Matthew Ferguson
Age: 32
Hometown: Hawthorn, Vic
Gained: Lean muscle

As a child, Matthew Ferguson’s dream was to play AFL. Despite believing he didn’t have the talent, Matthew worked hard to make his dream come true but after 13 years in the sport and to his dismay, Matthew began to feel physically exhausted and mentally drained. “I felt tired and as though my body could no longer keep up,” says Matthew. “For the first time ever, I was beginning to question my passion.”

With Matthew now unsure of his direction, he began to feel lost. “My body could no longer keep up with what I wanted it to do,” shares Matthew. “I knew in order to get myself out of the funk I was in, I’d need to try something different and challenging.”

Open to the idea of switching up his nutrition, Matthew began using the Isagenix products and joined his first IsaBody Challenge. “I experienced the most accelerated gains in strength and fitness,” says Matthew. “Incorporating the AMPED™ range was a real game-changer for me. I had the energy to train even after working ten hour days as a constructions worker.”

“The IsaBody Challenge encouraged me to set both small and big goals. I’m the leanest, yet the heaviest I’ve ever been. I have regained my passion for AFL and I love inspiring others. I’ve unlocked my true potential and I couldn’t have done it without the Challenge.”

Simone De Graaf
Age: 44
Hometown: Dapto, NSW
Weight Released: 18.2kgs

As a mother of two young children, Simone De Graaf leads a busy life. After living a relatively healthy and active lifestyle with little thought and concern about her health and weight, Simone soon began to notice a change in her body after her 35^th birthday.“ “Something happened,” shares Simone. “I soon noticed I was gaining excess weight and my energy levels were dropping rapidly.”

A usually social and lively person, Simone felt herself begin to withdraw from her friends and family. “I suddenly hated looking at myself in the mirror and would avoid attending work functions and nights out,” shares Simone. “Things I used to enjoy, such as playing with my children and cooking for my family, became a chore.”

After sharing her struggles with a colleague, she was introduced to the Isagenix® system and registered for her first IsaBody Challenge®. Simone’s determination throughout the Challenge resulted in an 18kg weight loss, a surge in energy levels and a newfound respect for herself.

“By completing the IsaBody Challenge, I have been able to achieve milestones I never thought were possible. I’ve gained a strong passion for life and motherhood and I can honestly say I haven’t felt the way I do now since I was 20. I can’t thank the IsaBody™ community enough for all the support they have provided along the way.”

Lachlan Stuart
Age: 26
Hometown: Newstead, QLD
Weight released: 2kgs

Prior to registering for the IsaBody Challenge, Lachlan found it difficult to juggle work and home life. Prioritising his business, Lachlan soon noticed his health was being neglected. “I was so focused on work I had let my nutrition and exercise regime slip,” admits Lachlan. “I had gained excess weight and was focusing so much on one thing only. I didn’t recognise the person I’d become.”

In an attempt to introduce balance back into his life, Lachlan registered for the IsaBody Challenge. While releasing excess weight, Lachlan was able to gain control of his health again by focusing on his nutrition and workouts. “Taking the time daily to enjoy having great nutrition, cleanse weekly and train towards something really lit me up,” shares Lachlan. “I am now able to wake up and stay focused on my goals knowing that I can balance health with business and my lifestyle.”

“The IsaBody Challenge encourages you to asses all aspects of your life in order to achieve the most positive results. During my Challenge, I became so much leaner and I reignited my passion for exercise and nutrition. Even better, I’ve been able to keep track of my progress to use as a benchmark for my next Challenge!”

Donna Birt
Age: 36
Hometown: Flat Bush, NZ
Weight released: 10.7kgs

Donna Birt is a woman on a mission. Shortly after giving birth to her daughter, Lexie, Donna’s marriage ended and she found herself a single mother with a daunting amount of responsibility. “I had gained an excess 21kgs during my pregnancy and felt disheartened by what I saw in the mirror,” shares Donna. “With my lack of confidence came the re-emergence of bad habits. I had fallen into a rut.”

It wasn’t long before Donna realised how far she’d fallen. “I realised I couldn’t let myself be in a place of self-loathing and negativity anymore,” says Donna. “It wasn’t just my life I was responsible for now. I decided I wanted to be the best possible role model for my daughter in all aspects of life.”

Having experienced success in her first IsaBody Challenge three years prior, Donna knew embarking on a second Challenge was the first step to her new life. “The IsaBody Challenge had helped me transform my body and regain my confidence before so I was excited to start again, now as a mother with different goals and aspirations.”

It wasn’t long before Donna’s transformation occurred. “I began to form new, daily habits that have stuck with me,” says Donna. “I feel more confident, calmer and happier and I released 10.7kgs during the Challenge too!”

“I feel that I have gone from zero to hero since completing the IsaBody Challenge. I am proud of my body, my life and the positive example I am setting for my daughter. The IsaBody Challenge has taught me that I can achieve anything I set my mind to.”
