Amanda Purchase Roberts' Success Story

Hi Michelle,

Here are my before and after pictures.

My name is Amanda Purchase Roberts and I was very worried about gaining too much weight when I found out I was pregnant. I was even more worried about not getting back in to my pre-pregnancy jeans, so I started taking your advice every time you sent me an email. I exercised regularly up until I was placed on bed rest and made sure to drink 64 fl oz of water everyday and watched what I ate. I gained 24 pounds during my pregnancy. When I was placed on bed rest I made sure to avoid eating junk food since I couldn't exercise. My bed rest was not a result of exercising or anything like that. I had a medical condition that was inherited.

This is me 9 days after giving birth. Kendall weighed 6lbs 6oz and was 19 inches long. I started walking around the neighborhood when Kendall was 2 weeks old and I was able to fit into my pre-pregnancy jeans a little less than a month after giving birth. I didn't have a nanny, personal trainer, or personal chef as we see many celebrities do in the media. I just stayed focused and knew I wanted to be healthy to enjoy playing with my new baby. Walking is such a great exercise shortly after giving birth because you can do it with your new baby. My pediatrician said that walking outside was great for the baby because the baby would get fresh air and not be enclosed with so many germs.

Thank you so much for your advice and support! It is possible to lose the weight if you don't allow yourself to eat whatever you want while you are pregnant and make sure to exercise. It was so much easier for me to get back in to a routine once I delivered and was given the okay to exercise again. I have to say that I was never much of a water drinker until I got pregnant. It was easier for me to swallow when I knew it was for me and my baby.

Thank you so much,
Amanda Purchase Roberts
