Hi, thank you for your enquiry.
Fat loss is a gradual process. There is no quick fix approach. Following a healthy diet which has optimal amounts of first class proteins, reduced carbohydrates & healthy fats along with a structured exercise program that is balanced with weight training and cardio will surely help.

Hi, Lifestyle modification like well balanced diet and exercise will help.Here are a few tips that will help you:-
Exercise 40-45 minutes 4-5 times a week like brisk walking
Eat small frequent meals every 2 -3 hours
Eat protein rich diet (especially post workout, it will help in building muscle) and improve
metabolism.
Eat proper breakfast, as 40% of dayâs energy comes from breakfast.
Include healthy fat in your diet like nuts - almonds and walnuts, seeds like pumpkin, watermelon,
sunflower seeds, etc.
Eat fiber rich diet, it will help to gain early satiety and help you feel full - include fruits and
vegetables in your diet
avoid junk food, oily food, processed or canned foods.
Drink a glass of water every hour daily to optimally hydrate the body.
Note: the given prescription can change according to different conditions.

Hi!
Yes, walking does help with post- delivery weight loss, so does breastfeeding. Please continue doing both, and to make this more effective, you need to ensure that your diet is proper.l and supports weight loss.
Stay well hydrated so you get enough breast milk supply, eat fresh fruits and lots of raw vegetables.
Do not start a heavy work out right away, it may affect your lactation level.
Next Steps
Continue breastfeeding and walks. Consult on practo.com for further diet advice (1pm-3pm) for effective weight loss and healthy lactation.
Health Tips
Do not over exert yourself and be in hurry to lose weight, DO NOT follow any crash diets
