Congratulations to our 2022 New Year 8 Week #1uptransformationchallenge Female 1st place $10,000 cash prize winner Unica Minakuchi @1up_unica
This is her story
“ Since childhood, I learned that living with an abnormality, regardless of whether it is mental or physical, can be very challenging. I was diagnosed with scoliosis when I was in 5th grade. I feared that I may not be able to fit with my peers. This fear was the result of the constant bullying and labeling that I was exposed to as a child. Because of my condition, I decided to face the threat. It reached a point where I lost a significant level of personal growth and wellness psychologically. Also, Stress was a big factor of my unhealthy lifestyle. Being a nurse handling Covid patients put me in so much trauma. I’ve been trying to be healthy and look better but I didn’t know how to start. I’m glad I came across the 1UP transformation challenge. The FB group members are so supportive, encouraging, motivating & very informative. I tried different weight loss strategies, but all gave me negative results in the end. I was so determined to change my life. For me, the hardest part of the challenge was the 1st week. When I’m not working, I had to wake up early before my son and before my 16hr shift. However, giving up was not an option. I sticked to my routine, while reading 1up blogs and motivational messages, followed my macros, supplementation, different kinds of accountabilities like engaging to 1up group and asked a lot of questions.”
My success was going at a slower rate, and I almost gave up. In my 2nd week, my body looked similar, this was about to convince me that fitness is an illusion. However, on my third week, I saw some changes, and this kept me moving and sticking to the exercise routine. Basically, it is not an easy journey and I would advise any one undergoing through the same to gather consistency, belief in change and give the body time to form. I would like to encourage everyone to join 1up transformation challenge! My life has changed for the BETTER. Thank you so much 1up family!”
