“I’ll be kissing the baby bulge goodbye”

Vicki New, 26 is an Army officer and lives in Bicester with her husband Richard and their baby daughter.

I had my first child in March last year and put on a lot of weight during my pregnancy. I’m in the Army, so I’ve always been pretty fit but I didn’t exercise at all for the whole nine months. A couple of months after Isabella was born I thought ‘Right, enough is enough’, and I knew I had to seriously tackle my weight problem…

By combining Weight Watchers with Buggyfit classes, I managed to get down to 14st 2lb. I’m much fitter now thanks to Buggyfit and I have started running again too – I’ve also made some great new friends…

Beat your post-baby body blues

Buggyfit Blitz

What is it: Buggyfit involves pushing your little’un around under the eye of a trainer. Session run on a drop-in basis, but ‘blitz’ events involve 4-5 sessions a week. “Buggyfit is suitable after the six-week postnatal check-up, but Buggyfit Blitz is recommended 16 weeks post-birth,” says Sally Owen, who runs blitzes in Richmond, Surrey.

Our new mama says: “With 10lb to shift but no willpower, Buggyfit Blitz was the kick I needed. My group had a fantastic camaraderie, and it was incredible to see my fitness improving. My baby seemed to enjoy it too. I came away from the week 3lb lighter and motivated.”

Best Thing: It’s affordable, sociable and fits in with your new life

See www.buggyfit.co.uk for trainers nationwide, sessions from £5. Sally Owen’s one-week blitz costs £25.
