Zoe Terry

Zoe shares,  ‘41.1kgs gone and definitely not missed!

I never thought I could do it. I never thought I would enjoy it. But Healthy Mummy has made it easy and fun!

I have found that 2 smoothies, 3 snacks and a healthy main meal paired with daily exercise is what’s worked for me!”

Zoe shares, “I’ve lost 35kgs and gained a love for healthy food and exercise! The Healthy Mummy has also helped me manage my postnatal without medication!

“I joined the Healthy Mummy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge because I was looking for a lifestyle change that I could continue for the rest of life. I was tired of being exhausted and not setting a good example for my son. In 2020 I want to reach and maintain a healthy weight and feel strong!”

Zoe shares, “My father has health issues and I worry about him. I realised if I didn’t make changes my son would have to worry about me too when he grows up.

“I no longer wanted my husband to look at me and I didn’t want to look at me either. I dreaded having to find something to wear and I was always tired. I needed to change and stop living half a life. I wanted to live the life that I deserve!”

Simone Amiet

Simone is a 28-year-old mum to four girls aged 8, 5 and 18-month twins from Gunnedah, NSW.

Just under a year ago, Simone admits to not being in a great place mentally or physically. Her anxiety and depression were not helping with weight gain if anything they were making it worse.

Simone shares, “I was so lazy,  loved junk food and made excuses not to do anything. I started diets and would always give up after a week or two.”

I joined the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge to lose weight, but most of all to be healthy, I was sick of being sick and unfit.”

I have lost of total of 36 kilos. I’m now weighing 60 kilos. It has taken me the last 10 months to lose 30 kilos.”

The Healthy Mummy didn’t just change my life, but it changed my children’s lives too’.

“As I always tell my daughters I’m not on a diet I have a healthier lifestyle now,  for them and most definitely me.”

Get Tips for Losing Weight in a week from a Mum who’s done it!

Kaitie Purcell has been a member of the Healthy Mummy since 2015 and has lost a whopping 21 kilos.

She admits that sometimes the weight loss would stall, or even she’d put on a bit of weight after Christmas or Easter holiday. But, Kaitie says by following the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge and by using these tips, she was able to get back on track and lose weight within a week.

Kaitie’s Top Tips for Losing Weight in a week

1. BMR

Calculate your BMR. KNOW how many calories you are aiming for (don’t guess based on someone else’s needs), for your personal goals and requirements.

2. Plan

Make a plan and set yourself up for the week. Create a shopping list with everything you need and set aside a small amount of time to prepare some meals and snacks for the week ahead.

3. Water

kaitie-purssell-drink-more-water-weight-loss-tip

Drink plenty of water throughout the day to ensure you are hydrated. Often thirst can be confused for hunger pangs.

5. Check your labels!

Don’t be fooled by clever packaging, often pre-packaged ‘high protein’ foods contain extra calories, sugars and sweeteners.

6.Exercise

Schedule in time to exercise. Make an appointment with yourself. This will help you be committed to a specific time. This high protein meal plan will assist in muscle recovery, 3 days per week is great when starting out. Don’t have time to exercise?

Move when you can. Do some squats at the kitchen sink, do extra laps of the hallway, park further away from your work or the shopping and walk further, take the steps instead of the elevator. Simply more more whenever you can.

7. Eat regularly

Your meal plan is filled with amazing food including breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. If you eat scheduled meals you are less likely to get hungry and binge eat later in the day.

8. High Protein

Eating high protein meals and snacks will help you feel fuller for longer.

9. Pack a lunch box

If you have a busy day ahead or know you will be out for a lengthy amount of time, pack a lunch box. Take your prepared meals and snacks. If you get caught try avoid takeaway and processed “healthy foods”. If possible opt for salads with dressing on the side or try to purchase some fresh fruit or natural nuts.

10. Lastly, be kind to yourself

If you slip and over eat, if you have caved and eaten takeaway or that tempting chocolate bar don’t be too hard on yourself. Accept it and move on. Have a glass of water and start fresh right away. Don’t wait for tomorrow or Monday. You can do this now!
