Q&A with Mario Bissolati:

We sat down with Mario who placed second in the Men’s Weight Loss category of our Summer Challenge 2023. We wanted to find out the secret to his success and he was happy to share it with us.

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

This is my second challenge. Before I joined Sleekgeek I was in a bad space. My weight was at 228kg. I struggled to lose weight and ended up at 204 kg. My first challenge I lost 21kg because of the great support structure that Sleekgeek offers and even better in my second challenge with 32kg. There was no way that I could do exercise before and even struggled to walk.

What prompted you to join the Sleekgeek Transformation Challenge?

I came across Sleekgeek on social media and followed them for about 6 years before I decided this is it. I need to do something. I got on the VIP list and that was it. It was the best decision I have ever made.

Give us a quick overview of the nutrition and eating plan that you followed during the challenge.

I followed the 28-day plan that is a low-calorie diet and it worked for me.

Give us a quick overview of the training and exercise plan that you followed during the challenge.

I only did as much walking as I could, as exercise is a bit difficult for me as I had a total right knee replacement in week 5 of the challenge. It was tough but I got through.

If you could give 3 pieces of advice to future challengers, what would they be?

1. Never say never. We all can start somewhere.
2. Join a team because the support is amazing.
3. And if you can let your partner join. It’s so much easier and so much more motivation if you do it together.

Why should people enter the challenge?

This challenge is just amazing. There are no words that can describe it. I will do it over and over again. Not only the support but also all the stuff that’s included. Prizes that motivate you to lose the kilos or transform yourself and if you join the VIP list a free custom nutrition guide specially made up for you. And so, I can go on the list is the too long.
