Sam has paid a personal price for her inability to control her weight. Not only has the lonely beauty found it impossible to find Mr Right, she’s also recently found that her employer – a gym for women – no longer wants her back. Apparently, Sam is perceived to be a bad example for the customers!

The problem began when she was a child and turned to food for comfort. It was a trend that continued throughout her life and led to the ultimate Catch 22 as loneliness fuelled the depression, and in turn, the depression led to more binge eating. At age 37, this attractive and lovely single is desperate to stop the rut, find a loving partner and begin a family, before it’s too late.

After seeing the amazing transformations that last year’s contestants experienced, Sam is ready to take the same dramatic steps and become another successful graduate of Australia’s toughest weight loss programme.
