“I have exercised for a few years now but did not realize what real fitness is! I got so much out of the challenge. Yes – some objective results that I can live with…but more than anything it was a real chance to test myself and challenge my thoughts. How many times can I get myself to training?  How hard can I run today? Can I keep up with Andrea or Mel? Can I do one more burpee! Do I really need those carbs, ice cream etc. I have not felt this good in a long time and am getting more satisfied with myself everyday. Late night snacking is a thing of the past. I know I am not going to starve even if i am a bit hungry … the next meal is only few hours away! Reduced Caffeine. I have dipped my toes in the water now and know i have it in me to do even better next time. i just have to want it enough. Worth every minute! Loved it. Still love it.”

WELL DONE CHALLENGERS!!!!!
