For John Arnold, a 19 year old from Jeffrey’s
Bay, an excess 126.8 kg was holding him
back from truly experiencing life. He constantly felt tired, had no zest for life and was extremely self conscious and shy. In January
2006 John weighed an alarming 196.8 kg, an
extreme amount for his 1.75m height.
Despite having tried a multitude of diets and
programs, John had never had any success
in losing weight because his motivation always faded. Finally, in January 2006 John
decided to try The Diet Everyone Talks
About.
According to John, “The diet isn’t inconvenient at all; you just have to adapt your lifestyle a little.” In addition to
changing his diet, The Diet Everyone Talks About encouraged John
to incorporate some exercise into his regime, and he says that he
really noticed the difference it made in helping the weight came off.
Since starting on The Diet Everyone Talks About, John has lost 95.8
kg and 70 cm from around his hips, and has decreased his blood pressure drastically. Now with only 31 kg to lose to reach his goal weight of
70 kg, John is more motivated than ever.
He has not only lost a lot of weight, he has gained a new lease on life, “I have now become the ‘real’ John Arnold” he says. Even his father
has said that he has become a different person, “He is talkative, confi-
dent and outgoing.”
Although he has still not reached his goal weight, John says that the
reason that he has been so successful on The Diet Everyone Talks
About has been his commitment to the programme, adhering to the
programme’s guidelines, and following his self-styled exercise programme. The continual compliments and support that he receives, as
well as his renewed self-confidence, contribute to his motivation to
keep up with the programme and keep him committed to losing that
final 31 kg.
