Fad diets, food curbing and crash diet, weight loss seems to be a continuous effort. Even after following a strict diet regimen, people tend to gain weight. Why? Maybe because most fail to comprehend what a successful and permanent weight loss diet involves. This is why shedding too many pounds is just a temporary event followed (almost immediately) by weight gain.

 Adjusting eating and exercise habits often seems a daunting task and most of you never make it beyond a single day. But here are some healthy minded women who made it possible to reach their ultimate weight loss goals. Let’s have a glimpse of their success stories:

Mary Renwick

Mary is a 30 year old housewife who was lean and lissome before she moved to a military base in Sicily with her husband. While her husband was on tours she filled the lonely days with food. In the process she became 40kg heavier and her six-foot lean frame converted into obese and stout.

The Change in Lifestyle: When she developed a mindset to regain her normal figure there was nothing that could stop her. She started slowly with a walk on treadmill everyday. With regular amount of exercise she adjusted her eating habits as well. She replaced processed foods and bad carbohydrates with high-fiber and fat free diet. Her main strategy was to say a “big no” to white foods and eating outside. The last thing that kept her motivated all through the process was her bathroom scale. After a time span of 8 months she was back in her normal frame and lost 45kg.
