• Schedule in exercise like you would an appointment, no cancelling, value your commitment.
• Meal plan and only shop for what’s on your 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge Meal Plan.
• Make sure you have healthy treats on hand and ready to go.

This month Brittany says she is on a mission to, “Love myself more and really reflect on the journey I’ve had so far with Healthy Mummy. I think we focus so much on the end outcome we can lose track of how far we’ve really come.”

She plans to attack the following (and encourages other mums to do the same):

• Keep my water intake at at least 2L daily.
• Tone my belly and butt – think Booty Busting Workouts and Tabata on the Challenge App.
• Get a friend! Whether it be in person walking together or FitBit challenges have someone along side you who wants to keep you focused.
• Make a goal chart with a picture of why you started this journey so you can always remember that and reflect!
• Utilise the Facebook Support Group, the Challenge App, and Challenge workout routines! Theres soo many different support avenues so just find what suits YOU! And do ask questions if you feel overwhelmed!

This incredible mum has lost over 17kgs* and 110+ cms using 28 Day Weight Loss Challenges and  Smoothies.

This inspiring mum of twins is on a mission this month to “take advantage of the amazing Challenge exercises, Tabata and DanceFit on offer on the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge App!”

Her tips for staying on track include:

• Take photos and cm measurements. Don’t be defined by a number. The scales might not move but you will see and feel a difference.
• Use the Facebook Support Groups for support – share your highs and lows, they’ll pick you back up and get you on track again.
• Don’t compare yourself to others. We are all on the same path but will get there at different times. Direction is so much more important than speed. Many are going nowhere fast!

Sam’s since managed to lose an amazing 16kg following the birth of her fourth child, and then 7kg after the birth of her fifth child following the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenges.

Sam has two major goals for September. They are:

• Keep up with my consistent exercising and start toning.
• Continue with not mindless eating at night time.

Here are her top three TIPS for achieving these goals (and helping other mums do the same):

• Know your food triggers and be prepared with healthier Healthy Mummy recipes and snack alternatives.
• Don’t let other people’s successes mess with your head and hinder you from reaching your goals. Small steps and realistic goals are far more achievable.
• Make time for exercise. Your mind and body will thank you for it.

Healthy mummy Rebecca has changed not just hers but also her family’s lives AND she’s lost 17kgs by following the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge.

Rebecca says, “The variations of meals [on the Challenge] have completely changed the way we eat. We love trying new things. Since starting The Healthy Mummy we have cut out soft drink and for us this is so important for our two daughters.”

Rebecca says, “My September goal is to hit goal weight. Only 1.5kgs to go!

“I would also love to get some shape back into my flat cardio bum so integrating more squats into my routine is a great start. Also my water intake has suffered a little since returning to work full time from maternity leave so a focus on this is very important for me for my over all health.”

Here are her 3 tip tips for staying on track:

• Plan your day, write it down and have it in front of you. That way you can tick off your meals and exercise as you go.
• Don’t let one miss step set you up for a day or week of failures. Just except the cheat meal or day off exercise and choose to make better choices at the next chance.
• Remember this is a lifestyle change not a diet. Everything you do has to be sustainable and apart of your routine and then it’s easy!

Despite suffering from PCOS most of her life, Libby credits the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenges for helping her lose 14 + kilograms and improving her overall sense of well being.

“Nothing I had tried previously worked for me. Being able to customise the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge Meal Plan has meant that I can change the program to suit me, my family, our preferences, our budget and my health needs.”

For September, Libby is on a mission to accomplish the following goals:

• To tone my booty so it looks fabulous in my goal shorts this Summer
• To tone my body by upping my strength training
• To continue losing those last few kilos
• To tackle mindless snacking and not make poor food choices in the evening.

Her top tips for staying on track are:

• Break goals down into smaller manageable pieces, and reward yourself along the way.
• Find exercise that you ENJOY doing – you are going to feel more motivated if you know you’ll be having fun too. DanceFit is a great addition to the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge App, the exercise plans and Tabata are also pretty short and sweet, so are easy to fit into a busy day.
• Don’t be so hard on yourself – if something doesn’t go to plan, don’t throw the towel in! Evaluate the situation, workout where you went wrong, decide how you will achieve a different outcome next time, pick yourself up and move on! We all have bad days…plan as much as you can for them, so you have something to fall back on and know you’ll be able to get back on track.
