The Facebook advert that changed the way this mum viewed herself (and her eating habits)
Three months ago, Natalie Cowie’s view of herself completely changed. As did her thoughts around fitness, food and health.
“Little did I know when I saw an advert for the Healthy Mummy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge back in April, that it would totally change the way I thought about myself, and change mine and my family’s eating habits for the better,” Natalie reveals.
In April 2018, Natalie was encouraged to join the Healthy Mummy’s 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge – a program designed for mums by mums to help them lose weight, tackle their fitness and create healthy, family-friendly meals.

Natalie, whose littlest one is just 2 months old, says during her pregnancy she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. As a result, she didn’t gain much weight during her pregnancy.
However, Natalie says after her pregnancy she ate to ‘make up’ for all the things she missed out on eating during her pregnancy.
“I was piling on the lbs and my confidence was plummeting. I’ve never really been overly confident, so it really was rock bottom,” she reveals.
“Then I joined the Healthy Mummy. I’ve totally changed the way I see food.”
A healthy balance
Natalie says the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge has helped her make her favourite foods…in their healthiest possible forms.
“Now if I want something nice, I have something. I don’t feel the need to eat the unhealthy stuff I was before though, I choose something from the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge App“.
Natalie says that she now always cooks family-friendly, healthy meals. Not to mention, her kiddies are eating a wider range of food than ever before! #AMAZING
“I see myself differently. I am more confident, I don’t feel as awkward going to new places and meeting new people.
“I’m not quite where I want to be yet. But I am definitely getting there, and loving the journey,” Natalie shares.
