I have struggled with my weight since I was a teenager; after school, when I started working, I started dieting. I lost weight and got pregnant with my first; I only put on 2kgs my whole pregnancy, and I was lighter after I had her. I spent my 20s either pregnant or breastfeeding. After four children, I thought I was done, so I returned to the gym and lost weight, eating six small meals daily. I then stopped working at the gym, stopped working out, and then got pregnant again. After I had my last daughter, I struggled again to lose the weight I would lose then gain. Doing all the things I knew. Then, my marriage ended abruptly, and my weight piled on. When I met my now husband, I was at my heaviest, 120kgs, despite my age and weight being against me. At 44, I became pregnant with our son. I lost 10kgs when I was pregnant with him. Towards the end of 2019, I started Keto and, over six months, lost 30kgs.

Then, due to lots of stress and not having time to look after me, I put it all back on. Three months before my 50th birthday I decided to start fasting again, I eat whole foods in my eating window. I wanted to lose 10kgs before my birthday, but I lost 20. Over the next six months, I lost another 15 kgs and have kept that off within 3kg on either side. I have lowered my BP and dropped from a size 20 to a size 12. I am blessed to walk along the beach at least 12km daily, sometimes double that. I am so grateful to Graeme Currie and the Fasting Highway family, who keep me on track.
