Mum set herself a 50th birthday weight loss goal and she smashed it โ a week early!
After years of yo-yoย dieting, mum Bec Msosi found a family friendly healthy eating plan that helped her to achieve her 50th birthday weight loss goal. A whole week early!
This HOT MAMA credits the nutritious recipesย available on The Healthy Mummyย 28 Day Weight Loss Challengeย meal plan and the deliciousย Healthy Mummy Smoothiesย to her weight loss success.
She shares her weight lossย journey below and tips to help you with your weight loss journey.
Becโs weight loss journey
Single mum Bec has a (nearly) 30-year-old and a 6-year-old and hasย spent years trying different diets, losing weight and then putting it all back on again.
She says,ย โI was totally unhappy with myself, my eating habits and my body.โ
Exercise hasย never been an issue for Bec, she happilyย exercises each morning at homeย but she found it was her eating that wasย letting her down.
Bec said,ย โHealthy eating was something I could do, but the cakes, ice cream, takeaway and chocolate kept slipping in and jeopardising my efforts.โ
In a desperate attempt to get on track, she purchased some diet shakes from the supermarket as another quick fix attempt to lose weight.
She saidย โI was using them for around six weeks and nothing was happening except I was starting to feel gross, bloated, lethargic and down! It wasnโt working!
I needed something but what?โ
Discovering The Healthy Mummyย Smoothies
After seeing aย Facebook ad aboutย Theย Healthy Mummy Smoothies, Bec decided to give them a go.
Her reaction was โWow, I loved them right away. The taste and the way I felt, so full of energy!”
Around a month after starting the smoothies Bec joinedย The Healthy Mummy Facebook support groupย as she says,ย โI needed to find strength and motivation and I needed to hold myself accountable.
The support I found was enormous, such a beautiful group of wonderful ladies!โ
Joining the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge
A couple of months later after watchingย โall these brave, amazing ladies post stories on their journeysโย Bec was inspired toย try theย 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge.
She says,ย โSo I signed up and duringย my first 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge I lost 4 pounds!! I loved it and after it ended I signed up for two years and I havenโt looked back.โ
When Bec tried the Healthy Mexican Lasagne she says,ย โOmg words cannot express how yummy my dinner was.โ
Getting the hang of meal prepping
Bec struggled at first with meal prepping. She says she hated the idea of being in the kitchen cooking on the weekend and this led to her slipping up a lot in the early days.
She saysย โWeekends I struggled to stay on track. Iโd end up eating ice cream, pizza, Subway or any other type of takeaway due to my lack of motivation to cook.โ
โSo I started gradually, cooking extra servings while cooking our nightly dinner and slowly I started having a freezer stash and it made life so much easier.
I loved having those meals and so now I spend one Sunday every three weeks of cooking meals and snacks to keep that freezer full of yummy healthy mealsโ.
Weight loss results
Bec has lost 1.3st with The Healthy Mummy.
It was her goal to lose the weight before her 50th birthday. By working hard, sticking to herย 28 Day Challengeย meal plan and exercising five days a week she reached her goal one week before her birthday!
Reflecting on her journey Bec saysย โThe Healthy Mummy has been my saving grace. Without it, I wouldnโt be where I am now.
I donโt have to think about what I am eating, the challenges provide me with meal plans that I follow. If thereโs a meal I donโt like, the hub provides so many other options.
Iโm a single mum of a wonderful six-year-old and she also loves the delicious meals that are in the hub so itโs a lifestyle that is very family friendlyโ.
โIt doesnโt matter what your ageโ
โIt doesnโt matter what your age, as part of The Healthy Mummy you can achieve great things. You will never go hungry because the food is amazing, the support is second to none. The Healthy Mummy app keeps me on track withย water, exercise and the calories Iโve eaten!
Thanksย Healthy Mummy, you have given me an amazing healthy lifestyle and a body I can be proud of at 50!โ
Becโsย tips toย help with your weight loss journey:
- โExercise first thingย in the morning.ย That way itโs done. I love to get up early before my little one wakes, but even if she is awake, she knows that I exercise and her seeing me is ensuring I am setting a good example to her.
- Meal prep.ย But if you canโt, try to cook extra serves daily so that you can slowly build up your freezer stash.
- Believe in yourself. No one else can do that as well as you.
- Bite the bullet, join theย 28 Day Weight Loss Challengeย and see how you go.ย I promise you wonโt regret itโ.
The Healthy Mummy team would like to congratulate Bec on reaching her weight loss goal before her 50th birthday. We canโt believe she is 50! Must be her healthy lifestyle that is keeping her so young.
