After I gave birth to my beautiful baby girl I knew that I wanted to lose the baby weight that I had gained over the past 9 months. It was easy for the first 2 months – but than it started to get difficult. I began to plateau and didn’t know what to try. I am not someone who like to try the fad diets – but I was desperate.
