Kerrie reflecting on her day

This amazing mum shares her reflections of her day with you.

“I had a busy day in and out the house. Food all on track just under my calories a bit.

Water – hit my target.

Exercise – was a rest night for me but I cleaned the house for three hours so still burnt around the same calories.

The hardest thing about my day was trying to eat all my calories today.

The best thing about my day was still reaching my water target despite being out and about.

It’s Friday tomorrow.. yay! The lead up to the weekend. BUT we aren’t done yet… another three days to make this were amazing. Keep pushing on ladies! Keep kicking those goals! And if you haven’t had the best week there’s still time to turn it around. Don’t give up.”

Thank you, Kerrie for sharing your food diary with us. Such an amazing effort!
