- Marica Korolija said she is returning to a healthier routine after a period of overindulging in food.
- Nutritionist Martina Linarić will support her diet, while Marica plans to train independently and resume psychotherapy.
- She said she would share both successes and setbacks with her followers.
Marica Korolija, a former contestant on Croatia’s “Život na vagi,” says she is turning the page and focusing again on her physical and mental health. She announced the new transformation on Instagram alongside photographs showing her change from her time on the show to the present.
“Today is finally the day. The day I officially begin my transformation and get back on the right track,” Marica wrote. She acknowledged that she had recently indulged too much in food and said she wanted to eat in a healthier, more balanced way and with greater respect for her body.
Today is finally the day. The day I officially begin my transformation and get back on the right track.
She will receive nutritional support from Martina Linarić, who also worked with her during the show. Marica described Linarić as more than an expert, calling her a true friend whose meal plans and advice she would recommend to anyone. Recalling Linarić’s familiar advice, she joked: “As a serious sweet addict, her most famous sentence was always: ‘Have an apple.’ I have to admit, sometimes I wanted to throw that apple at her. But after a long time, I finally understand her.”

Marica said she will currently train on her own because she has not found someone who fits her schedule and finances. She plans to listen to her body, exercise sensibly and focus on injury prevention. She also announced that she will return to psychotherapy after taking time to recharge, saying she now feels ready to continue working on herself from the inside.
Followers responded with strong support, and Linarić added her own brief message: “Now give it your all, and always keep an apple somewhere nearby.” Marica promised to document every step, including both successes and failures.
Now give it your all, and always keep an apple somewhere nearby.
