Why did you start training?
“I was overweight, so my initial goal was to lose weight by eating healthier. It didn’t take long to realize that I wouldn’t reach my goal without exercising. Excess skin had become a problem, so working out was the only way to get rid of it.”
What’s been your greatest success?
“I lost 51 pounds (23 kgs) within 9 months and reduced my waistline by over 20 centimeters.”
How have you integrated fitness and healthy eating into your everyday life?

What do you like most about training with Gymondo?
“I love Gymondo’s recipes and all the helpful nutritional information. Additionally, I love the fitness challenges. There’s something for everyone!”
What Gymondo programs keep you motivated?
“My favorite programs are Six-Pack and Beach Body Boot Camp. I use both programs very often.”
How do you stay motivated even in your most difficult times?
“For me, the most important thing is to believe in myself and never give up.”
What was your proudest moment?
“A key moment for me was when my clothes went from tight to baggy. The compliments I received from friends and family members also confirmed my results. And when I finally started measuring my waistline, the results astounded me. I could literally see my success.”
How has your weight loss success changed your life?
“My life has changed 100%. I’m so proud of myself—I can finally wear the clothes I feel most comfortable in. Most importantly, I know what I’m capable of as long as I continue to believe in myself.”
Are there any upcoming challenges or goals that you’ve set for yourself?
“The most important goal I’ve set for myself is to make fitness a part of my everyday life for the rest of my life. I still work out 3 times a week, even though I reached my dream weight.”
What advice do you have for those just starting their fitness journey?
“Never give up. Always think of your goal. It doesn’t matter how slow you go, just keep going. Because you’re still doing something and that’s better than doing nothing at all.”
