Lauren Lost 48*kgs with the 28 Day Challenges
Lauren says:
“I really wouldn’t be here without the recipes and tips that Lose Baby Weight offer on their website, and without the daily tools I learnt from doing the 28 Day Weihtloss Challenges. Learning the calorie and health benefits of particular foods and being able to incorporate them into everyday living. I strive off of routine, similar meals daily etc. I like variety but I don’t like constant variety, just small changes. I try to keep to fairly similar breakfasts and lunches and alternate snacks and then we always change it up a bit at dinner.”
