HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It can take up to a year or more for some mothers to lose the weight gained during pregnancy.
If you are breast feeding then this would help burn off some calories.
Altering your diet and increasing physical activity is also important. In terms of diet there are different diet modifications available and you can choose which would best suit you.
In terms of the sauna belt, you may want to hold off use. In some persons it can be associated with burns, skin rash and dehydration due to fluid loss.
I hope this helps
