I knew for a while that I was gaining weight but in hindsight I was in a bit of denial. I started ICE training in March an whilst I was getting fitter (just) I knew I had to give my diet an overhaul. I saw the nutrition challenge and I reluctantly got on board. The challenge was pretty hard at first, living in Port Melbourne it was just too easy to eat out and not really plan for every single meal. I don't think I really acknowledged the damage food was doing to my body. The thing I enjoyed most about the challenge was learning about exactly what food I needed. It wasn't a fad diet that told me everything I needed to eat at every meal. It gave me flexibility and education all in one. The past 12 weeks have been great at times and a real struggle at others, until I started to build consistent habits. I lost 10kgs and as you can see from the pictures my body has changed significantly. I still have a long way to go to really understand the program and make my meals more compliant but it's definitely a great start. Thanks so much Dave (and the team) for kickstarting me to a healthier life!
Even though Mel has achieved great results with this 12 week Online Nutrition Program she found it really hard over the first few weeks. We had a really good 1on1 chat about 4 weeks in to this program where Mel clearly explained the obstacles and challenges she was facing at the time with difficult work schedules and together we were able to address and overcome these issues with a clear plan and concentration on improved meal planning and preparation. This new focus along with the extra homework Mel started putting in with watching the video tutorials in her lunchbreaks at work & listening to the soothing tones of Dr Paul Cribb soon helped her to begin increasing her nutritional compliance on a regular basis.

At home, Mel had the full support of her hubby, Dan, who was following closely what she was eating and managed to drop a whopping 19kgs himself over the last 12 weeks. (But that story is for another time) When couples support each other in these situations it is incredible what they can achieve together.
I think the combination of online support and motivation, 3-4 ICE Group Training sessions per week with family & friends at the BossFit studio, lunchtime research / study breaks and encouragement from home has been the perfect combination for Mel's transformation. Her results speak for themselves!
