Taras improves his health with the Diabetes plan
Receiving a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes was a massive blow to Taras. He had a family that depended on him and the last thing they needed was a father and husband in poor health. There is little doubt that Taras’s health problems were exacerbated by his weight and diet. Losing about 1/3 of his weight was actually enough to delay and hopefully prevent the need for Taras to receive medication for his illnesses.
Taras tells an inspirinig story…
How much weight did you lose?
When I started the diet I was 21 stone 3 lbs and now I am 14 stone 13 lbs. My clothes size was XX Large and now it is Medium.
What made you decide to join the diet plan?
Your diet was suggested to me by a nurse at my doctors. At that point my blood pressure and cholesterol were also very high. And my heart rate was irregular. The doctor was going to put me on tablets, but because of the weight loss I achieved, I never needed to take them.
Were you experiencing any problems before losing the weight?
Not only were there problems with clothing but I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes also. I was very unhappy at my large size and my confidence was taking quite a bashing.
Can you tell us about how your diet has changed as a result of following the online weight loss programme?
I eat cereals every day I have cut out many fatty, sugary and high salt foods.
How do you feel about your weight loss?
I feel better and more confident in myself. I have gotten lots of nice comments about my appearance.
Are you confident that you can maintain the weight loss?
I believe that I can continue to maintain my weight loss, not only because it makes me feel better, but it also means that I can continue to be fit and healthy as I care for my severely disabled wife. I couldn’t continue in this way without your support and help.
