After reversing several compounding health conditions, I have been inspired to become a health coach. In 2019, after a checkup with my doctor, I was told I would be “reclassified” as Type 2 Diabetic after many years of being pre-diabetic, morbidly obese and on increasingly stronger medication for high blood pressure and managing my blood sugar. I was forced to face that the future wouldn’t be great if I didn’t do something! But what do you do when you have tried everything and failed repeatedly?

Fast forward to now, it’s been over two years since I reversed all signs of diabetes, and my HBA1c has been “normal” I am no longer on blood pressure medication, and I have lost 40kgs! From a size 22 to 12 – Yes, you read that right, I still can’t believe I get to type that number!

Getting to where I am now has been a journey of self-discovery and reality checks and will be ongoing; I don’t pretend to be perfect, and I do still indulge from time to time, but I realise that has to be the exception, not the way I live every day. My next journey phase is helping others as a Certified Health Coach.
