LISA IS DOWN 9KG'S AND 13% BODY FAT

LISA became a member at MPT Rowville back in November 2016. She joined with her sister Kate, and sister's partner Jeff. Since starting we knew they all would be great at motivating and inspiring each other; losing 14.3kg combined over our 28 day challenge.

Since then, Lisa has gone on to lose 9kg body fat and 13% body fat. In our last 8 week members challenge, she lost 2.3kg's of body fat which may not seem like a whole heap, however it was 16% of her total body fat which is a phenomenal result. Lisa's Mum was also diagnosed with terminal cancer in this time; and while most people would give up and resort back to old habits, Lisa managed to continue training as she felt it gave her a release and was her happy place.

We wouldn't be prouder of all you have achieved Lisa. Congratulations!
