Viki Ellis
"I’ve gone from being overweight and almost having my leg amputated to having abs, doing pull ups and running around with full confidence in my body."
Viki started with The One Percent Club following an accident in which she almost lost her leg! She started to try and rehab herself and lose the weight she put on around her stomach but didn’t have a plan or really know the best thing to do with it to achieve her goals.
We had a few challenges along the way with stress from work sometimes getting the better of her, leading back to old habits of using food as a coping mechanism or making poor food choices when exhausted from work but as you can clearly see, we got there in the end.
Viki’s new physique is a representation of all the hard work and changes she made to her lifestyle over the last 15 months as well as a concentrated effort on rebuilding up the strength and confidence in her leg as we simultaneously reduced body fat.
She can now perform pull ups and press-ups like a pro and feels confident enough to wear cropped gym tops for the first time ever as well as go for a run without worrying about her leg.
