Melissa: 106 kg in 3 years
1. Overweight appeared in my childhood - I have always been plump. It is quite logical that it was hard for me at school, I especially remember physical education lessons - they were a real test. Although in general I got used to the fact that I did not enjoy much success, but graduation in the 9th grade finally finished me off. I have never felt such loneliness! My classmates did not come up to me, and when I walked in their direction, they quickly went to the other. After several attempts, I realized that all this is not just. It was at that moment that she decided to lose weight, and also began to read books on psychology.
Perhaps you need to briefly tell what happened next. I came to the 10th grade a little different and by the end of the 11th I was already a cheerful and sociable Tanya, with whom, despite her extra weight, everyone was friends.
Outwardly, I have not changed very much, but internally I have noticeably changed. All this did not happen immediately, gradually, but from a downtrodden fat clumsy girl I became popular. And all because I realized - this is no longer possible, I can no longer be in a state of suffering and complaints to the whole world. By the way, I am still friends with those classmates. Once I even discussed this situation with one of them at graduation: she didn’t even know that I remember all this, that I was so offended. She said that then I was somehow not very interesting, stuffy, so it happened. Of course, it was not very beautiful, but who is not mistaken, after all, we were children.
I have always been overweight and, in general, before it became critical (more than 100 kg), I lived almost normally, and then shortness of breath appeared, it became difficult to climb even to the 4th floor at school, and all this greatly reduced the quality of life. Were those around you sympathetic to this? No.
2. Usually they insulted me rather than made neat remarks that I needed to lose weight - it really was very hard.
It took me three and a half years to lose weight. I have tried many things, probably the most stupid way is to boil some terribly tasteless celery soup with tomatoes, peppers and something else, eat it for several days in the hope of losing 8 kg in a week.
This attempt ended with the fact that on the third or fourth day I could not get out of bed and go to work. I was 17 years old, I worked full time and studied at the university in the evening department, that is, I needed strength for such a schedule, and I ate this soup and allegedly “lost weight”. When I was on diets, I broke down very often; when I realized that a diet for a while is nonsense, I began to look at the whole thing differently.
3. Now I don’t lose my temper, but I just competently enter my favorite ones into my diet and, maybe, not so much healthy foods: for example, I ate something sweet at breakfast in the morning, which means that there will be a little less carbohydrates for lunch. Something like that. In general, everything starts from the head, you need to rebuild your attitude to the figure, nutrition, lifestyle.
Competent balanced nutrition in combination with sports gives, perhaps, not the most quick result, but high-quality and one that really hold! There are diets, for example, protein ones, that give big changes for short term but this is all temporary. Therefore, as they say, you go quieter - you will continue. So I developed a menu for myself and now I teach other people to do the same. Sports were periodically, if possible.
I am very satisfied with my results. I used to be fat and insecure. It was terribly unpleasant for me to look at myself, because I was fatter than everyone in my school! It was hard to find myself nice clothes, I had to wear something that fits at least in size, and this was age clothes.
4. Every day I was humiliated, and I wanted only one thing - to break out of this vicious circle.
Most of the problems - well, as it seemed to me - were connected with excess weight, so I decided to lose weight, although it was not easy, I made many mistakes, but I managed to change myself first internally, and then externally.
How to maintain weight
5. In the middle of the weight loss process, my main goal was to maintain weight, which, by the way, has been working out for more than four years! This is even more difficult than getting rid of extra pounds, since many can get together for a while and set some limits for themselves, but few people are ready to stick to the regime all their lives.
6. I achieve all this with an active lifestyle and proper nutrition. I eat almost everything - even pasta, for example, but only if they are made from whole grain flour. Almost every harmful product can be found useful replacement, most importantly, include imagination - this is what makes it possible to eat varied, tasty and healthy.
7. This lifestyle, training in the gym or at home, biking, rollerblading, long walks and swimming - all this is great, you need to find what gives you pleasure, and then it will not be torture. In principle, eating right, you can maintain weight, but sports help the figure to acquire the correct shape. Of course, if I start eating everything again, I will gain weight. Weight loss is simple math: eat more than normal - you gain, eat less - you lose.
8. Now I help others change their lives and I am happy that I can share my experience. I managed not only to solve the problem of excess weight, but also to become a successful blogger, I wrote a book, created my own online course, visited many TV shows, and many of my articles were published in magazines. Sometimes I look back and I can't even believe it's all real. Obviously, I would not have believed it when I weighed more than 100 kg, which is generally possible!
Tatiana Rybakova(23)
At fourteen, I weighed 105 kilograms. This is not what you wish for an enemy, and even more so for a notorious teenager. I was on the verge of despair: it was unpleasant for me to look at my reflection, it was impossible to find suitable modern clothes, school life was a series of humiliations. Having reached the boiling point, I decided to lose weight!

How I got hot
carried away large quantity all kinds of diets, I tried the most popular. Either she sat on kefir and apples, then she ate only vegetables. The effect of the diets was short-lived: as soon as I started eating as usual, the lost returned. Over time, I realized: you need to learn how to combine products and complement proper nutrition a suitable set of exercises: in this case, the changes will be visible not only on the scales, but also on the general physical level, as well as on the complexion, the condition of the hair and nails.
I graduated from school having lost 20 kg: they left along with how I mastered an active lifestyle and changed my nutrition system. After school, she entered the university for evening classes and seriously sat down to study the properties of products and the arguments of doctors. So I came to my current diet: it is very similar to separate, and, by the way, I did not pay much attention to the glycemic index. Nevertheless, I had to forget about sugar and flour. I also did cardio. By the age of eighteen, I already weighed 65 kg, and now my weight (the nutrition and training system has remained the same) has been 51 kg for three years.
My life's work
Once on a women's site I saw a competition for best story weight loss. I definitely considered my story and consider it the best: the judges considered it the same. I won the prize fund, but it turned out to be just a nice bonus compared to the main gift from fate. My experience turned out to be of interest to many: they began to add me as a friend on social networks, ask for help, ask questions. The hype around me made me realize that the best thing I know about is losing weight - after all, I have been doing this for almost my entire conscious life.
I did not hesitate and created a website, a YouTube channel and a public page where I post photos, tips and answers to questions. In addition, I published a book, I am recording a podcast “We lose weight easily!” and conduct seminars. In other words, I started doing what I love. Helping people get leaner has taught me what it means to truly enjoy what you do.
About love
After school, I got a job as a merchandiser in a construction hypermarket, where I met Kirill. He was only a year older than me, a student who decided to earn extra money during the holidays. At that moment, I was already actively losing weight and weighed about 85 kg. I was 17, but it seemed to Cyril that I was ten years older: being overweight had grown me up. Nevertheless, Cyril never said that I needed to lose weight: he loved me for who I was. In all difficult situations, my beloved was there and supported. He thought I was beautiful at 80 plus and admires me now, 30 kilos later. I have every reason to believe that when it comes to love, the numbers on the scale don't matter.
Losing weight is quite simple, there are no secrets or miracles - proper nutrition and sports! But the most important thing in losing weight is motivation and attitude. Start with your head. Think about whether you are ready to spend time and energy on this process. More about the real story of Tatyana Rybakova's weight loss.
History of successful weight loss
Sasha Charikova(30)
top blogger
Height 171 cm and lack of slenderness in the "default" settings - that's me. And when my friends shared that they had 55 kg on the scales, I, of course, was horrified with them, but I was silent about my weight. What should I say? First 60 (university), then 70 (marriage), 80 (three years of office lifestyle and uncontrolled eating), 84 (beginning of pregnancy), 94 (weight on the eve of childbirth). I was thin for only four years of my conscious life - a happy transformation began in high school, when I began to turn into a girl, lost weight and stretched out, and ended when I spoiled hormonal background improperly selected oral contraceptives (following the advice of a friend, not a doctor).
Went to minus
At the hospital, I left the 10 kg gained during pregnancy, and this was a great start for subsequent victories over weight. And then: the law of women's solidarity. Thanks to my daughter, I had to follow a strict diet long enough not to harm her. I was absorbed in a new business - I have a child! - and I had no time to eat: I ate in fits and starts and in small portions. You have to walk with your child! - I walked for two hours at a brisk pace. And the weight went down. First five, then ten kg, then more.
Wonderful discoveries
When I discovered that all my clothes were hanging on me, my husband arranged for me to go shopping, and I was delighted to buy myself a size M. But what was my happiness when after a few months I began to fit into S!
Now I feel my body in a completely different way. It became physically easier for me to do a lot: both move and play sports. I started taking pictures!
I am closer to my ideal weight: now I have a game of holding and improving my shape. To help my body, which has lost a huge amount of mass, regain elasticity and smoothness, I began to practice yoga more.
Need a motive
To start losing weight seriously, you need a push: for some, this is a forced situation related to health (pregnancy and breastfeeding in my case), for some, it is a conscious decision that can and should be made, looking, for example, at your own Photo. Recently, I was flipping through my old photos and wondered: “Why didn’t anyone tell me?” They told me: “You are full!”, although it is obvious that harmony suits me much more! Yes, you can love me without perfect figure. But to motivate (since my eyes were closed, and I didn’t have enough strength and desire to open them) I was worth a long time ago.
1. Check your health and determine what caused the excess weight.
2. Based on point 1 and personal preferences, decide on a suitable power system. For example, try the blood type diet.
3. Make sports a good habit.
4. Control, fixing the results. Get rid of clothes that have become too big so that there is no temptation to wear them. Buy new things.
5. Take pictures of the results, discuss them with friends and in social networks.
6. Dream and visualize! Collect inspirational pictures, save links to clothes you would like to buy when you reach your ideal weight.
7. More fun together! Find lucky friends who will rejoice in your victories and support you when weight loss slows down.
Weight loss: before and after - story number 3
Marina Sergeeva(19)
student
The cult of food has always flourished in our family. It was necessary to eat so that there was the first, second, third and compote. And that's not to mention the holidays! On holidays, they crawled out from the table! It is logical - I have been plump since childhood.
I was lucky: in the class I was not the Most Important Bun, but still I was significantly more significant than most girls. I don’t remember anyone openly ridiculing me because of my weight, and I myself didn’t consider myself so terribly fat. However, a feeling of some inferiority was present (with a height of 167 cm, the scales then showed 67 kg). But besides the scales, there were other factors that prevented me from sleeping (that is, eating!) calmly: I saw that those around me condemned both my figure and my lifestyle. Honestly, it was for what! I was enrolled in gym, but there was not enough zeal to systematically engage in (why rush there - they don’t feed there!), I didn’t follow the diet and reached the peak of my “anti-form” by graduation class: At that time, I got into the habit of overeating on fast food at least a couple of times a week.
Path to gold
Exams loomed ahead, followed by graduation. And one day something seemed to click in my head - after all, I had to receive gold medal! And this means walking along the red carpet in the center of the hall (why not the Oscar?) in full view of several hundred people. And how will the golden evening dress of my dreams look on me? That year I had something to do - of course, most of the time I was preparing for exams. But in parallel with tutors and electives, I began to visit the gym. Alas, it turned out that without nutrition control, no results can be achieved. And I developed a diet: it used to be that I could eat half a pack of mayonnaise a day with fried potatoes and pies. Now I have given up everything starchy, sweet, fatty and fried. It was hard, but against the backdrop of a high goal, enthusiasm and first results, I did not notice any difficulties. Graduation (Oh, golden dress! You were lucky with the hostess - you didn’t burst at the seams!) I met in amazing 56 kg for me. But I didn’t think to stop - the workouts became more intense, the nutrition was more correct, I lost a few more kilograms and brought my body into tone. I'm done with losing weight, the current weight, 52 kg, is ideal for me, but I like this work on myself and admiring glances after me!
Big secret for a small company
My weight loss experiment has had a huge impact in our single family, and my diet is no longer a diet, but a way of life and a new diet - I can't imagine ever going back to mayonnaise and french fries. My mother and sister were lucky - they walked along the paths I had trodden (both to the kitchen and to the gym) and also lost weight remarkably. But I will not hide - I was lucky too: thanks to the support group that shared my aspirations, I always have a pleasant company to go to sports and discuss fresh recipes.
Sanction your breakdowns: they will still be, so let them be legal! Allow yourself one day a week what you usually do not eat (for example, sweets), and on holidays, allow yourself everything! It is unlikely that you will be able to gain weight in one evening, but you will get pleasure until the next holiday.

Evgenia, 31 years old
After the second pregnancy and graduation breastfeeding I decided to take a close look at my figure. Worried the most big belly, stretch marks on the buttocks and cellulite. Special weight loss was not required, only to reduce the volume of the priests and abdomen. I began to work out at home with the child, using it as a load - I squatted with the baby in my arms, rocked the press with legs raised, did the bar.
This was not enough for real weight loss, so I began to look for more advanced material. Signed up for one of the online fitness courses. There were strict requirements, every day a report on classes and not a drop aside from the developed nutrition. It was hard, I wanted to cry, but I did not give up. For 12 weeks of training, I became more enduring, the volume of the protruding abdomen was halved, and the waist decreased by 6 cm. This is a feat!
Anastasia, 34 years old
After leaving the hospital, I urgently needed to lose weight - I weighed 89 kg, which, with my height of 159 cm, looked like a disaster. Since I was breastfeeding the child, it was impossible to severely restrict myself in nutrition, to lose weight dramatically. I started small - every day during the walk I walked 5 km. At the same time, she chose difficult routes - she climbed a mountain, climbed stairs, walked to the fifth floor on foot without an elevator.
After seven months, she finished breastfeeding, at that time she weighed 65 kg. There was still a little to win, I began to limit the calorie content of dishes. I refused mayonnaise, fatty, fried. In just three months of an impromptu calorie deficit diet of chicken breast and vegetables, I reached my ideal weight. It remains to maintain my hard-won 54 kg - I walk a lot, once a week I arrange fasting days.
Elizabeth, 21
I work as a model, so any deviation in weight in big side makes itself felt in the photo. There is one secret how to lose weight quickly. Before shooting for a lingerie catalog or going to the catwalk during the day, you need to starve. Drink only water and a green tea smoothie with a pinch of ginger. The result can be immediately seen in the photo - just a day of cleansing on such a diet significantly changes the body, swelling goes away, the stomach "deflates", the muscles become more prominent.
You can not resort to such a diet more than once a month. Once I was fasting for two days, and I felt very bad, I almost fainted. So fasting is useful, but for a limited time. I want to warn people with severe obesity from it - my doctor said that such fasting is forbidden to them. Young girls can afford it - try this recipe and write your own real story!
Tatyana, 30 years old
My real weight loss story with a photo can be called extreme. It was necessary to lose 5 kg in three days, but I could not believe that this was possible. I decided to try the first stage of the Dukan diet, when I had to eat one protein. You know it helped! For three days of eating only cottage cheese and chicken breast I dropped not even five, but six extra pounds, which is good news.
I’m not sure that you can continue to eat protein alone for more than three days, but the effect was amazing. I achieved the goal, and then I thought that it would be necessary to consolidate the result. I continued the second stage of the Dukan diet, included carbohydrates in the food diary, a little linseed oil and bran. At the third stage, I lost 10 kg out of the extra 13. Now I need to consolidate the losses, and then enjoy life and feel great.
Eleanor, 55 years old
At my age, it is no longer customary to lose weight, but I consider myself a young attractive woman, and therefore I strictly follow my figure. I don't complain about it, but I would like to reduce the volume of the hips from 48 to 46. Losing weight was not very easy - after menopause, metabolism slows down. I opted for a milk-restricted diet and a trendy Norwegian walking routine with poles on fresh air.
She gave up late dinners, began to walk more in the fresh air. Together with my friends, we learned the technology of walking with sticks, and every morning we started with a walk in the nearest park. This miraculously helped - in two months I became slimmer by exactly one size, excess swelling went away, my hips and abdominal muscles tightened up to normal. It's a pleasure to look at yourself in the mirror!
Daria, 29 years old
Due to hormonal failure, I gained a lot of weight, but could not achieve weight loss. I decided that I would remain fat, but I accidentally saw the contacts of a famous nutritionist on a website on the Internet. I made an appointment with her, gave a lot of money for the project, but in the end, after passing the tests and studying my problem, I received an action plan. There was a long and hard work ahead - first it was necessary to lose 20 kg with the help of a diet, then the remaining 10 - with sports activities.
It was hard to limit myself, but the moral support of a nutritionist helped. She calculated each snack and meal by gram, I bought products exactly according to her recommendations. For six months, 20 kg melted away, it was time to sign up for the gym. Another 4 months were spent on losing the remaining 10 kg. I am again slim girl, I look at my old photos and do not believe that I was like that.

Completely abandoned sausages and smoked meats.

For a year of proper nutrition, I lost 10 kg, I got energy, I almost do not get tired during the day, I feel better than when I was 20 years old. That's what only useful products mean.

Every day I take superfoods - these are foods that are especially rich in beneficial nutrients. Of these, goji berries, sea buckthorn, green buckwheat can be distinguished. My morning starts with a glass of warm water with honey on an empty stomach, half an hour later I have breakfast with oatmeal or natural unroasted granola. Lunch takes place in a cafe, and I have dinner with a glass of kefir with an apple. Simple and delicious!
Sofia, 34 years old
Due to health problems, I gained an extra 10 kg. It was also difficult to throw them off because I was constantly in the hospital and hardly moved. After leaving the hospital, I went to the doctor for help. He advised me to practice vegetarianism. I wanted to give up meat before, but I was afraid that I would have anemia from the lack of animal protein, my hair would fall out. The doctor said that this can be corrected by taking special vitamins.
My daily diet includes a lot of peas or beans, nuts, Adyghe cheese. I can’t completely give up dairy products and eggs yet, but I don’t eat meat and fish. In two months of such a diet, I managed to lose 8 kg, there are still two left, but they are the most difficult. Vegetarianism tempered the body, I noticed that digestion began to work better, I do not suffer from constipation, as before.
Ekaterina, 32 years old
Real weight loss stories with photos will never tell you the whole truth, and I will reveal the secret - to get desired effect it is important to work hard and hard. No biologically active additives and creams will help get rid of ridges at the waist or "ears" on the pope. You need to play sports often, give up the usual foods, replacing them with useful ones.
So I gave up everything harmful in favor of proper nutrition, and I do not regret it. I eat only protein-rich food, combine it with fiber in the form of vegetables and occasionally allow myself a small piece of cake. There are no sausages, chips, cookies in my diet, only bitter chocolate (a square a day) and honey are left of the sweets. With such a clean diet in a year, I lost 12 kg, my health improved significantly.
Ulyana, 35 years old
I tried many diets in my life until I realized that The best way For real weight loss, it is proper nutrition. Previously, she could eat her husband and children, constantly try food in the cooking process. So, without noticing it, I gained an extra 7 kg. I don’t like to do sports, so I tried to give up everything harmful that was in the diet.
To avoid temptations, she transferred the whole family to proper nutrition. At first, the husband resisted - he liked to eat tightly and drink a bottle of beer at night. To date, he has lost 17 extra pounds, and I have lost even more weight than planned - by 10 kg. The diet contains fruits, vegetables, dairy products without additives, boiled meat and steam fish. Spices give it all a special charm. I do not regret the transition to such a diet - health is more expensive.
Natalia, 52 years old
My real history of losing weight is hard and long. I weighed over 100 kg, which led to complications in the joints. When it became difficult to walk, I decided to urgently start losing weight. If you compare old photos and those taken now, you can find 100 differences. I dropped the first 30 kg by swimming and giving up sweets. I reduced the amount of portions, began to eat fractionally, but often.
It was hard, I constantly wanted sweets, but I overcame myself. I didn’t give myself a reason to eat something harmful, if I wanted to eat - I ate an apple or drank a glass of kefir. After reaching a weight of 70 kg, she began to do exercises on simulators, and received a developed personal weight loss program. With the help of the rejection of fatty and fried, it took another 15 kg. My weight is ideal, and I am completely satisfied with the figure.
