TESTIMONIALS THE BODY TRANSFORMATION CHALLENGE 2009
Dear Lorraine Thank you for this lovely and inspiring Newsletter. I am constantly getting inspired and excited as I can start wearing clothes I haven’t worn in years. I get compliments everyday which boosts my self esteem even more to carry on and do my best. The other day I went to fetch my daughters friend in Westville and the father thought it was my daughter driving….hee hee …..I love that!!! Today I am at the halfway mark. 6 weeks. I have lost 10kg. I am loving the shakes and don’t often feel hungry. The diet is sufficient for me to get through the day. I also feel more energetic which is great because we have a huge property here at the SPCA and I have to do a lot of walking around. I am looking forward to my one month at gym during November to tone up more. Take care |
BARBARA MASTERSON| CLAIRE O'REILLY Hi Lorraine, I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to you and to Navin. These twelve weeks have been a revelation. Sometimes I have moaned a bit about not being able to indulge myself in anything I wanted to eat or drink, or in being lazy, but I feel fantastic. And (apart from photos this morning) I have learned to stop hating my body and actually be quite proud of it and what it can achieve. Lorraine, at the beginning when you said in your emails that we’d learn a new lifestyle, not just do this for 12 weeks, I didn’t quite buy into it. Mostly, if I’m honest, because I didn’t really want to change my lifestyle as I rather enjoyed it, and thought anything else would be restrictive and just plain bland. But you were right. I have actually learned to like this, and that’s been one of the biggest surprises. So, while I am really happy with what I’ve achieved, the best thing, for me, is to know with absolute confidence that it’s not a “once off” achievement that will fall away when I stop and go back to “real life”. I am thrilled that this now is the real life me, and I’m only going to be getting stronger and fitter going forward, and enjoy doing it too. So thanks again you two. I know that you’ve influenced many other people as well during this challenge, not just me, and that you’ve put an immense amount of hard work into it. I hope you are proud of the positive effects you have had on so many people. You guys are the ones who deserve the awards. Warm regards |
| DION DHANRAJH Dear Lorraine, Its with great pleasure that i RSVP to the function. I will be definitely attending the ceremony. I would love to say that although the transformation competition has come and gone, i still have the drive and the excitement to enter the gym like i always had. A great thank you to Navin and yourself for all the motivation and courage during this time. The entire body transformation truly does work. Thank you and take care. regards |

Good morning my frend :-).... Well today i jus feel like talking to someone and that lucky person would have to be none other than you :-)...You know Lorraine when i started the body transformation challenge,the first week i thought there was no hope i also thought that i weigh 92kgs and getting rid of it was more effort than anything else and that i should jus relax and quit the challenge.Well week one was the worst ever il never forget the mood swings the tierdness oh the depression,the smell of foods i couldnt eat the dizzyness while training.I wanted out and i wanted to quit right there right now.At that moment in my life nobody supported or could comment how well im doing as it was only the second day.I pressed on and in my head i told myself i can do this..My mum stepped in and she said,you are my son and i will help and support you through this you will get through this i am on your side.Lorraine thats all i needed to hear.I PUSHED MYSELF!!!!!Every step on that treadmill every weight i picked up i did it for mum,there were days were i jus couldnt do it but i stopped heard my mums voice and BAM i did it..By week three the results were starting to show and people were noticing me drop weight :-).....Well this made me happy and what i did was use all that positive feedback to help me train..In 4 weeks i lost 13kgs there were no words for that one jus "SHOCKED". Well lastnight we had home church and there was and aunty there who was speaking about her son and she said it took him 8 months to loose 8kgs.It took me 5 weeks to loose 14kgs i was now there here.Well on a lighter note they all want to change there eating habbits and start training as i have motivated them.So lastnite they said when your diet is over we all going to cook something and have a meal with you (too sweet)...They still cant get over what ive done and how ive done it :-)...Well it was alot of hard work i wont ever lie about that but sometimes in life we get into a comfort zone i picked myself up and i pushed on and now i have so much more support and motivation even from my very own enemies. Thank you for this challenge my frend as alot has been learnt and most of all thank u for jus listening and been there for me now u can see i needed your help when i e mailed before, and u gave it freely and with a good heart.When i was down and out u were also there to support and motivate me, and for that i pray God blesses you and your family :-)... Thanks again |

Good day Lorraine, Firstly,it was wonderful to meet you last night,thanks very much. Thanks for the evening last night – it was great to meet others who participated in this challenge.Duane was a perfect winner and his poster looked superb – he really did transform himself. I did contact him this morning and congratulate him too. We will certainly stay in contact as I found you to be a great motivator and I will continue to use your products as I find these to be just what I need. Thanks again for everything and have a wonderful day |
GRAEME IMPSON| NICOLE IMPSON Hi Lorraine, I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your encouragement with Graeme. It really has meant so much to him. I am so proud I could burst. I keep wanting to show everyone his pictures. (I think he is going to ban me from taking the camera out!!) . On the personal side, I must acknowledge that this transformation has helped with Graeme’s back pain, and knee pain, it has given him renewed energy. He is engaging more with our 3 children. (They are a handful on their own, being boys of 8, 6, & 4yrs) He is more confident at work and in social circles. For me, as his wife – this body transformation, hasn’t only been about changing his body (although, what a body it now is!!), it has changed his life, and my life. Even though I didn’t come on board with the challenge, I was affected, just from supporting him, I lost 6 Kgs myself. (without even really trying, honestly, I only train 3 times a week, because I’m a working mom, I have an extremely sweet tooth, and enjoy a little wine periodically – so can you imagine what I could have done if I had the same determination?). Like I said to Grae this morning – you have won this whole challenge, because at the end of the day, you were the only one competing with you, and you can be proud that you have come in first place! Thank you again and to your entire team!! God Bless, |
| JOSI Thanks so much for all your advice and news! I am REALLY going to miss your mails! I have a bit of a worry – I had my hubby take my ‘before’ photo and mailed it in and it wasn’t a full length one, I think it cut off above my knees– I know there’s nothing I can do about it now…but it does niggle at me!!!! I couldn’t sleep last night thinking about it and kicking myself…. Anyways I feel a tiny bit better for sharing that with you…. I am absolutely thrilled with my new body and this challenge has by far exceeded my expectations! Have a stunning weekend and I look forward to meeting you at the award ceremony… Byeeeee |

Hi, Here's my final photo for the Body Transformation Challenge. Start weight: 123.5 In the end, I lost less weight than I planned, but I also gained a lot more muscle (and a LOT of strength) than I expected to on a calorie deficit. The challenge was literally a life changer for me. It got me back into the gym and eating healthy after 5 years of being essentially a 'desk potato'. That to me is the biggest reward ever. Going for a workout has now become an important part of my day again, and eating clean has become really easy. To me, this is just the first phase of a much bigger mission - next stop: single digit bodyfat percentage and also getting back to elite level in my favourite sport/hobby: submission wrestling/MMA. Thanks for everything. Best, |
JUNAID GAMIELDIEN| ROSEMARY Hi Lorraine, Darryl and I are still losing weight and feeling GREAT! We were just wondering when the winners will be announced etc – gala evening and so on. Surely it should be quite soon? We just want to thank you again for all the wonderful encouraging emails keeping us on track! The challenge has really changed our lives and people continue to remark on our transformation! Thanks |
| SHIKAR PIRTHI My name is Shikar Pirthi, age 21, 12 weeks I weighed 86kg's. I looked and felt ugly. Dieting and keeping fit was always a problem for me, because I was a very lazy person. But thanks to all the motivation from Navin Leeladhar (Nav Bhai) and SSS Team I lost 15kg's in 12 weeks. Bing an actor I have to look good and now I do! I'd like to thank Moses very much for helping me loose my unwanted weight and Malcolm for giving me Lekker Biceps! Now I look good and feel good, thanks SSS. |
SHAUN RYAN The kind and helpful staff at the SSS Gym in Westville promote an "easy going" environment where members can feel comfortable being themselves and train at their own pace. A good combination of the appropriate supplements, a thought out gym routine and eating plan encourage a healthy and rewarding lifestyle. This, mixed with a personal interest in the wellbeing of their clients, ensures that all members of the SSS Gym leave satisfied after each workout and happy that they are on the road to achieving their goals. |
I started the program weighing 79.9kg's after 4 weeks of dieting the SSS way with the Lean Protein shake & Metabolic Enhancers I started to see a visible loss. I felt more energized, not bloated and the diet never left me feeling hungry. When I hit 8 weeks my weight loss stopped and muscle gain started. I am feeling at my best now with a weight of 73kg's. Thanks to the team at SSS for all the support, advice and motivation. I couldn't have done it without you. |
WARREN LUCAS
Ever since I took part in the SSS Gym competion and managed to surpass my goal weight, I've found that I've benefited in so many areas of my life, from doing better in my sports to just an increased feeling of wellbeing. My life is better for achieving more than my goals in the gym. Thanks to the program, the supplements and support given by the SSS Team I was able to achieve my goals. |
MARK HARVEYCHARLES NELSON
My wife and I went to the Durban North gym where we have been members for the past 3 yrs. That evening we met Omashni and Malcolm. Dawn spoke to Omashni regarding my weight. Her reply was why not get Charles to join the competion Shed Those Kilo's. I was reluctant to diet, but after Malcolm spoke and encouraged me to enter the competion, Malcolm explained how the SSS products work and he gave me a diet plan. The eating plan was very easy to follow even whilst at work I could take supplements. I started the competion at the weight 108.6kg's at the end of the 12 weeks my weight was down to 85.8kg's in total I lost 22.8kg's. My cholesterol plus blood pressure has dropped to normal, I feel great having lost all this weight. This is due to the eating plan and supplements taken I would recommend the SSS supplements to anyone wanting to loose weight. I also feel I should mention that I have found it quite easy to maintain my goal weight. Thank you SSS for helping me and encouraging me along the 12 week journey. |
In February I was told by my Doctor that I had to lose weight, as my cholesterol and blood pressure was high...LORRAINE ROSS
Your supplement range is second to none and that Lean Protein Choc flavour is a delight to drink and those Metabolic Enhancers set me up for the day and of course you know that I wouldn't be without my L-Glutamine as I'm now lifting the heavy weights and need those nutrients. It just proved to me that staying fit and healthy and transforming my body to become a lean and mean machine has enabled me to look life straight in the eye and just go for whatever I want because if the mind can see it then the person can achieve it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Lorraine |
What can I say Navin? You know the difference having you as my personal trainer and entering the Body Transformation Challenge has made to my life. I entered this challenge in the middle of my divorce and moving house and I won the Challenge!!!
Navin and SSS Gym have given me confidence to wear clothes I never would previously have worn as I now have muscles. I worked hard with Navin to achieve this transformation and thoroughly enjoyed my 12 weeks on the Body Transformation Challenge and all I can say is 'Roll on the next one' because I'll be there and this time I intend winning. Regards Steve |
STEVE LAVENDERMAGLIN PILLAY My name is Maglin Pillay. 12 weeks I weighed 103kg's. My goal was to loose about 8 - 10kg's. I found that by using SSS weight loss program, as well as SSS products (Metabolic Enhancers & Lean Protein) I was able to not only reach my goal but I lost a little more weight. I lost a total of 11kg's. Thanks to SSS & their products I am able to live a healthier and balanced lifestyle. |
TYSON HETTER SSS changed my life. Slowly my confidence has increased tremendously. Being a teenager, self confidence is key to enjoying one's teenage years. Through the competion I lost 13.5kg's and physically I feel more energized, alert and proud of the way I look. Thanks to SSS for making me realize my full potential. |
THE BODY TRANSFORMATION CHALLENGE 2008 PETER WALTERS My name is Peter Walters. I am 46 years old. I joined the SSS Gym early December 2007, 8 months ago. I desperately needed to change my lifestyle. I hold a high stress management position which was accompanied by a daily intake of 10 cups of coffee and 15 cigarettes daily, not quite the optimum nutrition plan. The day I joined the gym I stopped the smoking, cut the coffee down to 2 cups and started drinking water. 12 weeks ago I was approached to participate in the competion; I weighed 83kg's. My aim was to lose excess fat and gain lean muscle to shape my body. I used four products in the SSS supplement range, Lean Protein, Active Recovery Boost, L-Glutamine and Metabolic Enhancer. I personally prefer these products to the others on the market. I changed my eating habits to six meals a day with two of these being Lean Protein shakes. I averaged on 4 training sessions of 1.5hrs a week using the SSS resistance training program to achieve optimum results. My body shape improved and became more defined and my weight dropped to 80kg's. I now have an improved posture, more energy, no more physio visits and I have found a huge improvement in stress management. |
NATHAN "A healthy lifestyle has allowed me to unlock hidden potential. I approach life with a new sense of focus and determination. The key is not only to train hard but to train smart, the support of the SSS Team was great" |
BRAM SNIGDERS
I started my 12 week diet with the SSS weight training program. Using the Creatine & Muscle Builder. I reached 110kg's. For the second part of the program I used a weight training and cardio routine. I followed the SSS diet and used Creatine, Glutamine, Lean Protein and the Metabolic Enhancer. After 6 weeks I got my weight down to 97kg's with a low fat percentage. Thanks to the SSS Team for all your motivation and advice. |
