Judith, 38 yrs, 26kg - “Acting now can release you from the old into the new…”

“Making a lifestyle change is much like replacing shoes when they are past their best. The shoes are completely worn out, yet I delay buying a new pair. Then I ask myself why did I put off changing to new ones? I marvel at how wonderful decent shoes are - comfortable, functional and smart.

My excess weight was secretly distressing me mentally, my joints where starting to show the strain, my physical appearance was tatty - yet I was loath to give up on a body that I considered I was 'comfortable' with. So when my GP recommended I discuss my weight issues with eatfit, I felt torn.

When eatfit suggested that some positive changes could be accomplished I was sceptical. Only three months had passed before I conceded that my comprehensive, personalised programme had broken through not only my weight barrier, but some psychological hurdles as well. With eatfit's guidance I was able to make better choices regarding food, and adapt my existing exercise plan to be more challenging and far more rewarding mentally and physically. Also, eatfit worked with me to set goals and challenges that were measurable and much broader in scope than targets ruled by the scales.

In the past I would have avoided some social and physical activities, knowing that being overweight would negate my enjoyment. Even though I am still on the journey, already I have the confidence to try new sports i.e. surfing and sky diving. Also (dare I say it) - my personality has sweetened!

If you need support, a fresh perspective on your goals, or help to see your potential I would encourage you to contact the eatfit team. Acting now can release you from the old into the new as it did for me - roll on the rest of the year!”
