How this mama lost 56kg in under a year!

Before Cicily found The Healthy Mummy, she reveals she had a ‘toxic relationship with food’.

“I’ve always had a lot of trouble losing weight despite going on countless diets and trying my hardest over and over again,” she says.

“I began to have a toxic relationship with food, where I didn’t care if I ate healthy because it didn’t seem to matter. I think that’s where a big part of my health issues started.”

Cicily then found the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge and says she started making more of a conscious effort to check and monitor what she was eating and also finding time to fit exercise into her week – plus started The Healthy Mummy smoothies

Morning tea: Chocolate Zuchinni Cake

Lunch: Cookies and Cream Smoothie with skim milk

Afternoon tea: Choc Cherry Power Bar

Dinner: Out for dinner – rump steak with extra salad.

exercise: Walk

“Really feeling like something hearty for breakfast, so I searched the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge recipe hub with ingredients that I’ve got in my fridge. Mushrooms, baby spinach, tomato. I chose the Frittata as it appealed to me today.

“I made the Chocolate Zucchini Cake for the kids and ate 3 pieces. I’m feeling pretty upset about it and thinking about calling it a day. BUT the Cookies and Cream Smoothie arrived today! I chose to have that with just A2 skim milk, which means Im back on track! I had extra melted chocolate after making the Choc Zucchini cake so searched the recipe hub and found Choc Dipped Fruit Coins, I made those too.

“My Choc Cherry Power Bars arrived too. So I had to have one for afternoon tea – it was soo yum! Come the afternoon I started to go off track. I let my attitude take over and ate out of impulse. I feel pretty upset with myself.

“On Thursday nights we usually go out for dinner, I thought about having a Smoothie and keeping things on track, but today I chose not to. I went out for dinner, I ate the chips. But that’s okay, this is life, and not every day I make the best choices.”

“On Sunday I like to have a yummy family breakfast so I started the day with the Vanilla and Cinnamon Waffles. They are a favourite of mine. I had them with the Coconut and Vanilla Ice Cream and unsweetened warm berries.

“I decided to have a Smoothie for dinner after having such an indulgent breakfast so ended the day with a Banana, Mango & Vanilla.”

You can find all of these recipes on the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge recipe hub.

Monday morning weigh in:

“1.3kg Loss. I’m happy with this weeks efforts. I used to get disheartened by a ‘bad day’. I now know I can move forward and still achieve amazing results, so instead I try to use it as motivation to do better the next day,” says Cicily.

“I’m also really happy I used all of the veggies in my fridge and didn’t have to throw anything out. I didn’t exercise every day, but that is how it goes for me, I don’t always make the time.

“And I did have a bad day and choose an unhealthy option while out for dinner, but that’s also my life. I have bad days.. and then I choose to move on. This was a pretty average week for me. Now I’ll re-assess and try to make the next week better. I re-assess every week.”

Things I could do better next week:

  • Choose savoury snacks. This way I won’t be tempted to eat more serves of cake.
  • Revaluate my weekly goal. I think I put too much pressure on myself to achieve more this week, which lead to my bad choices and impulse eating. This week I’ll tone it back and not put so much stress on myself
  • Drink more water!
  • Go to bed earlier so I’m more rested and can find time to exercise everyday.
