Me!'s Story
I began 4 weeks before my 36th birthday. I was tired, sleep deprived and still adjusting to life as a mummy as well as moving to Australia. A LOT of life changes had happened in a relatively short space of time. I didn't really feel like me any more and I realised that eating crap and not exercising was only making me feel worse.
I knew my programme worked (after all I designed it!) so I knew exactly what I needed to do to kickstart my health and fitness. Making it public was the best motivation...on the days I couldn't be bothered, I remembered that I would be sharing my results and wanted them to be good. The hardest part was actually making the decision to start. Within a week, I felt so much better that it spurred me on. It is amazing what good food and exercise can do. Powerful stuff. By my birthday I felt like me again. I was beginning to enjoy exercise and eating healthily meant I actually had energy. Never underestimate how good feeling in control can feel.
I wan't perfect and I had numerous slip ups but I kept going. By the end of the 8 weeks I had lost nearly 5kg and lots of cms (especially around my tummy) but the most important change was in how I felt in myself and my mindset. I was so much more positive. Life was exciting again and my motivation for everything was at a high.
Plus, it showed me exactly why my programme works so well (I feel very proud of it!!). Taking it one day at a time meant I didn't feel overwhelmed. My ladies in my Facebook group were a constant source of support and inspiration and as I re-read the articles I had written, I remembered what was really important in life. In short I learnt how to balance being a mummy and still being me. Priceless.

Me!'s Advice for new users
I'm obviously completely biased because it's my programme buuuuuttttt it really works! The hardest part is making the decision to change. Once you've done that, I literally hold your hand through every step of the programme. One day at a time. And if I can do it whilst being a new mummy and having relocated to the other side of the world, then you can too!
