Hi Mums,
I am Shona and I have lost 14kgs* with Lose Baby Weight and I am one of your motivating mums for December.
At my fittest and healthiest I was 62kg but we struggled to get pregnant and needed IVF assistance. Through this process my exercise levels dramatically decreased, my emotional eating increased and my weight increased.

When I got pregnant I was 78kg. Endless surgeries and hospitalisations later, we had two successful pregnancies and two beautiful girls (one preemie 7.5 weeks early).
I was not one of the lucky ladies who lost weight during breast feeding, in fact I had the opposite, and by the time I finished feeding I was 97kg.
Sooooooo….. This is when the weight loss journey began.
I purchased the Lose Baby Weight book and smoothies and decided to try some recipes.
They were all great, but I was still eating way too much and not in the right frame of mind.
Then in July 2014, I signed up for the first 28 day challenge. I figured I could do anything for four weeks.
The exercise plans and the variety of food made it really simple to follow and meant I didn’t get bored. I would go to the park and as the baby slept and older child played, I would do the exercises.
I was working really hard but the results just didn’t happen. Often I wondered what the point of the hard work was.

I decide to join the gym and ramped my exercise up even more, but still no real results. Then I got really sick and some days I couldn’t exercise at all and could barely get out of bed.
The short story is I have female issues and will probably end up with a hysterectomy.
As I am often in pain, my cortisol levels are very high and weightloss is tough.
Someone posted the following quote on the healthy mummy page: ‘progress might be slow but quitting won’t speed it up’
This really resonated with me, yes results are excruciatingly slow, but what’s the alternative?
At least I will be fit and healthy. I have lost 14kg in 16 months and am beginning to feel better about myself and finally feel like the old, pre IVF person I was.
The support and inspiration I get from the Healthy Mummy group makes me laugh and cry and I feel like I have 25000 new friends.
Shona xx
