Before and after
David started to gain weight after he quit smoking. He realized that he had to make a lifestyle change, having three young children and another one on the way. This is what happened when he discovered the LCHF diet:
The E-mail
Hey thought I’d share my story since the stories that you guys post is what really motivated me to continue this journey I went on.
I was in the army for 5 years and got out in 2009. While I was in ok shape back then, I still knew I wasn’t in the best shape I could be. This past year I finally quit smoking and was feeling great. But in doing so I started to put on some pounds and hit an all time high for me of 240 pounds (109 kg) and over 30% body fat. With three younger kids and another one on the way I knew I had to start a big lifestyle change. This started with working out more and eating smaller portions. While this did work I felt that I was struggling a lot with little reward.
After doing some research I discovered the LCHF diet which lead me to dietdoctor.com. I read the posts and the success stories. However, I was still skeptical, mostly due to the fact that this wasn’t my first rodeo when it came to diets. I’ve been burned in the past and I wanted to do it right and healthy this time. This lead me into ketosis and how the fat can be used for fuel in the body. I took the 2-week challenge and continued on.
I ended up losing 50 pounds (23 kg) and got down to 16% body fat. I feel healthier and have more energy.I took the 2-week challenge and continued on.This is a great way to live and I’m glad that I was able to learn so much about my own body while on this journey.
Thanks for the life saving tips!!
