Mum is down 7 dress sizes after MASSIVE weight loss. Her shorts prove it!
49 year old mum Kerrie O’Brien has gone down an ASTOUNDING 7 dress sizes in just 2 years by following The Healthy Mummy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenges and Healthy Mummy Smoothies.ย And the proof is in her denim shorts – all 8 pairs of them.
She reminds mums that while scales are important, they don’t tell the whole story when it comes to weight loss.
It’s important to celebrate the non-scale victories (NSV’s). In Kerrie’s case, going from a size 16 to a size 6 denim short. Wow!
If you are trying to lose weight the thrill of going down one dress size is beyond exciting.
So imagine you have gone down 7 dress sizes.
This truly remarkable achievement has been made by Healthy Mummy mum Kerrie O’Brien.
Kerrie’s weight loss journey
Kerrie’s acknowledges that her body has been through a lot the past 13 years.
She says “I had a fibroid tumour removed through my stomach at age 36.
Then I carried two large 9 pound babies at age 37 & 39 ย and put on an extra 4 stones 7 pounds during pregnancy.
I carried an extra 4 stone around for years with health problems and strain on my body.
I lost a small amount on my own but I was still searching for something that would work for me, and found The Healthy Mummy at age 47″.
How Kerrie achieved weight loss success
There has been nothing quick-fix about Kerrie’s weight loss. Instead she has been doing all the right things.
Making healthy food from the Healthy Mummy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge meals plans, averaging 1 Healthy Mummy Smoothie a day and doing regular exercises from the Healthy Mummy App.
She says “My progress has been slow and at times seemed at a standstill, but when I compare my photos Iโm so proud.
My body is still a work in progress, and it still shows the evidence of what it went through but Iโm a heck of a long way from where I was just 2 years ago.
Thanks to Healthy Mummy I am where I never ever thought I could even be at age 49. ย
You donโt have to go fast…. you just have to make a start, keep going, donโt stop and donโt ever give up!”.
Weight Loss Results
Although the numbers are important Kerrie says the change in her body is just as important.
She is down 7 dress sizes! (from 16 to a 6).ย From Size 16 to 14, 13, 12, 11 , 10, and then size 8 to now size 6.
Non-scale victory
“After years of hiding my stomach to being able to now wear tight high waisted shorts with a t-shirt tucked in is a definite non-scale victory. ย
In fact, many of these shorts purchases were NSVโs because a lot of the time when I went down a size in these shorts I was also in a plateau where the scales werenโt moving, but my body still was changing shape.
Even now with these newest shorts the scales havenโt moved more than 2 pounds in the past 3 months but Iโm buying smaller sizes at the same time”.
Kerrie’s advice to mums
- “Donโt rely on the scales to tell you the whole story because they wonโt.
- Donโt let the scales make you feel youโre not making progress because you still are.
- Donโt wait for the scales to move to a certain number to celebrate your progress.
Celebrate of all those NSVโs … whether they are related to clothes, fitness, a change in your mindset, whatever they are be proud of yourself every step of the way ladies!”.
Congratulations Kerrie. The Healthy Mummy team would like to thank you for sharing your non-scale victory with us.
