Laura's Post Pregnancy Success Story - Laura reveals her tips on how she did it!

"I absolutely love the In Shape Mummy Health Shake. After having my first son, I found it too hard to make my own food all the time, on top of everything else - newborn life is chaos! And the shakes are delicious.
I was stuck with an extra 10 kg and have managed drop that in a healthy way - all while breastfeeding - which has been amazing! Couldn't recommend this shake more!
I have attached my photos: 9 months in, 10 weeks out and 9 months out. The guides have all been excellent and I'm so glad I've been able shed my baby weight relatively easily without affecting my milk supply - in fact boosting it!!!
I have tried all flavours of the In Shape Mummy Health Shake, but my favourites are the caramel fudge and chocolate brownie.
I was diagnised with RPOC about 12 weeks post-birth and I lost my milk after surgery to remove it. I am convinced that these shakes helped bring my milk supply back.
Second time around after having by second baby, I was prepared. I had the In Shape Mummy Health Shakes packed and ready and started using them in the hospital! Starting from day 1 made such a big difference this time. With my first, I hestitated because I was busy researching everything.. But I'm so glad that I didn't wait second time around! " - Laura

Here's what Laura Did to Get In Shape...
Breakfast
In Shape Mummy Health Shake - the chocolate brownie and caramel fudge flavours are my favourites. I make my smoothie with 2 tbsp of the shake mix, one frozen banana, handful of spinach, tbsp of chia seeds and one cup coconut water (topped up with water or almond milk). I have been doing this every day to keep consistent
Lunch
- Normally a small serve of steamed or sir fried salmon or chicken with salad
Dinner
- My regular dinners look like:
- Steak and salad
- Lasagna packed with veggies
- Chicken and steamed veggies
- Salad or salmon and sweet potato with brocollini
- Roast pork and roast veggies
- Butter chicken with potato and dahl (which was amazing during pregnancy)
- In winter I love a good chicken bone broth and veggie soup which is packed full of nutrients
Snacks
- I share a fruit platter or do a crunch n sip with my toddler. So I might have an In Shape Mummy Shake or a In Shape Mummy Snack Bar and a few pieces of apple or mandarin
- Sometimes we share a few pieces of cheese and Roma tomatoes
- Or celery and carrot sticks with a bit of hummus
- I try and eat the same things as my son so he is encouraged
- I also make my own lactation bites. Here's the recipe I use: 2 cups old-fashioned oats, 1/2 cup ground or milled flaxseed, 3 tablespoons In Shape Mummy Health Shake mix, 1 cup peanut butter or almond butter, 1/2 cup honey, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1/2 cup Nodhu sugar free chocolate chips. Mix all ingredients together then roll into balls. So quick to make
Drinks
- Water water water water... 2L minumum a day. I got myself a fancy 2L ombre water bottle from Kmart and I often put a tea infuser in there to help with the flavour if I'm not so motivated one day
Exercise
During my second pregnancy I did toddler and mum yoga once a week but have a very active son so the rest of my days not working were full of walks and park visits
After pregnancy I did online fitness classes where I could and I also walk a heck of a lot whenever I can but given both my boys were born in winter months... I found the inside work outs really helpful when I couldn't get outside
That may be all I manage but consistently doing SOMETHING is the key!!
Even if you only manage some squats while you wait for the kettle to boil... or squatting when you bend to hang your washing out... it makes a big difference
I also do tummy strengthening exercises on my back (to help with small separation) while my baby did tummy time on my chest :)
After my first born I did retain some weight while breastfeeding so it doesn't "fall off" everyone... but I stuck to my regime and by about 9 months I was 1-2kg off my pre baby weight and a heck of a lot stronger.
Second time around.. I have been fortunate with having done it once... I already had the In Shape Mummy Health Shakes ready to go and started in the hospital. I 100% think the shakes made the difference this time as I started them from day 1. Just magic. I have a ways to go with the toning but I have no more weight to lose. 10 weeks after having my second I lost all my baby weight
Also to note, I have a tonne of milk. Collecting my let-down each breast feed with a haaka I get about 70 ml still
Mindset
I have always been pretty active and mindful of what I eat... but being able to keep up with my children (especially since having the second) at 40....having 2 under 2. . you can't sleep when baby sleeps because #1 is up all day lol
I need as many nutrients as I can get to help keep me energised during the day while suffering the night wakes again with a newborn
I also need to be able to play with my toddler so keeping active is a must. I feel much better mentally when I workout.
Before I start and during.. I hate it lol but after I finish I feel like I've accomplished something small for myself and the endorphins flow from there.. getting started is definitely the hardest part but if you do little bits every day even if you have to stop because the world won't wait for you... it all counts... you can make your workouts and your food choices whatever you want them to look like and do what works for you and your baby
Every day is different and most of your plans will go out the window but if you meal prep where you can or write a list of meals to cook/prepare.. it definitely makes it easier. I use my slow cooker and air fryer where I can and also got a pressure cooker. I will also say that breastfeeding is really important to me for my littles and I love the benefits the shakes and snacks have provided me with-including saving my milk supply after unexpected surgery with my first pregnancy
Keep at it mums! You are doing an amazing job! x

"I discovered In Shape Mummy Health Shakes not long after my second baby was born. He has an intolerance to dairy so I was looking to find something that was safe for breastfeeding, and also vegan friendly. I have recently started a detox program with the help of a naturopath. She was so impressed with the ingredients that she has encouraged me to continue having it! In Shape Mummy has not only helped me lose the 26 kgs I put on in pregnancy, but it’s helped me nourish my body when I’ve been time poor and sleep deprived. It’s the only shake that I actually enjoy the taste of! My breakfast everyday includes ice, almond milk, water, a banana and my In Shape Mummy (my current fave is the caramel fudge!). At 11 months postpartum I feel great! And my breastfeeding journey is still going strong - my milk is in perfect supply for what Bub needs. I cannot recommend In Shape Mummy Health Shakes more highly!”

"I have lost over 30kg with In Shape Mummy Health Shakes, exercise and a complete diet change. I started at size 22 and am a loose size 12 at the moment… and nearly a 10! I feel so much better! With my injuries in my spine, pelvis and knee my weight loss has been the best thing for my pain.
7-8 months ago I couldn’t have even imagined I could drop this much weight! The change in my life has been insane! My advice to other mums is “stick with it and don’t give up!” Thanks so very much for your In Shape Mummy Health Shakes. They are the best thing for mums on the go and while breastfeeding as well. Words can not express how grateful I am with my weight loss. I couldn’t of started this without your shakes. My life is forever changed."
