This week, we celebrate the successful WeightLoss of Renae Pardon. Here’s her story:

Living never tasted so good! Before my Gastric Sleeve surgery, food ruled my life. As a working single mother, I always went for the fastest and easiest food options. I didn’t realise how much I let it consume me and the effects it had on my daughter as well. Now, I have a taste for life and I am chasing that half-century loss! At 48kgs lost in 11 months, I have lost my daughter in weight!

It’s the little things that I took for granted before, that I now love. Being able to walk more than 10km at a time, sitting on plastic chairs at restaurants and not fearing that I will break the legs, being able to breathe clearly when I lay down and having the confidence to go out with friends has been indescribable. Even though there have been some really difficult moments during my journey, I would do it all again. I am finally free and I can now see a future past tomorrow.

WeightLoss Warrior,
Renae Pardon
