QA: Mari-Louise Beach – 5th in Women’s Weight Loss

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

I was on Anti-depressants for almost 6 years of my young life, it was a really tough time and I gained allot of weight. About 4 years ago I went off the medicine and another year later I started my weighloss journey. In total I have lost an awsome 28kg and now live a healthy happier life.

What prompted you to join the Sleekgeek Transformation Challenge?
