My journey from Obese Office Manager to Online Fitness Coach
The Reality of Being Overweight
I deeply know how it is to feel crappy every time you look in the mirror, feel unfulfilled and miserable and to hide behind your weight.
At 22, I was a size 18, doing little to no exercise and taking comfort out of eating, only to feel guilt and regret after doing so.
I had been a sporty child but my transition into sedentary corporate life meant the weight quickly piled on. Life turned into a vicious cycle of driving to work, sitting all day, driving home and binging in front of the tv at night.
I lost all my confidence and simple tasks started to become difficult.
In 2015, I looked in the mirror, feeling like a shadow of my former self, but something clicked and I realised what I had done to my body. I made a choice, right there and then. It was time to turn my life around.
I wanted to free myself from the barriers (both mental and physical) of being overweight and start living the life I’d always dreamt of.
Holding My Head High and Feeling Proud
Ever since that moment, I’ve worked to achieve the lifestyle that I want and can be proud of, but it didn’t happen overnight. I needed a workout routine and diet that I could stick to with a busy work schedule.
I learnt about fitness and nutrition so that I could lose the weight without following a fad diet. I was consistent in the gym and put in the work and prepared healthy meals that helped me stay on track.
Of course, there were ups and downs, and my progress wasn’t linear, but surely enough, my body and my health was changing!
After two years (and working full-time), I had reached my goal weight. I was happier, more confident and had made a healthy lifestyle part of my regular routine.
I had so many people asking me how I did it. I couldn’t stop at my own transformation, I was called to help other busy women do the same. So in 2018 I certified as a personal trainer, nutritionist and coach and now use my personal experience combined with my skills and knowledge to help free others from the cycle of yo-yo dieting and achieve lifelong change.

Restriction and excessive exercise are NOT sustainable in the long term. Willpower is limited and life gets in the way.
