Arpna had always considered herself someone who enjoyed being active.
She’d go for walks, squeeze in a few gym sessions each week, and generally felt like she had a good relationship with fitness.
But over the course of five years, her weight slowly crept up, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t keep it off.
Every time she lost a little, it came back.
Every time she thought she had control, it slipped through her fingers again.
“I was yo-yoing constantly. My bigger clothes started getting tight… and I refused to buy the next size up.”
But the trigger wasn’t just about weight.
Five years ago, Arpna lost her uncle to brain cancer. The grief left a mark.
At first, she went down the “life’s too short, enjoy everything” path.
But that mindset didn’t last long.
“I had this realisation that life is too short, but that’s exactly why I need to get fit and healthy. To be here for my boys, my husband, and myself.”
The final push came when her son’s ASD diagnosis became imminent. The stress was overwhelming.
She knew something had to change. Not just physically, but mentally and emotionally too.
She Didn’t Want A Quick Fix. She Wanted Lasting Change
Unlike many transformation stories, Arpna wasn’t starting from scratch.
She was already exercising. She already ate fairly well. But there were two things holding her back:
1. Mindless snacking.
An extra biscuit with tea, a glass of wine with her husband, ice cream on the sofa, a handful of crisps while watching a film.
2. Lack of sleep.
With two young children, late nights spent tidying up, prepping for the next day, and scrolling social media left her running on 5–6 hours a night.
She was constantly pouring from an empty cup and it was starting to show.
Enter RNT: The System That Finally Made It Stick
What changed everything for Arpna wasn’t a diet. It wasn’t a training plan. It wasn’t cutting out chocolate forever.
It was structure. Education. Accountability.
“The process was so educational. I learnt about macros, how protein actually keeps me full, and how to lift properly. I thought I was lifting weights before, but now I’m pushing double or triple what I used to.”
She didn’t just become fitter.
She became stronger, more resilient, and more confident in her body and her mind.
She loved the daily checklists. The weekly check-ins with her coach. The community.
But most of all, she loved that it fit into her life as a mum, a wife, a woman with real demands on her time.
“The hardest part was saying no when everyone around me was indulging. But I stuck to it. I reminded myself why I started.”
The Physical Was Just The Beginning
Losing 23.8kg was never the full story.
The real transformation came from how Arpna started to show up in her everyday life.
She became sharper mentally. More focused at work. More present with her children. More intentional with her time.
“I don’t waste energy now. I scroll less. I don’t go out just for the sake of it. I bring snacks with me and don’t care what anyone thinks. I see food as fuel and that mindset shift has changed everything.”
She still enjoys the occasional glass of wine or piece of chocolate.
But she doesn’t crave them anymore.
Because her body feels too good without them.
She finally sees herself as capable.
“At first, I wasn’t sure I’d ever look like the women in the RNT transformations. I was scared the workouts would be too intense, or that I’d feel too restricted. But it wasn’t like that at all.”
“This Was One Of The Best Things I’ve Ever Done”
With everything she’s achieved physically, mentally, and emotionally, she knows it was one of the most valuable investments she’s ever made.
“It was worth the time, the money, the effort. 100%. It’s the best thing I’ve done for my own self-care and my family.”
She didn’t just lose weight.
She gained clarity, confidence, strength, and the ability to handle anything life throws her way.
If you’re stuck in the same cycle Arpna was in, snacking out of habit, feeling drained, stretched thin, and unsure if you’re capable of change…
