Rysiek and I have known each other almost since the beginning of my adventure in Norway in 2019. He had been closely observing my work with clients since then, but nevertheless decided to work under my guidance relatively recently. He had a trauma due to many unsuccessful weight loss attempts.
We started working on his physique in September last year. He approached me when I organized a 3-month figure metamorphosis program. Without hesitating for long, I qualified him for the project in which Rysiek did the best makeover!
Before we started our cooperation, Rysiek weighed 178 kg at a height of 180 cm. His BMI was over 50 and qualified as morbid obesity. Due to Ryszard's weight and size, I first recommended a number of medical tests. They showed insulin resistance and a significant testosterone deficiency.
I managed to persuade him to go to the right doctor. He was prescribed medication for insulin resistance and testosterone in gel form. Supporting the pharmacotherapy were my recommendations on diet and physical activity.
To begin with, I recommended that Rysiek take medium-length walks and significantly increase his daily activity. His state of health required small steps. However, he enjoyed the walks and gradually increased the length. This was enough to raise his heart rate and speed up his metabolism.
I prepared the menu to include four meals a day, at fixed times. We lowered the carbohydrate content and the total daily calorie intake was based on a significant deficit. Meals were low in calories but high in volume. As a result, Rysiek did not go hungry and did not feel like snacking.
The kilos flew off the scale really quickly. Rysiek's mood and attitude to life improved week by week. His lifestyle also changed. He gave up his typical couch potato mode and started to get out of the house far more often.
The combination of medication, the right diet and increased levels of physical activity produced amazing results. During the first four weeks, Rysiek lost about 14 kg! His clothes started to get looser and looser, which added motivation to continue.
The transformation shown in the photos covers the period from September to December 2022. The initial 178 kg dropped to 150! That's a whopping 28 kg less in 3 months, which is more than 15% of his total body weight.
With such great results, Rysiek is incredibly motivated to keep going. He immediately signed up for another 3 months of cooperation, for the next edition of the project. As a reward for his victory in the first edition, he will then have another 3 months free of charge! At present, Rysiek already weighs just under 140 kg, but we have plans to go much lower. I have no doubt that we will succeed in achieving them!
