I had no energy and would make excuses as to why I could not go to the beach with friends, and I became quite insular and not as outgoing as I used to be. My social life took a knock. I would spend evenings on the couch eating Pizza and junk food.
I was first introduced to RMR when I attended a talk by Prof.Tim Noakes at the UCT Medical School in 2013. I bought the Real Meal Revolution cookbook at that time. As a family we adopted the low carb lifestyle and loved it. I lost about 15kgs. Then old habits crept in. At the end of the first lockdown I weighed about 78kgs…. I realised I needed to make a change.
I started watching Jono’s podcasts. I had sent the Podcast to my sister Danielle.
My two sisters and my mom signed up with RMR and they were on the Pilot Hero Program. I had serious FOMO and I then Joined the next Hero Program as I did not want to be left behind.
