All my life I have struggled with my weight especially after I had my children. I tried every weight loss program you can imagine; at one stage I even invented my own. These all worked for a day or two but it wasn’t long before I went right back to where I started. Then there was the good old, 'I will start Monday'. How many Monday’s came and went and still had no interest. These all failed miserably and my motivation went out the window.
What I didn’t realize, I was getting heavier and heavier every week. I started to accept my body for what it was and made myself believe that there was no way that my body would go back to being like it was before I had children.
A very good friend of mine, Steve Ganitis, did the Food Patrol Challenge and it wasnt until I saw his results that it made me think, 'hey I’m going to give this a try, what do I have to lose!'
I started my challenge and ran into a few rocky days initially. The first four weeks were the most challenging but by week five, I started noticing changes, my energy levels increased and my body started to change in shape.
By week six I could not believe another major change in my body, the areas around my thighs, buttock and arms, belly had just shrunk. It was an amazing transformation, since then my body and my weight just kept changing and kilos kept dropping.
It has been 20 years since I have been at my current weight and I have to say I am in the best shape that I have ever been in my entire life. Without a doubt this is the BEST weight loss program that has been introduced. My start weight was 69kg and finished at 58kg, total loss 11kg.
A big thank you to my husband Nick, my beautiful children Maria, Georgina and Thanos for your love, support, and words of encouragement, and a huge thank you to my good friend Steve Ganitis for introducing me to the Food Patrol.
The Food Patrol's '90 Day Body Super Challenge' has taught me a new way to appreciate living and loving life smile..
