How to get the most out of the 12 Week Challenge
If you are using the Healthy Mummy App you may have heard about the awesome 12 Week Challenge and want to know what it’s all about.
We offer three 12-week challenges a year, one each in the summer, winter, and spring. This way, our members can focus on their fitness and health goals during key seasons, when they’re most motivated.
The challenges are designed to be challenging but achievable, and we provide our members with all the tools and support they need to succeed. We also schedule a 28-day break between each challenge to allow our members to rest and recharge, and to prepare for the next challenge.
This is especially important during holiday seasons like Easter and Christmas, when it can be more difficult to stick to a fitness routine.
So if you’re looking for a challenge to help you reach your fitness and health goals, we encourage you to join one of our 12-week challenges! We know you’ll love it.
What is the 12 Week Challenge?
Put simply, the 12 week challenge consists of following three conventional 28 Day Weight Loss Challenges in the Healthy Mummy App.
For those taking part, they will pledge their 12 week goal, and along with receiving a free 12 Week Challenge Tool kit ebook, plus the chance to win a prize pack valued at $600!
They’ll also have access to a 12 Week Challenge Private Support Group on Facebook, where there will be weekly prizes drawn and where they can chat with other mums taking part in the 12 Week Challenge and get regular support emails.

Cassandra Perrin lost 30 kilos and 80cm in 12 weeks!
Cassandra is 41 from NSW and is mum to six beautiful children aged 19 to 6 years old. She admits that pouring her heart and soul into her amazing family for the last 22 years meant that she lost herself a bit along the way.
In fact, Cassandra says that following a couple of stressful pregnancies, special needs children and dealing with the challenges of them as teenagers, led to her weight gain.
“I got depressed and it was a vicious cycle. I was stoked when the 12 challenge was announced as this was what I needed,” she says.
“I had 12 weeks of support and accountability with a group of women who were all there doing the same thing, I could do it in the safety of my home and still be connected to a support system of an amazing community and be held accountable each week with my weigh-in, measurements and progress photos.
“I didn’t have to go to a gym. As a morbidly obese lady with social anxiety and depression, this was amazing. I was excited to be a part of a community and still be hidden.”
