Melissa and Andrew Parnis Before and After Hitfit.

Watch how Andrew and Melissa Parnis lost a staggering 170 kg between them.

At his heaviest, Andrew weighed over 210 kg and now weighs just 120 kg, losing an incredible 90 kg. Melissa also shed 90 kg, having once weighed over 150 kg.

The pair took up boxing at Hitfit three years ago and have never looked back, driven by the motivation of their children they train morning and night.

"Three years ago, we took the kids to an amusement park and I couldn’t go on the rides with them. We’re making up for it now!"

The key to their success? A combination of healthy eating, hard work, and discipline.

“Having each other to push through on the tough days when motivation was low really helped,” says Hitfit CEO Darcy Ellis.

Today, Andrew and Melissa are more active with their children and fully engaged in family life.

When asked what message Andrew has for others on a weight loss journey, Andrew said:
“You won’t know unless you give it a go!”
