I'm a mom to a 4-year-old delivered via C-section and struggling with postpartum weight loss. Can you suggest a safe and effective diet plan that works for my situation? I'm also unsure about exercises that won't strain my C-section scar. What would you recommend for gradual and sustainable weight loss?

Focus on a balanced diet rich in protein, fibre, and whole grains, and start gentle exercises. Be patient, as it takes time for your body to heal and your uterus to contract back to its normal size
