The experience of flow is still one of the least understood phenomena in sport. And yet it is one of the richest, most memorable experiences an athlete will ever know. Some call it a natural “high.” Others refer to it as being “in a zone.” Whatever the label, flow is that elusive and desired state of consciousness that athletes, coaches, and psychologists have tried to understand, harness, and employ to their benefit ever since Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi first coined the term back in the early 1970s.

How do you lose that baby fat?

The “Fit Yummy Mummy” Review

From : www.FitYummyMummy.com

This weight loss and lifestyle program for busy new moms is a comprehensive guide to one of the most challenging and frustrating issues faced by new mothers today: how to lose that baby fat and get their pre-baby body back.

Many young mothers watch the changes that their bodies go through during pregnancy, they eat carefully but after their baby is born, they are several pounds (or kilos) over their pre-pregnant weight.  The baby cries for attention, the husband needs loving, siblings want some mom time and along with other responsibilities (cooking, cleaning, organizing etc) moms have difficulty finding the information they need for regaining their pre-pregnancy figure.

There is no shortage of fitness, diet and fat loss products on the market today. There are conflicting arguments almost anywhere you look on weight loss, fat loss and fitness for women, both online, at your local library, through personal trainers, or from the (less reputable but very common) ranks of wannabe experts, also known as (usually male) people with no qualifications or practical experience who are self professed experts writing for a magazine.

But if you really want to know how to lose that baby fat, take a look at this, because, as the title suggests, this product is specifically for moms wanting to get fit.  Literally all aspects of losing fat and getting fit are covered – and the best part is that it is written specifically for busy moms.

“Fit Yummy Mummy” by Holly Rigsby

Holly’s program is both chatty and genuinely educational – it’s kind of like having a friendly conversation with a close friend that happens to be a fitness expert. A bonus to this is that as it is all written down and you get emails to keep you on track, so you can refresh your understanding of any topic at any given time, simply by scrolling back to the relevant section!

Because it’s so friendly and understanding of the unique situations moms face, the tone of the book presents a welcome contrast to most other fitness products. It is full of common sense (that we need to be reminded of when we are so sleep deprived we can’t think!) and its informative, without being unrealistic. Maybe your husband thinks 2 hour workouts, or zero-carb diets will fit you up fast and have you feeling sexy and skinny in a week, but that isn’t the kind of regime you can keep up, especially if you are breastfeeding.

It won’t take you long to see that Holly knows what she’s talking about when it comes to mom’s lifestyles (that’s because she’s a mom too).

More than weight loss tips after having baby

There’s a quick section on getting started and goal setting along with some morale-boosting advice on how to stay on track throughout the program. Then it’s straight into an action plan to get you started on the path to burning off that baby fat and getting your body back.

The Supportive Nutrition Plan is next – this is particularly helpful! Every conceivable nutrition issue is covered, from how often you should eat – to what you should have in your pantry. You don’t have to be mega strict but we all know that what is in the pantry is simply irresistible. If you don’t put temptation in there, you can’t eat it!

Holly’s program also includes a ‘Create a Menu Planner’ to help you in planning every meal to make sure you lose that baby fat successfully.

Next, the Fit Yummy Mummy fat loss workouts are covered. They have easy to follow explanations of the why’s and the how’s for every part of the workout program.   The workout plan even offers four different formats that you can plug into your lifestyle, that’s something you won’t find in many other fat loss programs on the market.

My favorite part of the workout section is that regardless of your exercise (or lack of exercise) background, there is a workout designed specifically for you.  And no matter what your fitness level currently is, none of the workout programs require more than 90 minutes a week.

Finally, there’s a section called the Busy Mom’s Fat Loss Companion crammed with easy to use tools and resources like a goal setting sheet, fitness journal, exercise descriptions and even a ready made grocery list. Holly has figured out every excuse and obstacle busy moms have and addressed them all so you can find out how to lose that baby fat.

Looks like a lot of reading?

It’s not, it’s really user-friendly.

It is step by step, with plenty of photos and descriptions to ensure that you are doing everything you can to succeed. It’s packed with sound practical advice and the whole thing is laid out in a very logical and easy-to-understand format. It’s not just a quick fix for now either. What you learn will keep you fit and slim always because it’s a lifestyle change.

The ebook program can be downloaded almost immediately (no waiting two weeks for the post) – including the Quick Start Guide to make sure you start acting (and seeing results) fast.  Fit Yummy Mummy is a light and easy read  (no incomprehensible scientific terminology in here!) Just fast actionable advice on exercises you can do and meals you’ll want to eat.

Follow up e-mail coaching

In my opinion, the follow up e-mail coaching series from the author is one of the best parts. Good resolutions last a day at most, so when you check your email and find a short reminder to tackle something, that keeps you on track. You’ll get daily fitness tips and even healthy recipes.  While most moms have the best of intentions to lose that baby fat, following through is tough.  This follow up e-mail coaching is the perfect reminder.

Holly has used the Fit Yummy Mommy  System with over 253 moms to help them change their bodies in her personal training studio in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. It’s the most Mom-friendly, easy to use fat burning system and by committing to just 15-30 minutes per session, you’ll be rewarded with more than three hours of abundant energy in return.

Losing baby fat and regaining a pre-pregnancy body is a daunting thought for most moms, but the author’s personal experience and hands on coaching with over 250 moms is very reassuring. She certainly knows how to break it down for even the most exercise allergic.

And remember, in addition to the main features detailed above, there are plenty of valuable extras included on how to lose that baby fat as easy as possible: checklists, do’s and don’ts, printable workout sheets, even those ready to follow meal plans!

All in all, two thumbs up from me. When the information on hand is as detailed, easy to absorb, and – above all – reliable as Fit Yummy Mummy, you really can’t go wrong. So if you have made the resolution but need a plan that enables you to keep it…
