Melissa shares her story and her tips for toning that booty!
But first we speak to Melissa about how she started her weight lossย journey.
Melissaโs weight loss transformation
โAfter my son I gained 3.2st and went on a stupid diet and lost it all, but only to gain 6.4st back 2 years later!ย ย
After my daughter I was officially at my heaviest (16.11st), while scrolling through healthy ways to lose weight while breastfeeding I found The Healthy Mummy.
I ordered my first tub of theย Healthy Mummy Smoothies and started exercises and a few months later I joined the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge.
I was loving the recipes and experimented with all these new things I was learning. ย I learned that I could still enjoy life and eat yummy foods that were made with ingredients I didnโt even know existed.
I had no idea that you could make certain recipes that I loved eating but in a healthier version, for example choc chip muffins.
Iย managed to lose 5.9st and I have maintained it for over 1 year now, the scales have started going down even more now. Iโm almost at my new goal weight as my original goal weight was 11.4st and Iโve gone past that.”ย
How Melissaโs life has changed
“Never in my life did I think I would be confident enough to wear swimmers.
This is the best I have felt ever, and for everyone that said after kids it wouldnโt be possible, what a load of rubbish, anything is possible if you set your mind to it!โ Melissa said.
