Offaly Teacher Set For Operation Transformation Final

Wednesday, 26 February 2020 17:35

Shane Farrell will join his fellow leaders on the red carpet to celebrate their achievement.

An Offaly teacher will step on the scales tonight for the final time in this year's Operation Transformation.

Shane Farrell will join his fellow leaders on the red carpet to celebrate their achievement and find out their final weight loss from eight weeks of food plans, workouts and pounding pavements to reach their goals.

Presenter Kathryn Thomas commented ahead of the finale, “On the finale show, we’ll see what eight weeks of commitment, determination and sheer hard work looks like.

Over the last two months, we've followed five extraordinary people on their journey towards better health. They’ve welcomed us into their homes and their work spaces. And it’s been our privilege to watch them bravely reveal every aspect of themselves in the hope of transforming not only their own lives but the lives of the many thousands of people who've followed them throughout the series. I couldn’t be prouder of each and every one of them.”
