Magda’s journey: I can’t wait to be back at my best!

Our favourite TV star Magda Szubanski is vowing to pick herself up and lose weight again. She takes us on her personal journey

Magda Szubanski smiles wistfully as she reminisces about the day she truly embraced her healthy self after losing an incredible 36kg. “I was up at Cape Leveque [in Broome, WA] with friends, camping under an extraordinary full moon that lit the beach up like the MCG lights,” she says.

“It was so incredible. We all spontaneously ran down the dunes and started playing soccer on the beach.

“I remember being so light-footed on the sand – running, dodging and weaving and giving as good as I got. When I think about the level of fitness I had, how great it felt… and how I lost it, let it all go, I feel incredibly sad.”

Magda put on even more than she lost, topping the scales at 126kg last year – but now she’s fighting back, having already lost 8kg since January 3. And she wants to lose another 20kg – but this time there are no deadlines or pressure.
