An eight-week weight-loss program designed around early parenthood

Mark MacDonald frames early parenthood as a period when disrupted routines and changing demands can make weight management difficult. Drawing on his own experience of gaining weight after becoming a father, he and his wife, Abbi, present an eight-week plan built specifically for parents. The program centers on weight loss, increased energy, and the development of sustainable habits intended to support longer-term maintenance. Positioned within diet and nutrition, the book addresses the practical challenge of rebuilding personal health routines while raising children.

Book overview

It's no secret that most of us get flabbier the older we get, and it's no surprise that the biggest spike in weight happens in the early stages of parenthood. Mark Macdonald knows the struggle himself, having gained thirty-five pounds after the birth of his son. It happened to him even as a nutritionist and former fitness model, so he knew he wasn't alone in the struggle. Along with his wife, Abbi, Mark has created this proven eight-week program specifically geared toward parents to help them shed the weight, discover new amounts of energy, and most importantly, create new sustainable habits to keep it from coming back.
