My Second Chance At Life with Lee Martin


Listen Later

4 years ago Lee decided it was time to dedicate that year to address her health.
At the time she was suffering from terrible plantar fasciitis in both feet and knew her family history of bowel cancer and gastric issues, she also was unhappy with her weight. Once she took this step it was discovered that she had a
huge Hiatus Hernia that had pulled 2/3 of her stomach from its lining. An operation was needed to fix the hernia and assess the damage to her oesophagus.

3 hrs of surgery later, the hernia was back in her stomach, the oesophagus was repaired and ended up with a roux en y bypass as a result of the damage. Lee's life was about to change drastically and in her words, she got a second take, a second chance at life.
If these issues went untreated there was a chance of death.

So much has changed in her life in the last 4 years from the diet, food intake methods, food limitations, a renewed enthusiasm for exercise, 45kilos weight loss and a WHOLE LOT of learning to love herself, be present with her family and get in the family photos!

Lee wants to inspire fellow women and mothers to permit themselves to put themselves and their needs first. Make yourself a priority so that you can be the best version of yourself for your family.
