Sometimes people come into your life that blow you away.   Ginnie was one of those for me..  She came to me to clean up her health and wellness and in the process lost 19kgs..  We did this via accountability coaching.   She is an inspiration and this is her story.  

Her transformation looked like:  

1. Better and settled sleep habits 

2. Weight loss of 81.3kgs to 62.6kgs in 21weeks - 18.7kgs lost 

3. 64cm off 6 measured sites (chest, waist, hips, upper arm, thigh).  An astonishing 19cm was from the hip area 

4. Large increase in fitness and mobility 

5. Able to complete 5kms running without stopping 

Listen to the podcast to hear how this all unfolded for her...
