My husband works away most of the time in the mines and I am home with all the responsibilities of our two teenage children, my full time job, our home and the dog. It is a lonely life and for many years I used food as a comfort.
I used to work in a childcare centre as a cook so I was surrounded by food all the time.
When I met Monica I was at my lowest and bit by bit Monica has helped me understand why I felt like I did and why I ate food the way I did.
When Monica asked me for a “before” photo I realised I don’t have very many because I would avoid having my photo taken.
It hadn’t always been plain sailing along my journey of losing weight but with the help and support you get at the Chocolate Frog you can reach all your goals. They teach you about the importance of food and its quantities, exercise and your emotional wellbeing.
Where other weight loss programs failed, and with Monica’s persistence through good times and bad, I have lost 30kgs so far. This amazes even me.
I have not finished my journey with the Chocolate frog yet but I know that I will and I know I will never have to feel the way I used to about myself or my life.
The confidence that I have now I owe to Monica and her team at the Chocolate Frog. I had the confidence to quit my job in the kitchen and go for a job I would never have thought I would get. To my amazement I got the job and I love it.
Let me say “Thank You Monica” for giving me back my life.
