#84 - Losing 26kgs through pro-metabolic eating with Elzette Smit

I am so proud of Elzette. She’s had a really bumpy road and has been through a lot. It’s really incredible where she is today. It truly shows her persistence and how failing forward pays off.After years of yo-yo dieting, Elzette originally joined our program back in 2018. Yet, she faced a rough patch in her marriage and had to take a step back. She eventually rejoined, but then struggled with a back injury. With 3 kids at home (who she homeschools), her story is super inspiring. Elzette has overcome a lot and she looks and feels amazing. She’s even lost 4 dress sizes throughout this process.But I want you to hear for yourself what she has to say about overcoming obstacles and getting to a happier place in her marriage and life.
