Working for me!
By: Andy
During 2009, after an infection in late 2008, I was diagnosed with CFS/ME. My weight before infection was from 14 stone to 14stone 7lb. The depression associated with stopping working for the first time in my adult life meant I ended up on anti depressants. I ballooned in weight, up to between 18-19 stone. By 2012, I got back to work and then finally got a diagnoses of Sleep Apnea. This was never tested for as when I fell ill I was in a healthy weight range. Using a CPAP machine allowed me to function and keep working, great news. Sadly my weight stayed the same, through many Gym memberships and behaving myself eating, the best weight I got to was 17 stone, but it would soon bounce back up. I weaned off my Anti Depressants in 2019 and I'm going to be 50 in 2022. I wanted to make a plan to get back to my correct weight. So in April 2021 I decided I better start because it could take 12-18 months to achieve that goal. No Gym memberships, just a yoga mat for stretching and a healthy diet. I started to eat healthy and added vitamin supplements. I found Dr. Berg on Youtube about two weeks in, and the explanation about Blood Sugar and Insulin levels stopping body fat burning clicked with me. I was still drinking fruit juices and eating plenty fruit. I then started healthy Keto with a 16/8 fasting routine, and the magic started to happen. I am now down to 16 stone in less than 8 weeks. I have been OMAD about a dozen days recently when I don't feel hungry. There was around 2 weeks at the beginning I felt a bit irritable but that has improved and I would now say my mood is vastly better than before starting. I feel like I am ahead of my target, which is great. I will get to my 14 stone and then start to do more cardio to help build up overall fitness. It will also allow more calories to be consumed without weight gain. Thank you Dr. Berg, your videos have helped so much. I would still be consuming to much sugar and wondering why I wasn't being successful in my weight loss if it wasn't for your excellent explanations. Best Regards, Andy in Scotland
