Le Hong Minh was at a crossroads of his life. If he continued with a passive routine focused on long hours of work, he realized his health could only get worse. He knew he had to change. Working out and changing his eating habits required a major adjustment. What made the difference for him? How did he make it happen? It’s all about perspective.

Kenneth Atkinson is a living symbol of a dream come true, the expat dream, that is! He arrived in Hong Kong some 30 years ago from England and spent 10 years there before he established his permanent home in Vietnam. He has lived and worked here for more than 20 years while successfully building and expanding the Vietnam Grant Thornton office to employ more than 100 individuals in both Hanoi and HCMC.  Kenneth Atkinson is well-known in expatriates business and social circle.

At 50 years old Mr Khau Van Si had high blood pressure, was overweight and lacked energy. To ensure that he could meet his life expectations he made the commitment and got fit. 

Before becoming a member at California Fitness & Yoga Centers, my weight was the most it’s ever been, about 176 lbs. (80 kg). When I joined CFYC in February 2011, I thought, like so many others, that I could lose the weight I wanted to by myself, by exercising and eating right.  I started off exercising intensively, but my balloon of enthusiasm rapidly began to deflate over time.

A moment of truth can come from a surprising source.  Although Sebastiaan Weyler was aware that he had gained weight over the past few years, he hadn’t realized that his energy, his confidence and his happiness had suffered. He has a very special person to thank for the inspiration to win the Body Transformation Challenge 1-2012 - his seven-year-old daughter.

I want to lose weight, have a fitter body and being better health. 

I was not confident in my body, which led me to lack confidence in social interaction  and even in my work. My blood pressure was low, I usually felt dizzy, tired and analert. I spent several hours in front of computer and TV. I consumed a lot foods that were high in sugar and fat, and I hardly moved.

In the past I tried dieting products with no permanent result and so I felt I failed myself.

I was ashamed of myself with the way I looked and the way people looked at me. I was tired of having to suck in my gut when at the pool or beach to try to make myself look thinner when everybody else around me had great figure & looked good.
