Challenge Winners

In January this year I was a mother to a 1 year-old, a wife & a full-time business woman. I was on holiday with my family & unhappy with my body, which I felt would never be the same after having a baby! This resulted in lower self-confidence & I was always tired. I saw the RIPPED FREAK 12 Week Challenge & told my husband about it, saying we should try it for the new year. In the back of my head i was hoping this would not just be another failed attempt. We have all been there – no time to gym, too busy to prepare food. We entered the challenge and were both committed!

We started with the eating & training plan, we said we would give it a month & see how it works. It was HARD! No-one can tell you something like this is easy! I made the commitment & I was going to stick to it. I was lucky to have my husband there to push me that much further & remind me just to give it the 4 weeks & it would be worth it! We had to make big changes to the make the time fit in the workouts & make sure we are prepared for the next day. It is so true what they say “Fail to prepare, prepare to fail”. The end of week 4 arrived & the results we were seeing were amazing! I felt stronger & had so much energy! Not to mention the loss of 7 kg’s. If this is what 4 weeks had done, imagine what I can achieve in another 8 weeks.

In the next 8 weeks, I fell in love with the PHARMAFREAK products. I am very sensitive to stimulants but I only had positive effects from the RIPPED FREAK Hybrid Fat Burner. We also became very creative with the whey – we created protein pancakes & delicious smoothies. This is very important, get creative, make it exciting! It needs to become a lifestyle & not a diet. I love the Cookies & Cream RIPPED FREAK Protein, mixed with a dash of cinnamon, ice & water, popped into a NutriBullet, tasted like a Cinnabon!

When you come from holiday & see some of the photos taken of you bending over & your stomach is hanging so badly it actually looks like it is trying to run away from you, you realise that something needs to be done.

Fast forward a few weeks & my wife says let’s enter the RIPPED FREAK 12 Week Challenge. I as normal say yes sure, thinking it will last a week or two & we will be back to normal. So we entered, got our supplements, diet & workouts.

I have tried almost every product on the market but in the first two weeks on the RIPPED FREAK Hybrid Fat Burner, I started to see the difference. I started feeling better, my sleeping patterns improved & the weight, well I started to say goodbye to it KG for KG. But don’t fool yourself & think this was a walk in the park. When your body starts getting rid of all the sugar & gluten, you start getting bad headaches & your temper gets shorter & shorter. Now take that & multiply that with two because my wife also entered, so our household was on edge.

There were days where I wanted to eat everything I saw but luckily had someone to push me & say to me, think what you’re doing – eating this now will be good for a few minutes but it will put you back a full week.

The weeks past by & everyone started to notice the changes my body made, plus the fact that my clothes were so big on me I could take two steps & my pants would only move once. This made me more determined to push harder.
