Now as I prepare my food my mouth begins to water, I am genuinely hungry and wanting the meal as I prepare it.

I comfortably snacked my way between meals, and even whilst my dinner was in the oven, I often reached for a bag of chips while I waited. I look forward to meal times - I thought I always did this, however since starting the program I now realize that with an abundance of food options, stocked refrigerator and cupboards, I never truly looked forward to a meal because I was never allowing myself the space between eating to do so.I found my plan somewhere in the middle, and away I went.Ī week in, here are some surprising truths that I did not expect to happen: I read my options, toggling between the Nourish meal plan (which included meat options, I stuck to fish), and the Vegan meal plan (which I chose on days I was fished out). As a pescatarian, it's sometimes difficult to find meal options on a regular basis, and now I was cutting out my fallback option - delicious carbs. I felt ready to finally go after my dream body, and my first impression of the FitMum program, was a positive one.Īs I delved into the meal plan (my biggest weight loss issue) I felt comfortable, not turned away. I was surprised the fee was so reasonable ($47 USD) and immediately felt supported with the other moms in the private Facebook group, the app included everything from meal plans, grocery lists, exercise videos and tutorials. One that I could be proud of, and was prepared to work hard to earn.Ī week ago, on a whim, I decided to stop oohing and ahhing over these stranger's testimonials, and to sign up. I longed for a before and after photo testimonial of my own. However, I couldn't help noticing how soft my body looked in my pre-shower mirror glance. I enjoy being active with my kids on bike rides and dancing. I own an Echelon Reflect 50' and participate in the virtual classes several times a week. I walk my dogs on hour-long trails most days of the week. I work out with a personal trainer once a week and have done so for years. Every few days a new testimonial would pop up with a fantastic before and after image and I would swoon for my own story. I began seeing the ads on my social media's newsfeed, almost daily, for months. It's been eight days since I began my journey on the popular weight loss program by Sharny & Julius, called FitMum.
