Charity started her weight-loss journey with the Couch to 5K running app. Initially, she only ran for exercise but explained that the app gave her structure, and eventually her fitness routine "blossomed into a full love for working out, lifting heavy, and keeping my body in shape."
To date, Charity has lost 40 kilograms over the span of four years. "This includes lots of learning, ups and downs, plateaus, and finding peace with where I'm at in this journey," she said.
Charity also found planning her workouts out in advance were key to her weight loss. "I bought guides, I used apps, and I looked things up on YouTube. I never went into the gym just making up what I was going to do that day." Her advice for people getting into a workout routine: "You have to put in the legwork for something you want. If you want something big, you start doing the legwork to get you there."
