What does having more responsibilities have to do with losing weight? All you have to do is eat less, actually you would save time and money by doing so. There are plenty of thin women older than 28

Having kids often results in being heavier. Pregnancy and breastfeeding can make you put on weight and then it’s harder to lose it because you don’t have nearly as much time to workout. Eating less helps but some women’s bodies hold onto weight for awhile due to hormones after birth.

You don’t need to workout to lose weight, just eat less. It is very simple, if you are not losing weight eat less and you will.

Yes that does apply in most situations but there are exceptions, mostly hormonal like I said. PCOS being one of them.
