Fenella’s Story

Watch video and hear from weight loss surgery recipient, Fenella, on how she is using amazing strategies and tools to develop her SIX Foundational Pillars of Lasting Success.

We are creatures of habit

Meet Fenella – a beautiful 27 yr old teacher from Bright (country Victoria) who found herself to be at a heavy weight of 165 kilos a few months ago. This was limiting her ability to work as a teacher being on feet all day, with a sore back.

She hated all her clothes and would feel awful when she saw her own reflection, being always aware of feeling like the biggest person in a room. Fenella already had high blood pressure and was worried about being able to have children.

She felt stuck …almost having become a creature of her own “self sabotaging” habits!

So what’s a person to do? Are we doomed to live on automatic pilot, driven by our lower brain and our habits?

Going through surgery was a drastic step for her body, however Fenella had committed herself to making the shift.

She set out to use “newer” tools and use them to motivate her to stay on track, rather than to cause her to lose sight of her goal and fall back!

She created a success blueprint – that has 6 PILLARS
