Garry and Jackie’s Story

Barely able to breathe in these life vests!

Throughout their lives husband and wife team Garry and Jackie Holden, originally from the UK, tried and tested pretty much every diet possible but could never actually keep their weight off, until now.

 

With one another’s support, they managed to reach their own personal goals, with Garry losing over 40kgs, and Jackie losing 25kgs, despite a medical condition that seems to make her body just want to retain fluid and fat!

 

Together they achieved this fantastic result in less than 5 months and, more importantly, have discovered and are keen to share one of the most valuable lessons of their journey….how to maintain their weight loss. They are both so much happier and healthier and are back to truly enjoying married life. You just don’t realize it at the time, but lying on a couch, eating junk food and drinking beer while watching TV for endless hours a day, as fun as it may sound to some, is really not the way to live!

 

A fun way to burn calories!

As a teenager, Garry fell into the wrong crowd and started drinking and partying to excess which in turn led him to making really poor food choices. Let’s face it, what are you going to buy to eat in the early hours of the morning after a heavy drinking session with your mates – a garden salad and flavoured mineral water?! Mainly living on fast food and takeaways, Garry often admitted if the old saying was true that “you are what you eat” he would definitely be fast, cheap and easy! So it was around that time that his weight spiralled out of control.

 

Jackie never really worried about her weight until her early twenties when following an illness she was prescribed medication which caused her to gain a large amount of weight in a very short space of time. She was very unhappy and felt she had missed out on fully enjoying her twenties and thirties because of being overweight and lacking in self confidence.  She simply hid behind her smile and struggled on, feeling very lonely and desperate, trying constantly to lose weight in the hope of being truly happy.

Fast forward some 20 years, which saw a life changing move from the UK to the paradise that is Phuket in Thailand, marriage, change of careers, and Garry’s life changing appearance on ‘The Biggest Loser Asia’ to find a happy, healthy couple that have truly found the meaning of a happy marriage together with their own success in life.

 

They will share with you how they simply took themselves back to basics and between them devised an easy weight loss plan without any of the fads or extreme alternatives. Together they achieved their weight loss goals and now Garry and Jackie invite you to join them and kick start your own life on the beautiful island that is Phuket, Thailand.

Thanks for the great experience that your weight loss programme has given me. I signed up with Garry and TUWLE because I needed help to get started.
