Laydee Lisa has been over 150 kilos since she was a teenager. Getting up to around 260kgs at her heaviest, Lisa was known for her larger than life personality as well as her large physical appearance, earning her the nick name “Big Mama” & “Mama Lisa” Here is her story:
In Late 2010, Doctors told me that I was about to lose my leg due to having a cellulitis infection. At the time I was around 23
0kgs & my belly was so big and hanging over my knees so far that there was no blood flow to my legs & I was in grave danger of losing my leg if the infection spread. I had tried all the diets & was unable to do very basic daily functions. I had broken chairs, toilets, car seats & travelling on planes, public transport or socialising were basically not possible as I could barely stand or walk. I decided at the age of 36 that it was time to Live. It was time to beat this once and for all. I sought counselling of many different types, both professional & spiritual. I wanted a holistic alternative and that the only option available was to educate myself on nutrition & physical activity, get moving, organising my life & take the time and make the effort to move forward, FEARLESSLY! I was in a physical & financial situation where there were not a lot of options, & at times thought I was too far gone & that there was no way to beat this.. that there was no way out. But daily affirmations and moving towards a solutions focus rather than a problem focus, was a hard but necessary transition. I have lost over 80kgs & still losing. I am now a qualified personal trainer and know the limitations of an obese person compared to excuses. I’m still over 140kgs myself and I’m using my knowledge, skill & the success & experience of being well over 200 kilos to a never before seen level. No one has the experience and knowledge and expertise of what’s required to lose it, to help others understand what it takes to lose weight & keep it off more than I do. If you have been struggling with weight, no matter what size you are and have tried just about everything, AND WANT TO BE HEALTHY AND HAPPY MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD then I would love to be able to help you. They say there is no time like the present.. so contact me today! Id like to take the time to acknowledge some of those that have assisted me on my journey of health over the last 10 years or so.
