At 6 feet tall and 265lbs I never considered myself fat or unfit because I was always strong, fast and agile for my size. But I knew that carrying all that extra weight was unhealthy and felt it was time to make some serious lifestyle changes. I set a goal to be 220lbs by my birthday which was 8 months away. I started working out and decided to give up sugar, alcohol and takeout foods. I was 30lbs lighter by end of May.
Through SOF I was able to surpass my goal & weighed in at 212lbs by September (down 50lbs in 4 months!).
Although I had surpassed my goal, I still wasn’t satisfied with my physique. I was smaller in size, had increased my endurance but still felt I lacked the definition I wanted. I had hit a plateau I was getting weaker and my weight lose had also halted.
Instructor Quian told me that SOF was hosting a free seminar on nutrition, so I thought what do I have to lose? It’s free and I’m stuck! After the nutrition seminar, I booked an individual consultation with Lars, the owner operator of The Body Mind Nutrition Centre. I went in thinking there was probably nothing new for me to learn since I was able to lose over 50lbs on my own. Lars explained to me the difference between losing fat versus lean body mass/muscle. He educated me on taking your body out of stress and staying alkaline. He told me that the average person had 5-20lbs of toxins in their body and showed me that I did as well. He explained these toxins cause stress on your body and no amount of exercise can eliminate them.
With my physical transformation came an amazing and unexpected mental and spiritual transformation as well. I was truly becoming a different person. I actually began to attract people and conversations that I had never opened my mind to before. I was introduced to books and DVDs like “The Secret”, “What the Bleep…”, “The Power of intention”, etc. Now I realize through meeting Lars, the real reward of my weight loss was the enlightenment that came with it! I also realize that the power of my will and my intention is the real success factor.
As a result, I have gone from a wireless network technician to a Body Mind nutritionist and Reiki Master in less than one year! My personal Philosophy has changed from one of ego to unconditional love.
I believe the best expression of my own personal transformation will be by using my knowledge and experience I will be able to help others enhance their lives and achieve there goals physically, mentally and spiritually.
