Product Description

Product Description

This upbeat, achievable plan helps you get back into shape after pregnancy, by combining super nutrition (including meal suggestions and dietary advice) and effective short exercise routines you can do anywhere. It's the easy way for mums to become yummy mummies -- reclaiming their bodies and losing their baby-weight safely and successfully. A mother herself, Kate Cook understands the frustrations, self-doubts and lack of control felt by many mums, so the focus is on straightforward solutions for real lifestyles. The plan is wrapped around a humorous 'chic-lit' style narrative for an immediate connection with the reader, but is easy to dip into, with clever tips, meal plans and easy exercises. Kate offers sound advice not only on nutrition and exercise, but on how to find the time, energy and motivation to get going and keep going. There are quotes from real mums throughout, to reinforce the life-coaching elements, helping you to save time and stay sane and focused.

1.0 out of 5 stars Irritating and unrealistic!, 27 Dec 2008
This book came recommended by a pregnancy magazine which is what made me chose it over several others and I found it to be a total waste of money. The tone was patronising and irritating throughout, and I didn't find that the diet and lifestyle tips fit in with the experience of most young mums. I agree that after giving birth we all need pampering and me time, but most of us are on a budget and statutory maternity pay so can't afford to treat ourselves to a whole load of new makeup or new exercise clothes, even if it would be nice! I found the same goes for the diet plan - especially in these credit crunching times most of us are trying to cut down on our shopping bills, not buy a long list of items from health food shops. The exercise tips were ok, but most of them (ie the pram walks) are common sense anyway and nothing you couldn't pick up at your local aerobics class!
