Perkovic has lost a HUGE 34kg in just nine months by following the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge!
The mum-of-four, who is based in Canberra, reveals the reason she decided to go on a health kick is because she was unable to play with her kids and wanted to be a good role model for them.
“I was struggling to bend down, carry him and get down on the floor to play with him, especially the more active he became,” she says. “I had given up and hated myself. I knew it was time if I wanted to be around to watch him and all my children grow up. I needed to be a better role model.”
Amazingly, Rebecca has gone down from a size 22 to a size 14 and she says she’s seen huge changes in her body. Her face looks slimmer and she even has been told she looks younger now!
“I am seeing changes in the shape of my body, other people saw it before I did,” she says.
“I no longer have several chins as my face has changed a lot, I look younger and healthier. My shoulders, thighs and bottom are becoming toned and strong.
“I look back at photos and can see how far I have come. Mentally it has taken longer to see changes and is a work in progress.”
In fact, Rebecca reveals she has stopped emotional eating and is very aware of what she’s putting into her body.
“I don’t rely on food when I get upset, angry or depressed anymore, if I feel any of these things, reading the support pages, going for a walk or exercising helps. I now believe in myself and make myself a priority,” she admits.
“I can keep up with my toddler and know I can run to catch him if I need to. I don’t feel tired all the time or want to sit and watch TV. I sleep better and my snoring has subsided. We spend Sundays out as a family trying walking tracks.”
“You need to be ready, set your self up for success. I used motivational posters all around my house, especially above my TV, to get me up and moving,” she says.
“Get the whole family involved, having support helps even if it’s just one person. Start with small changes, I started walking, then 10,000 steps a day, then added workouts. Find your why and use it to help you everyday. Believe in yourself, you are worth it!”
