I never thought I would be where I am today. Just after my previous birthday, I realised that I could not continue on my current path. I struggled to walk up stairs, and even doing small tasks, such as getting up off the floor, was something I was unable to do. I did not want to go anywhere, and takeaway food was the norm in our household.

Now, having lost just over 20% of my body weight, those small tasks are much easier, and I could not be happier with my progress over the last 18 months. The support and encouragement have been nothing short of amazing.

My personal trainer, Alyce, has been so supportive and has helped me navigate my journey to where I am today. The team at Vision, along with all the support from the group training sessions, has been awesome. I have always felt welcome by everyone who attends these sessions and truly feel like part of an extended community.

Thank you to Vision for listening to me, supporting me, and encouraging me to achieve goals that I never thought were possible. I am so grateful for this successful journey.
