In this episode, I talk about whether lingering pregnancy weight is actually a real reason why some women have excess weight and find it difficult to lose it. It is something that I often hear in my practice and I want to shed some light on what mechanisms actually prevent weight loss after a certain time has passed since giving birth (1 year or more).
Some of the studies and articles mentioned in the podcast:
