I lost 20 kilos in past 2 years. I was 95 kg (on my 177cm height) and now I'm 75kg.
First I was on
Atkins Diet. In about 4 months I lost 13 kilos eating mostly meat and vegetables lowering carbons/sugar usage.
After that I just stopped eating some things or lowered their use. Today I eat smaller amounts of food, I eat lees bread (also baked stuff and pizzas), I eat more regularly and use less sweets (I was addicted to chocolate before), 2 months ago I stopped drinking soda drinks (coca-cola and other crap) and I feel like never before.
And now the main part!
Belive it or not it's all in your head. If for example you stop drinking coke. Your body will ask for it couple of days, maybe a week, and after that when you are detoxicated from that shit, your body will no longer ask for it. BUT what's with your mind? Will you want to drink it again? Do you feel bad/unhappy that you can't drink it? So where is the problem in fact? I know that quitting such thing is not an easy task (trust me I done it couple of times). BUT
all you need to do is to convince yourself that
YOU WILL BE BETTER if you do not drink that shit: you will loose weight, live healthier, eat less sugar, have better teeth.......... Today 2 months later I am totally resistant to coke since I convinced myself that I don't need that shit. Coke advertisements do no longer affect me. My friends that drink coke when we go out don't affect me. Really I don't care and I feel really good. So by building your self your body will build up too. It's all in your head!
