My story begins in 2019 after my cardiologist ordered that, as a last chance to live, I had to lose weight immediately. After the first appointment with my Consultant, Maria, and after strict advice from The 1:1 Diet doctor, I started my journey. I weighed 153kg when I started and, within a year, I had already shed 46kg but, after some setbacks at work, I would start, stop, and start over.

Finally, last year I reached an amazing 76kg loss, and entered The 1:1 Diet's Slimmer of the Year competition, where I finished in the top three finalists, having had an amazing experience.

Since then, with necessary daily self-checking and weekly weighing and measuring by Maria, I have not only managed to maintain my weight loss, but managed to shed an additional 4kg, reaching the fantastic result of 80kg lost! My even bigger and most important achievement is that after tests with a team of cardiologists, they decided to stop any medication that I had been on for 18 years!

A big thank you to everyone: doctors, my family and my Consultant. Now I have learned to eat properly! You should never give up, and it's never too late to start, for those of you still considering the journey of a lifetime with The 1:1 Diet!
