My postpartum weight loss journey - I was 48 kgs before pregnancy.
During pregnancy, I gained almost 20 kgs → went up to 68 kgs

After delivery, I dropped to 61 kgs (which is completely normal postpartum),
but then… breastfeeding hunger hit hard.

I was constantly hungry, eating more,
and on top of that, I had a C-section, so working out wasn’t even an option. ( as it got infected so recovery got delayed )

And then reality hit —
when my baby was just 2.5 months old, all the help left.
No mom, no mother-in-law… I was managing everything on my own.

At that point?
Weight loss was the last thing on my mind.
I was just trying to survive, adjust, and be there for my baby.

But somewhere around when my baby turned 5 months,
I slowly started focusing on myself again.
No crash diets, no extreme routines… just small, consistent changes.

And by the time my baby was 10–11 months old,
I had lost all the pregnancy weight and healed my diastesis recti
This wasn’t a “perfect transformation.”
This was messy, slow, emotional, and very real.

If you’re in that phase where you feel stuck, tired, or like you’ve lost yourself…
just know — it takes time, but you will find your way back 🤍

Follow along for my real postpartum weight loss journey.—

I am a bad mom for saying - I lost myself after becoming a mom.”

But before anyone misunderstands this —
no, I don’t mean I regret motherhood.
I don’t mean I don’t love my baby.
I don’t mean I’m unhappy.

I mean… I stopped choosing myself.

Somewhere between routines, responsibility, mental load, and constant thinking —
I stopped doing things just because I felt like it.

Everything became planned. Calculated.
Even stepping out alone started feeling like a luxury.

And that’s what I mean by “losing myself.”

Not losing love.
Not losing happiness.
Just… losing that carefree version of me who didn’t have to think twice.

The other day, I stepped out — nothing fancy.
Just a walk, a coffee, a little shopping.
And it felt like so much.

Also, reality check?
Came back with bags… all for my baby 🤍

Because motherhood never leaves you.
But that doesn’t mean you should disappear.

A small reminder —
taking time for yourself doesn’t make you a bad mom.
It actually makes you a better one.

You can’t pour from an empty cup.
So love yourself. Live a little for yourself too.

If you’re feeling this — you’re not alone 🤍

Real and unaesthetic Motherhood - it’s looks calm, soft, aesthetic…on Instagram
but real life? it’s loud, messy, overwhelming and so so real.

The no-sleep nights.
The constant mental load.
The guilt — no matter what you choose.
The “I don’t even know what I need right now” moments.
The crying… sometimes baby, sometimes you.

And somehow still showing up, every single day.

This is the part no one really posts.
Because it’s not pretty.
But it’s honest.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, touched out, confused, exhausted…
you’re not alone. And you’re definitely not doing it wrong.

You’re just living the version of motherhood that doesn’t get filtered.
