Alexandra has lost 5 Stone in under 2 years!

Alexandra Forrest from Wakefield in West Yorkshire has been following The Healthy Mummy for almost 2 years and has lost a whopping 5 stone!

“I started the Healthy Mummy in just under 2 years ago, which was 6 months after giving birth to my second baby. It gave me all the tools I needed to make the lifestyle changes I needed to make.”

“Now here I am 5 st lighter absolutely addicted to exercise and healthy eating”

Alexandra had already made significant changes to her lifestyle with plenty of weight loss success, but then with Covid came a lot of other challenges that could have disrupted her goals.

She says, “I’m not active during the day now like before as I’m working from home.”

“However I have been going to the gym every day sometimes twice or I do a workout at home. I’m feeling much better physically and mentally when I exercise and eat right, I plan my meals most of the time because if I don’t I end up eating the same all the time and I get bored.”

Alexandra’s Healthy Lifestyle

“I eat porridge for my breakfast every morning but I do mix it up. I eat two snacks and I’m making a lot of high protein recipes from the recipe hub as I’m weight training in the gym.

And I also love the workouts with the weights in the app.”

“I am very happy with my results and I wouldn’t have been able to achieve this without the Healthy Mummy for sure. The amazing recipes, the workout videos and the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge app (and the awesome Healthy Mummy community group of course ) gave me everything I needed!

Alexandra’s Tips and Advice

“My tips are consistency- the little things add up to be big things, be patient with yourself and trust the process.”

“We all fall off the wagon from time to time just give yourself some slack then get back on when ready. One “bad” day doesn’t mean you’ll have to have a bad week.”

“Keep going ladies you’re doing amazing”
