Impact story

Melita is 14 years old and used to be a strong-minded teen. However, she started to struggle with her growing body weight and postponed any efforts to initiate change. She entered the program with a BMI over 30, which is equivalent to class I obesity. Entering the program Melita seemed happy, but she struggled with physical activity and sugar abstinence. Nevertheless, she showed a very high discipline and motivation. At the end of the program, Melita reduced her BMI and felt happy and comfortable to eat any food that make her feel energetic, full and pretty.
