Well done and welcome to Week 2 of the Winter Weight Loss Challenge!
Seven days down and we hope you’re already starting to feel fantastic. A week’s worth of healthy eating recipes and exercise has probably increased your energy levels and is getting you closer to your 28 Day Challenge goals.
Doing this challenge together means that there is loads of support to keep you motivated and ensure any questions you have about your journey are answered. We are in this together!
We hope Week 1 has allowed you to start making healthy eating and fitting in exercise part of your daily life and has started to show you that fitting in time for yourself shouldn’t be a chore but something to try and remember to do everyday.
Week 2 Includes:
- A varied, interesting and delicious selection of recipes including soups, slices, pasta and salads.
- Remember that the menus offer you a lot of choice so you can pick and choose what you like and plan your week ahead to make meal prep as easy as possible. So look through the plan for the week and if there are meals you can make ahead of time or double up on, then do that to cut down on time in the kitchen.
- Continued daily exercises that are easy to fit into your busy lives – try to make time each day to fit in 30 minutes for yourself to do something great for your body. It’s amazing how doing a little bit each day really gets the results.
- Shopping lists – many of the ingredients used in the recipes are probably already in your pantry and if you want to change something to suit your preferences, then do so, e.g. if it’s easier to get a firm white fish rather than the specified type on the list, then that’s fine.
- Read our tips to save time and money whilst on the challenge for further information.
- Continued inspiration from other mums on our Challenge within our Private Support Group – if you have a question or want to share your journey – then get chatting!
