L.E.A.N Lifestyle story

“I Am More Confident With My Body”
Why did you take part in the L.E.A.N Lifestyle programme?
I took part in the programme to support my husband while considering, it could also benefit me. I felt I needed to drop a few pounds and could lose some weight in the journey along with him.
The appeal was being able to eat “normal” foods and not having to purchase specific specialist costly products. Years of yo-yo dieting and more recently, more weight gain! Fed up with my increasing clothes sizes – yet refusing to get rid of clothing, I could no longer fit into; convincing myself, I’ll wear them again! I had seen Ken Barnes’ post on Facebook about the low carb high fat diet. When I read the results people were getting, I thought I would give it a try.
How was the experience?
I had done a low carb diet before so knew what to expect with the results. However, I really enjoyed and benefited from doing it, with a group of like-minded people. The group energy and the support from Ken, really helped to keep me focused and hold me accountable.
What did you gain from participating in the L.E.A.N Lifestyle programme?
The LEAN Keto programme experience really encouraged me to change my mindset around how I viewed food and what I ate. I also lost weight during the process, losing 11lbs which brought me down from 10st 7lbs to 9st 10lbs. I feel like I have more energy and I am more confident with my body.
I am enjoying the feedback from family and friends, on how my body has changed. I continue to be carb aware and will stay on this low carb high fat eating journey, because my mind is now set and I am able to commit to a low carb high fat lifestyle.
