QA: Kath Stevens – 3rd in Women’s Weight Loss

Please give us a short history of your journey to health and fitness before the challenge.

I was very fit and healthy at school and as a young adult. Loved all sports at university and then running once I started working and couldn’t join team sports as easily. Having 4 kids in 5 years changed my life and my body hugely, and I have struggled to regain core strength and battled with back pain since then. I discovered Sleekgeek in 2016 and did a couple of challenges and was maintaining at my goal weight for a few months before finding out I was pregnant with my 4th child. Big surprise! I again worked my way back with some Sleekgeek challenges, and was maintaining when lockdown hit. Slowly finding my way back again!
