You may have seen from my post a few weeks ago that I was chosen as one of the mummies to try out the MuTu System – a combination of exercises and healthy eating to combat my ‘Mummy Tummy’. So I thought I’d give you a little update on how I’m doing.
The first 2 weeks I did really well. I discovered loads of new foods I liked, including rye bread, Dr Karg crackers and cashew nut butter. I didn’t eat anything I shouldn’t have and I started feeling less bloated. I did the gentle exercises every day, but I wasn’t so good at getting the trainers out to get sweaty! Anyway, I did lose 4lbs and several family members commented on how well I was looking, so I was very happy!
Last week, it all went a little off track. The pressures of intensive recipe testing got to me and I slipped back into my old ways. Hardly any exercise and too many bad things to eat left me feeling sluggish and bloated again and the flabby tummy began to make a reappearance.
Anyway, I am writing that off as a bad week and I am back on track today and feeling positive. The recipes testing is done, the healthy shopping has been ordered and the trainers are ready to face some action. I am off to watch my next set of videos now to boost my motivation and learn some new exercises. Wish me luck!

It is, isn’t it? But I’m on track again now and lost the 2lb bloat I’d put back on! 🙂

Hi. I did a search on MuTu and your blog came up. Your site looks really good, enjoyed reading your articles I have signed up for regular updates. Are u able to tell me more about MuTu? Did u continue the program. Is it do-able? Is it worth considering. Love to give it ago, but scared its another disappointing diet scam. Thank you.

Hi Nicola, thanks for stopping by. The MuTu programme was really easy to follow and I know even more work has been put into it since I started. Wendy is very supportive and is always on hand to answer any questions and keep you going. I stuck to the programme for about 6 weeks and it did start to work for me – I lost weight, felt great and stuck to the exercises. I have a lot of weight to lose so I switched to Slimming World for a bit but will definitely be going back to carry on with the exercises in the MuTu system.
