Melanie Matthew went from a size 20 down to a size 14, and she credits the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge (specifically the healthy meals found on the Challenge meal plan) and The Healthy Mummy Smoothies for helping her lose 22kg.

She reveals one of the biggest reasons for this is because she has started meal prepping her recipes from the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge recipe hub. The gorgeous mum has recently made 64 HEALTHY meals and snacks for just $70.41!

“The Healthy Mummy has taught me to meal prep to save time and it means I make better choices with food and snacks and I can freeze the leftovers for nights I’m too busy to cook,” she says.
