🔥 Happy Birthday dear Mavishna who went from 61kgs >> 54kgs… And looking lean and gorgeous ❤️

“Before joining the “Transform” program, I was struggling with weight gain largely due to emotional and stress-related eating.
Additionally, I had severe gastric issues, but the doctor just gave me medicines & told me to avoid tea…. but no real solution to resolve the issue!

Despite exercising daily, my progress was very slow (by myself). My clothes didn’t fit, and I felt uncomfortable in my own skin. 😞

I tried cutting carbs and fats and reducing portion sizes but I’d get severe hunger pangs… what worked for me 5 yrs ago just wasn’t working anymore.

My cousin’s upcoming wedding in Mauritius was a big motivating goal for me. I really wanted to wear fabulous outfits, look toned and feel confident in them.

I was hesitant about starting another program, wondering if it would be worth the investment, but after an encouraging conversation with Coach Arpita, I decided to take the plunge >> https://bit.ly/MindandBodyPT

From day one, Coach Arpita struck the ideal balance between kindness and firmness, guiding me through necessary adjustments in my eating and exercise routines.

The first week was challenging, but her daily feedback on my meals and exercise helped me quickly adapt to a new, healthier routine.

Soon, I found myself cooking more meals at home, conscious of my choices when eating out, feeling my body get stronger, and noticing a shift in my approach to exercise—it became something I looked forward to, whether it was a walk or gentle yoga, as my body began to crave movement.

The results have been transformative.

❤️ I lost weight that had previously felt impossible to shed, and my confidence soared as I felt comfortable in my skin once more.

I’ve gone from 61kgs to 54kgs (this is more than my original goal 😃)

✅ All my clothes fit again, my energy and sleep have improved, and I now have a renewed sense of well-being.

My gastric issue is fine now due to the “3 Food Rules”, no medications needed. 😮

Beyond the physical changes, I’ve gained invaluable insights that will help me maintain these habits for life. I’ve learned how to both, shed excess weight and sustain my ideal weight, with foundational habits that continue to guide me toward my goals.

Arpita’s “Transform” program is something I’d recommend to anyone feeling stuck in their own health, gastric or weight loss journey.

The photos and testimonials of other “Transformettes” inspired me and that’s why I’m now sharing my journey to inspire others.

If you’re struggling on your own and wondering if it’s worth it, take the leap—I am so grateful for the confidence and well-being this has brought me… and yes I’ll be wearing crop top cholis at my cousin’s wedding in 2 weeks 😃”

⭐️ Happy Birthday dear Ganishka who lost 14kgs on Transform ⭐️

“We spend so much time taking care of others, our children, parents, spouses, pets.. We sometimes forget ourselves. This was me too, until I joined Transform (and the reason for joining, I decided to take care of myself).

I’ve been following Arpita on Mind and Body Personal Training for 4 years. I tried one of her shorter programs years ago. Since then, I’ve wanted to do the “Transform” program.

After having tried all sorts of fad diets over the years, I wanted to change the way I looked at food and weight loss. I didn’t want to go on a diet because if you go on a diet you come off it too.

💪 And thats exactly what the Transform program isn’t. It is NOT a diet, it’s a course that you follow to change and adopt healthy lifestyle. And Arpita’s approach is just unique, as she provides you with the right tools.

Many of us know a lot about dieting & nutrition already. After all there is so much information out there.
But which one is right or wrong?
What suits your lifestyle, your body type, your personal circumstances? 🙄

This is where Arpita’s personalized approach comes in handy. With “Transform” there are no meal plans nor do you get a coach who will spoon feed you. ‘’Most of the work is done by you, so the more you put in, the more you achieve’’ (Arpita’s words)

Arpita provides you with so much personal support during the program, correcting what you should, and shouldn’t eat, how much of which foods, guide with your water intake, movement, exercise techniques ,mental wellbeing and more.

I love how soon after I started the program, my goal of weight loss soon shifted. My focus was more on eating healthier, meeting the “3 food rules”, finishing my daily tasks and achieving my exercise points.

❤️ I started feeling so much better in my skin & more confident. Of course, it wasn’t long before I was losing weight, my clothes (& belt) were so loose & I was sleeping better, feeling more energetic and happier.

💤 I used to wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to fall sleep again. After a month with Arpita, it's 7-8 hours of sleep…..feeling refreshed.

The part I enjoyed the most about Transform is the community spirit that you get from the exclusive client group. It was nice to know that I wasn’t alone on this journey, there were others like me.
I met some very inspiring women who I have total admiration for (women who have gone through life threatening illnesses and yet they were there trying their best to make their lives better.)
I enjoyed sharing a gratitude post every day & participating in the different bonus competitions (I won prizes for 2 of them)

Because “Transform” isn’t a diet, I know that I have invested in my health and I will keep the good habits for life. I did this program in the middle of a relocation from Mauritius to Canada 🇨🇦

🙌 I have regained my confidence, I like what I see in the mirror after losing 14kgs!! When I don't move enough or drink enough water, my body finds ways to tell me.
The biggest achievement is now knowing when my body doesn't like what I eat - I'm able to recognize the signs..
Thank you Arpita for making weight loss simple.”

Mauritius… you’ve done it again. 🇲🇺❤️

I opened the insights on one of my recent client transformation posts and had to look twice!! 😳

479,500 views.
349,377 of them from Mauritius. 🇲🇺

There’s a reason Mauritius has always been so special. I lived there. I started online coaching in Mauritius in 2017. Over the years, I’ve coached hundreds of Mauritian women and men, and some of the most extraordinary transformations I’ve ever witnessed have come from this tiny island.

I genuinely LOVE working with Mauritians. There’s a humility, warmth and respectfulness that I have always appreciated, but equally, when my Mauritian clients decide they are ready to change their lives, they WORK. 😂💪

And my relationship with Mauritius goes far beyond my business. I’ve lived there. I have built life long friendships that are incredibly dear to me.

Even my little Georgette is a Mauritian rescue. 🐶🇲🇺

And although I now live in Australia and continue coaching online, Mauritius will always feel like another home to me, and I fully intend to keep coming back.

Perhaps that’s also why my message resonates there. I understand the culture, the food, the families, the social occasions and some of the very real challenges involved in trying to change your lifestyle when everyone around you is happily telling you to “manzé, manzé!” 😂

So to the nearly half a million views on this one post alone - thank you. 🙏

And if you’re sitting in Mauritius watching transformation after transformation on my page and wondering whether you could be next…

Yes! Why not?. 🇲🇺💪

Send me MAURITIUS privately and let’s talk.

Welcome to Week 3 of your Mindfulness Challenge!

How well you sleep tonight has a huge influence on how you feel tomorrow.

Your energy, mood, concentration,food choices…
Even your ability to cope with stress.

🫣 Yet so many women expect our brains to go from 100 km/hr to asleep the moment our head hits the pillow. If you've ever struggled to fall asleep or found your mind racing with tomorrow's to-do list, you're certainly not alone.

As a certified Sleep, Stress Management & Recovery Specialist, I often remind my clients that sleep doesn't begin when you get into bed - it begins with what you do in the hour beforehand.

Just as children thrive on a bedtime routine, our adult brains also benefit from predictable cues that signal it's time to wind down. A consistent evening ritual encourages your body to produce melatonin naturally and prepares both your mind and body for restful sleep.

This week's challenge is simple:

Create a bedtime routine that you can realistically follow most nights.
For example:
• Dim the lights.
• Put your phone away.
• Take a warm shower.
• Read a few pages of a book.
• Spend a few minutes doing gentle stretches or breathwork like you learnt last week.

The key isn't creating the "perfect" routine - it's creating one you'll actually stick to.

One of the biggest changes you can make is reducing screen time before bed. Phones, tablets and televisions expose us to bright light and stimulating content that can delay melatonin release and make it harder to fall asleep. Aim to switch off screens at least one hour before bed - two hours is even better if you can.

📖 Your task: Head to your workbook, read Challenge #3, and write down your bedtime routine. Then post it below

Want to take your sleep to the next level?

If sleep has been something you've struggled with for years, my 10 Days to Better Sleep programme dives much deeper into the science of sleep, circadian rhythms, hormones, stress management and practical strategies to help you fall asleep faster and wake feeling refreshed.

The next round begins on 1 January, and I'd love to have you join us.

Until next week...

Protect your evenings, and your mornings will thank you

If you researched the side effects of weightloss drugs... you'd never swallow it.
And if you knew the side effects of not building muscle and bone strength... you'd have no hesitation doing the "work"
