How Penny Lost 12kg While Living Out of Hotel Rooms and Working a Demanding Exec Role
Let’s talk about Penny — one of our incredible clients who, despite working in a high-pressure general management role that had her flying across states weekly, managed to drop 12kg, transform her body composition, and build habits she’ll carry for life.
This isn’t your typical “I had time to train every day and prep perfect meals” story. Penny’s reality looked more like red-eye flights, food court meals, inconsistent sleep, and hotels as her second home.
So how did she do it?
The DVP F.I.T Method.
(A verified trademarked method!)
At DVP, we don’t hand out cookie-cutter meal plans and hope for the best. We focus on real women, living real lives, with real obstacles — and we design coaching around that.
Here’s how we helped Penny go from exhausted and frustrated… to thriving, lean, and strong:
1. Fuel Phase: Nourishing Her Body, Not Punishing It
When Penny came to us, she’d been stuck in a cycle of super low-calorie diets and was constantly running on empty. Sound familiar?
We took a completely different approach:
No more 1,200 calorie “quick fixes.”
We calculated her actual metabolic needs and built her a high-quality, nutrient-dense meal plan — even factoring in food court and hotel options.
We focused on whole foods, easy swaps, and practical choices, even with limited access to a kitchen.
The result? Penny lost weight in this phase — not gained — because her body finally felt safe, supported, and properly fueled.
2. Ignite Phase: Building Metabolic Resilience
With the foundation laid, we moved to reverse her calories carefully — giving her body what it truly needed to perform, recover, and build lean mass.
We increased complex carbs strategically — a woman’s key energy source, especially when stress and travel are high.
Penny noticed more energy, fewer cravings, and better digestion — all while her body composition continued to shift.
This phase wasn’t just about fat loss — it was about rebuilding her metabolic engine for long-term success.
3. Transform Phase: Structured Training + Sustainable Success
Once her body was firing on all cylinders, we introduced structured strength training, designed around her schedule.
Short, efficient workouts she could do in hotel gyms or at home
A focus on progressive overload to build lean muscle
Weekly check-ins and adjustments based on travel and workload
The fat dropped, the definition came through, and Penny started feeling stronger than she had in years.
4. Maintenance: Her New Normal
By the time Penny hit her goal weight, she wasn’t starving, overtraining, or relying on willpower.
She was maintaining her results with confidence, eating more than she had in years, and finally seeing food as fuel — not the enemy.
She now has:
✅ A strong, nourished body
✅ A flexible lifestyle that works with her travel demands
✅ A deep understanding of how to fuel her unique metabolism — for life
Penny’s story is proof that you don’t need a perfect schedule or home-cooked meals every day to transform your body.
You need the right strategy, a personalised plan, and ongoing support from coaches who get it.
That’s what the DVP F.I.T Method delivers.
