Eager to lose those extra pounds that haven't budged since your little bundle arrived? These tips will help

We live in a society where new moms are pressured to lose their baby weight before checking out of the hospital and where supermodels chastise us for turning ourselves "into garbage disposals" when we eat for two. (Thanks, Gisele.)

And it sucks.

So, we're not about to bully you into slimming down by your bambino's six-week checkup. But once the post-partum dust has settled and you're ready to start working out again, there are some relatively simple secrets to help pave the way.

Remember, your target doesn't have to be as punishing as "fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans." In fact, it can be as simple as "get moving three times a week for 30 minutes" or "eat less sugar." Let these mommy-tested tips help you.
