2 years ago, I started my journey at 146kgs. I was incredibly unhealthy, incredibly unhappy and I didn't recognise myself. I decided to change my eating habits and learnt to enjoy exercise - starting with the very basics. Once I hit 50kgs loss, I started to see old habits start to creep back in and I was very concerned that I would undo all of my hard work. In Feb 2018 I joined Vision Caringbah and I have not looked back since. Not only have I lost another 13kgs but I am now also stronger than ever, healthier than ever and I consider to myself to be a lot more educated on health and fitness. The accountability and friendship that I receive from all of the Trainers is incredible and something I didn't expect - especially Shawn, who has become my friend and mentor - He knows exactly what I'm capable of and exactly what I need each week. In the last 9 months I have learnt to run - completing my first 5km fun run, have made exercising and my own health a priority while developing healthy habits, have hit some insane PB's and met some amazing people. Joining Vision was the best decision I ever made and I have never felt better or happier with myself.
