was yearning to take off the pounds oh-so-quickly. I put on too much weight the first time around, and even though I watched it more this time, I still indulged in one too many slices of pizza (late night craving???) and too few trips to the gym. Needless to say, after my bundle of joy made his grand entrance, there was much "me" work to be done. Enter Jackie. From the moment I came home from the hospital, Jackie and her Body After Baby Book and Progam make it a no brainer for losing the weight AND feeling great. With no effort -- and all the while enjoying great food -- I was able to shed those extra baby pounds in no time. Now, if only getting junior to sleep through the night was as easy as this....

It's been two months since I had my son and I have been longing for the motivation to get back into shape. After picking up Body After Baby, I realized this was the answer. Easy to follow at home recipes and exercises, I was able to loose my baby weight and bond with my baby. I was so amazed at the types of food I was able to eat like chocolate. I had my energy back and my body!
