amazing! Kelly White looks amazing! I lost 54 kg after signing up 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge!
Amazingly, this mom managed to turn her life around, get her health back on track, and even dropped six dress sizes!
“I feel like a completely different person, I don’t recognize myself in photos,” Says.
How Kelly lost 54kg and got her health back on track
The Bendigo-based mother of four reveals she knows she needs to make a change after finding herself struggling to breathe at times.
“I was getting really unhealthy, my asthma was getting worse and I was struggling to breathe,” Says.
“I had arthritis in my feet and knees and it was affected by the extra weight, plus my body was sore and sore all the time.”
In fact, the 40-year-old says she was embarrassed about her appearance.
“I was on two blood pressure medications, had blood tests and pre-diabetic symptoms and it terrified me,” Says.
“Soon after, I saw an awful photo of myself from a wedding with friends. I was embarrassed by my appearance.
“I felt ashamed and disgusted with myself for becoming unfit, unhealthy, and unhappy. Then I decided enough was enough, it was time to put on my big pants and change what I didn’t like about myself.”
Kelly’s weight decreased from 133 kg to 79 kg
While Kelly isn’t a fan of using the scale, she says she weighed in at over 133kg.
“I’m not sure of my exact weight, but it was my biggest ever, I’ve been overweight my whole life and was so terrified of the scales,” Says.
I joined The Healthy Mummy’s Facebook page and started reading other people’s amazing stories and trying some recipes. It was the first time I started counting calories.
“I subscribed Health mummy application And I’ve never looked back. I lost 54 kg in total and am currently 79 kg. I went from a size 26 to a size 14.”
Health benefits of losing weight
The best part, Kelly says, is that her doctor was surprised by the results of her latest blood test.
“All my levels were in the normal range, I’ve stopped taking one of my blood pressure tablets and can breathe easily, my asthma is under control and I’ve stopped snoring,” Says.
“I also don’t get much foot pain and the constant aches in my body have almost disappeared.”
And that’s not all! Kelly says she also has more energy and motivation.
“I’ve gained a lot of confidence and I don’t hide from the camera anymore,” she admits. “I voluntarily jump in photos now and have many selfies in my camera roll.”

“I love Mexican lasagna, one-pot Mexican casserole, honey mustard chicken, veggie bread more right now, piles of chocolate pretzel, and raw peanut butter bars, but carrot and date cookies are still my favorite snack!”
