Losing Baby Weight (Take 2)

June 29, 2009

Brad – as I’m wanting to lose “baby weight” after my 6th baby just 7 weeks ago I’m wondering your thoughts since I’m a nursing mother and getting enough nutrients to be sure my baby girl has enough. Is that not a concern since you actually do eat every day? Or would a 16 hour fast be better nutritionally for my baby?
Thanks so much –

From the research I have read, a women’s breast milk is unaltered during periods of short term fasting. The common belief is that the nutrients in breast milk come from the mother body-stores and not the immediate food derived sources.
I personally know of two women who have successfully lost baby weight while following ESE. First was my wife, and second was Lindsay, whom you can read about HERE.

PS- This is one of those touchy amost medical questions, so I should point out that my comments are […]

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
