And, of course, a massive thanks to our awesome prize sponsors!
Sleekgeek gives away over R100,000 worth of prizes each challenge, with the 4 individual category winners winning R10,000 each!
There are 4 categories with 5 winners in each (50 in total):
- Female Transformation
- Male Transformation
- Female % Weight Loss
- Male % Weight Loss

āļø Judging process:
A quick reminder that we have 4 categories to ensure fair competition: 1) Menās transformation, 2) womenās transformation, 3) menās weight loss, and 4) womenās weight loss.
Transformation is judged by our independent panel of judges via an audited voting process. The Transformation category is determined by who the judges believed had to do the most work to get from ‘Before’ to ‘After.’
Weight loss is judged purely by percentage of weight lost, based on before and after measurements submitted and confirmed by before and after photos (which include a photo of their measurement on the scale).
Sleekgeek and its staff are not involved in the final decision-making and we accept the judges’ decisions as final.
