"The XYZ diet worked for me before, so I'm going to do that again" Any diet you have to 'go on', you will at some point have to 'get off'. And you're soon back where you started. #Just sayin. Unfortunately, … [Read more...]
I blogged before about boot-camp for mums with my lowdown on the suitability & safety of boot-camp or military workout classes for mums, new & not so new. I won't get into pros & cons here again, but I am curious as to whether you like them! When looking for a personal trainer or postnatal workout class that specialises in 'getting your body back', these type of workouts … [Read more...]
The MuTu System programme gives you very effective 15 minute workouts for mums. But this morning I was in multi-tasking mood & even that seemed like too long. The dog needed walking, the bathroom needed cleaning, I still haven't sewn in the kids' name labels for starting school next week & that's before I started on any actual *work* work. So I jogged (dragging dog) at 7am this morning … [Read more...]
Weight loss after having a baby is often assumed to be straightforward... hard possibly, but straightforward. Give it time, & it'll come off, right?But what to do some months (or years) down the line when *the mummy tummy* remains? Liska at New Mum Online has a baby belly / mummy tummy / muffin top (whatever you call yours, you might like a little less of it) & she's on a mission to … [Read more...]
Women & their body image often stems from a lack of body confidence & a struggle to find the motivation to change. Female body image is a minefield, one I have written about before... but this isn't about the media, or the portrayal of perfect bodies. This is about YOU! I hear from women who don't like the way their body looks & feels, especially after having babies. Losing baby … [Read more...]
More MuTu Mama feedback... Jacqui's story so far! "I just wanted to say what a fan of your MuTu system I am. I have just finished week 2 and already my tummy is looking so much better - I am amazed at the results and want to say a big thank you!

MuTu Mind Tricks: They're the bit of the MuTu System that deals with your head. Not many 'lose your baby fat' / 'postnatal weight loss' / 'bootcamp your baby fat' solutions are too concerned with your head. A rather glaring omission I feel. Because as well as needing some very clever advice on EXACTLY what you should & shouldn't be doing from an expert (that'll be me, then ;) )you probably … [Read more...]
I'm having a philosophical moment, so please bear with me? Very often we look for the one culprit, the one reason why we're bigger, or wobblier, or less fit, than we'd like to be. The reason WE couldn't possibly run, do any real postnatal exercise, eat in a way that would actually reduce the size of your mummy tummy, take the time to relax, breathe deeply or spend some time looking after … [Read more...]
