Our Philosophy

RhianAs we all know there are lots and lots of companies out there trying to sell you weight loss programs and it can be confusing.
Some cut out food groups, some advocate very low calorie intake and some are short term fixes or fad diets that see you lose weight in the short term but are just not healthy to do and others just don’t work at all and cost you lots of your money.
And of course, many are not safe or practical to do when breastfeeding. We have also ensured that ours are safe in breastfeeding.
Lose Baby Weight is different as it has been created especially for busy mums who want to lose weight but also with the short term and long term health of the mum being a primary consideration when creating the plans.
The plans are simple and easy to follow and have been created for the time poor and busy mum to be as healthy as possible.
We are absolutely not here to put pressure on mums to lose weight. We instead offer support, advice, plans and products to help mums lose weight when they are 100% physically and emotionally ready to do so – which could be a few months post birth or a few years.
Everyone is an individual and we treat them as such.Our philosophy is that of excellent nutrition and safe weight loss and not trying to lose all of the weight in a really short period of time. If you are breastfeeding still then losing the baby weight needs to be done very slowly and carefully and when you have stopped breastfeeding we believe in continuing to treat your body with respect and not assaulting it with harsh diet, starvation and excessive exercise plans.
We also use our own range of products on the plans called The Healthy Mummy which was created by leading nutritionists to be an excellent source of nutrition for mums and to be safe in breastfeeding. You can read about the range here.
It is also worth noting that toxins are stored in fat so when we lose weight the toxins that were stored in the fat seep out into our blood so if you lose weight very quickly those toxins rush into the body in a concentrated form and can make us sick – this is especially dangerous when still breast feeding as the baby will also ingest this high toxic concentration through the breast milk.
Whereas if weight loss is steady and not dramatic then the toxins are released slower and the body can dispose of them safely.
Every body is different and the way you lose weight will be unique but our programs aim to help you lose approximately 500g – 1 kilo a week – so if you have 12 kilos to lose then we recommend that a safe time to lose this weight will be approximately 12 – 20 weeks.
Some people will do it faster than this and once you start the program you will find your own weight loss pace and what your body responds to best.
Through our site you will have our team of nutritionists and post pregnancy personal trainers giving you advice and showing you exercises – plus you will have the whole Lose Baby Weight team here to support you every step of the way and every day you will see new content and recipes to help you achieve your goals.
We are an email or phone call away and have a large community on Facebook where you can be inspired by other mums too and gain daily support.To learn more about our plans and how they work please click here

rangeQ1.What is The Healthy Mummy Range?

It is a health and weight loss range of products that we had created to help mums get healthy and lose weight. We have a variety of products and plans to use in the range so no matter what your preference or budget you will find a plan to suit you.
We have meal plans, online challenges, exercise DVD’s, recipe books, healthy meal replacement smoothies and lots more. You can see how the plans work here
The Healthy Mummy meal replacement smoothie  in the range was created by leading nutritionists and dieticians to ensure it is a healthy alternative to most shakes commonly found on the market today.
It took over 12 months of research, development and testing to have the smoothie created and we also worked with the Monash University to ensure it was for breastfeeding mums. You can read the nutritionist reviews here and compare it to other brands hereThe smoothie is designed to help mums lose weight, gain energy and feel healthy and because they only take 2 minutes to make they are perfect for the busy, time poor and tired mum. You can read about the smoothie and it’s ingredients here

Q2.How does the Healthy Mummy Smoothie work?

The smoothie has over 24 nutrients in, is high fibre, high protein and low sugar and can be used as your breakfast and/or lunch time smoothie.
We suggest adding in fruit and milk to your smoothie and blending in a blender. As the smoothie is packed full of nutrients and key ingredients it fills you up, nourishes your body, gives you energy and helps you feel satisfied.
Because your body is being nourished with nutrients your whole body will start to function better – and this includes your metabolism which helps weight loss. You will also feel a lot more energetic as your cells in your body are being given everything they need to work better.You will also feel fuller for longer which means less craving junk food and overeating.
Plus they taste delicious and are thick smoothies – so you don’t feel like you are ‘drinking’ a watery shake which is pretty unappetising.

Q3.What is Lose Baby Weight

We are a business and website that has been set up to help mums lose any pregnancy weight in a safe and healthy way (so far mums have lost over 1 Million kgs on the plans and you can see lots of the results here).
We do not tell mums when they should lose weight or put any pressure on mums to do so.Weight loss is a personal subject and for some mums they do not wish to think about losing any weight they gained in pregnancy for over 12-24 months after having their baby whilst others are ready a couple of months after their baby’s birth.
You can read more about the right time for you here and as we always say mums should wait until they are physically and emotionally ready to lose the weight.The Lose Baby Weight plans help mums lose their weight in a healthy and safe way. We have our smoothie plans which help you feel energised, healthy and full and our 28 Day Diet & Exercise Plan that gives you a daily guide on what to do and food/recipes/exercises to follow each day.
The smoothie plans can be incorporated into the 28 Day Plan or done on their own – the choice is up to you but we offer maximum flexibility to help it fit into your life
