I was so surprised to see just how slim my friend is when I saw her at the supermarket the other day. She has just given birth a couple of months ago which is why seeing her with her new slim figure is quite a shock for me. I know how hard it is to lose all the extra weight one gains from pregnancy. I have experienced it myself and I still remember how I struggled with reaching my ideal weight. I asked her how she managed to lose those extra pounds. She said that aside from monitoring her food intake, she also exercises regularly. After consulting with her doctor, she has also tried some weight loss pills that helped her in losing weight faster. I thank her for her advice and told her I will do them the next time I need to lose weight myself.
