Stunning mum overcomes severe bullying due to pregnancy weight gain
We often think of bullying as something that happens only on the school playground. But shockingly, it happens to pregnant women too.
During what should have been mum Rochelle’s most enjoyable times in her life, cruel and hurtful comments made about her weight gain during pregnancy led her to great distress over her body image.
With the help of the Healthy Mummy Program, this healthy, fit and gorgeous mum, no longer fears being made fun of.
Read her inspiring story below.
Bullying over weight gain
Starting the Healthy Mummy program
Roadblocks along the way
A shift in focus improved weight loss success
“Then after my sixth pregnancy, my focus shifted from weight loss to my range of movement and what I could physically achieve. My strengths, weaknesses and working out what needed improvement.
While following the Healthy Mummy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenges, I believe it was that shift in focus which enabled me to lose 5.2st in 12 months.
My weight dropped from 13.6st to 8.4st and I went down from size 14-16 down to a size 8 without actually stressing over the weight side of things”.
Along the way Rochelle didn’t have to give up the yummy food that she enjoyed. She just learned to make healthier alternatives of them. And she has gone from gym junkie to enjoying exercise at home with her children.
Reason for continuing the Healthy Mummy 28 Weight Loss Challenges
“I no longer fear being made fun of for my outward appearance”
“It’s because I know my self worth. I value myself, I know my strength and all that really matters is my health”.
