As a single mum raising her 7-year old daughter, Becky McKillop was struggling. “I’m not going to sugar coat it. At my lowest point, I felt worthless, unattractive and overweight.” She had tried diets, but it had become harder to lose weight. “I saw no light at the end of the tunnel, nothing was working.”
“I am cabin crew, so I work shifts and long hours. I felt awful when I was home, as I just didn’t have the energy to play with my daughter and give her the attention she needed. I’ve always been a worrier, so sleep was difficult.” Everything was adding up, and making Becky feel hopeless. “My stress levels were through the roof.”
A friend told her about Isagenix. “I didn’t feel like I could afford it at first, but after some deliberation, I decided I had to try. I wanted to be a better role model for my daughter.”
Becky calls it the best decision she ever made. “Isagenix has really changed my life. Not just because I’ve lost weight, but mostly because it has helped me improve my mental attitude so much. I have way more energy, I’m less stressed, and I’m sleeping better than I ever have.”
The transformation has done wonders for her self-esteem. “For the first time in years, I feel like I can hold my head high when I walk into a room. I feel ready to move on from the emotionally draining failed relationship that made me feel worthless.”
Most of all, she feels she has hope back. “I look in the mirror and can’t believe this is me. I am a better role model for my daughter, I’m showing her a healthier lifestyle as well as a happier mum who projects a better body image and a more positive mental attitude.”
Her journey will go on, now with the invaluable help of Isagenix. “I have finally found a system that works and although I might not be at my final destination, I am certainly on the right track!”

This is Lara Eastwood’s second IsaBody Challenge and she doesn’t plan on stopping any time soon. “I maintained my weight in this challenge, but I incorporated a gym routine and am very happy to have gained more muscle definition and lost body fat, especially around my midsection.”
“I always wanted to be that girl who loved the gym, but I just wasn’t.” Lara simply didn’t feel confident enough to train in a gym, where she felt exposed. The turning point for her was attending a University in Action event with David T S Wood. “I decided that it was time for me to step out of my comfort zone and leap into my uncomfortable zone.”
Lara signed up for the gym and asked her partner Daniel, who is a physiotherapist and a personal trainer, to help her devise a programme she could start following.
“It was hard at first, as I genuinely thought everyone was looking at me and laughing at the way I did things, but I quickly realised that everyone was in there training for their own goals, and actually not at all interested in what others were doing.” She grew to love spending time at the gym and now finds it a great way to decompress at the end of a busy 12-hour nursing shift.
It’s had a positive impact on her relationship as well. “As my partner has always been interested in fitness, we now go to the gym and train, either together or separately. It’s really nice, and I no longer view the gym as a chore.”
Lara has now signed up for her third IsaBody Challenge. “I can’t wait to see what kind of results I can get this time by being even more committed in the gym!”

Before Isagenix, Thomas Tudor felt constantly tired and lacked energy. “When I pushed my body to its limits, it would respond in a negative way.”
He has used the products now for 2 years and feels he is still improving every day. “When I push myself in the gym, my body responds, and I really feel the added benefits of training.”
This is Thomas’s second challenge and it was a special one for him. “I was living abroad in Spain for the entire time, and I was able to enjoy the great food and the Spanish lifestyle, while still achieving great results.”
His physical results consisted of gaining lean muscle, toning his body, and losing fat. However, the biggest difference Thomas feels is in his confidence. Ever since he attended an Isagenix event, he has felt a shift. “I now have the confidence to share my experience with my friends, family and anyone looking to improve their health.”
Thomas wants to motivate others by sharing his journey and encouraging them to join the Challenge. “I now have more confidence to be the person I am, not the person people want me to be!”

The first thing Miguel will tell you is that Isagenix has changed his life. “It’s been a discovery, how much it’s improving me physically and mentally, and the changes it’s producing in my life.”
He had been doing CrossFit for 2 years, but he couldn’t achieve the results he wanted. “Back then, I couldn’t lose so much as 1kg, but now with this system I have managed to achieve my ideal weight during the Challenge.” He also recovers better from his gym sessions and has a better quality of sleep.
Miguel credits Isagenix with having given him the nutrition he needed to help him achieve his goals. “I have dropped 15kg of fat and gained muscle definition like I’d never had before. And I have now realised how much your nutrition influences your physical as well as your mental well-being.”
He intends to re-enrol in the IsaBody Challenge. “I want to show that with a good nutrition system and the right motivation, you can change, not only physically, but in your way of life.”
Most of all, Miguel is grateful to have a new, more positive outlook. “My wife and I both take the products and we have changed our attitude. We are much happier, and try to be better people every day, and be good role models for our daughter.”
