“They’re mums like me, not models or actors.” Mum loses 16kg and talks about her biggest supporters
After seeing a friend posting regularly about the success she was having on the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge, this mum looked into what all the fuss was about.
In a negative state of mind, Rachel didn’t stick to her 3 month membership until she saw a photo of herself and decidedย that this was her time and joined again the next day and have not looked back since!
Since September 2017, starting off atย 78kg, Rachel has lost 16kg! Sheย hopes to be at her goal weight of 55kg by June 2018.
Mum of 3 loses 16kg
Asย a working single mum to 3 children, trying to find time to meal prep and exercise was hard for Rachel.
By doing herย grocery shopping online, she could sit and plan out herย entire week of food late at night without the distraction of the children.
When it came to exercise,ย Rachel wouldย focus on increasing herย activities with herย kids, such as playing running games at the oval and jumping on the trampoline orย when she wouldย take them to swimming sheย would do a few laps herself!
“I also made the Healthy Mummy app exercises a fun time for the kids and I would get them to all join in as if it was a game,” says Rachel.
At least 4 nights a week Rachelย freezes at least 2 additional portions of meals she cooks each night.
“This is such a help for me when the kids want to have something that Iย may not want to eat or may not be the healthiest option, Iย know that Iย have a great meal in the freezer,” she said.
Aย favourite recipe in Rachel’s house is the Mexican Lasagne.
“It freezes amazing and you’reย able to put a heap of veggies into it and the kids think they are eating taco meat!” Rachel said.
The impact her journey has had
“My journey on The Healthy Mummy has impacted me as Iย feel so much better in myself, physically and emotionally and as a single mother Iย need all the energy Iย can get to keep up with my children,”ย Rachel adds.
She also says she isย more present for her kids and feels thatย especially for her daughter, she now understands what she’sย doing for herself and for theirย family as far as eating right and keeping healthy.
Rachel’s biggest support and motivation? The Healthy Mummy community!
“They’ve been my biggest inspiration as they are mums like me, not models or actors. They are just mums trying to feel better about themselves. Share your stories, ask for support, provide support and absorb as much of the information that these women are giving out,” Rachel says.
This isย also how Rachelย has kept positive and focused on her weight loss journey as she says,ย “I’d like to show other single mums that are sitting at home that even though we may be on a strict budget and very time poor, that it’s not an excuse. It’s still possible.”
