Weight loss spells a new lease of life for Davie
Nutrition Team Davie had half-heartedly followed diets before, but he could never quite muster up enough motivation to achieve any long term weight loss. Eventually he decided to join the online Gi diet plan after a gentle prod from his partner. He lost over 3 stone, and changed his life in the process!
Here he tells us his story…
What made you decide to join the Gi plan?
I knew I had to do something, I was slowly killing myself!
Was your weight causing you any problems?
I couldn’t walk without breaking into a sweat or having palpitations. I really struggled to get into a 42 inch waist trousers and I knew I couldn’t go on like that.
Tell us about your diet before you registered?
I snacked between meals and I didn’t eat proper meals during the day. I drank a couple of whiskey's every night and started to think that I could not do without it-shows how wrong I was! I eat lots of fruit and vegetables now and I enjoy actually tasting my food, instead of wolfing it down. I appreciate it as fuel to help my body run better.
What did you think of the overall service?
I liked not having to think about what to eat, as the meal plan did it all for me. The support and feedback that I received when I submitted comments was very supportive and encouraging.
Did exercise play any part in helping you to lose weight?
It played a major part! This is the first diet that I have incorporated exercise with, as I knew that was the best way to succeed and I have rediscovered my love of hill walking. I was enjoying the diet but exercise completed the package!
What has losing weight meant for you?
I feel more energetic and have a spring in my step. I also feel that my level of confidence has soared. Buying clothes that fit feels great. It may sound like a cliché but I have a new lease for life. I can’t believe how easy following this diet has been and how my attitude has changed. I wish I started the diet 10 years ago.
