And as they are soooo delicious I thought I would share with you what a day of food looks like on the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge and the great news is that the food is family friendly and things are easily changed if you have a fussy eater.

PLUS if you don’t like any of the meals you can use the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge meal planner customiser to swap to a different meal (and we have over 4,000 to choose from!)
