My little blonde baby is growing up so fast 😭🤍🩵

I was a guest lecture at SGS College yesterday! Weightlifting for Sports Performance. Then a practical about how to coach the lifts from scratch utilising the derivatives. The last time I was pregnant 🤰🏼 so it was good to be back with full lifting capacity 🤗 @daviesj88

DM COMMIT or 121 for more information on sustainable ways to do this to combat yoyo dieting 🙌🏻♥️

Please please please don’t consider quick fixes like this ♥️🥺 It doesn’t set you up for success in the long term future of maintaining weight loss.

7) They haven’t learned a thing about how to eat properly to fuel their feeding or body in a healthy balanced way. Their link is now shake=weight loss. Food=weight gain. 😭😭😭

6) These women are most likely going to lose the weight with these shakes which just puts them in a calorie deficit. Then start eating their normal diet again of actual food which is most likely going to have more calories in and gain the weight again. The diet cycle.

5) She posted a while ago about how when you breastfeed it comes from the fat in your bum. I questioned her asking ‘isn’t this just from sitting more and being less active?’ She ignored my post. This was when I first started to doubt her.

4) She is not a PT, nutritionist or dietitian. She is isn’t trying to help these women achieve anything long term for a healthy lifestyle or food relationship, it’s another short term win for her to make money. Which males me lose trust in her whole page now.

3) This now creates a false assumption that this shake will be the only way these women can lose weight and maintain a healthy flow in breast milk. In turn creating unhealthy relationships with food and weight loss. And their bodies. It takes me back to slim fast days 🫨😵‍💫

2) She is taking advantage of their trust in her for her knowledge as she spins it as a product that will help maintain breast milk production as they lose weight. Pretty clever tbh as this is her whole page. This is what she does. Sells products to help production.

1) She is preying on the weak. Now I’m not saying breastfeeding women are weak. They are incredible. All mums are. But their identity and body image has changed drastically over the last few weeks/month/years. I would say they have become vulnerable. It’s a whirlwind.

I came across a post today from a breastfeeding ‘expert’ about losing weight while breastfeeding. She was promoting and selling a ‘shake’. This upset me for a number of reasons:
