Today I would like to celebrate somebody else’s blubberbegone journey. Becca took part in the Precision Nutrition 16-week Challenge. She was one of 340+ people who signed up and one of only 40 or so who submitted final stats and pics. She’s a finalist in her age group and way ahead on the votes. But she is already a winner in my opinion.
She stuck with the challenge through good times and bad, achieving amazing changes in weight, body composition, and fitness. She kept a challenge log throughout (which is where I first came across her) and just reading some of her workouts made my eyes water!
But most importantly, I think, she was a constant inspiration to all those of us who were struggling with the challenge alongside her. She would constantly offer motivation, support, and words of advice on our own logs, particularly when we were a bit down and needed it most. And despite my own withdrawal from the challenge a couple of months ago, I have followed her progress on and off.
I am so proud of her for what she has achieved and incredibly happy for her in reaching her goals and transforming her body and her life. Congratulations Becca. Check out the before and after pics:
