Good Lessons to Be Learned From Fat Loss: A Case Study
We all learn from each other. One thing that can keep us going from any challenges is by looking up to someone that was able to achieve something that is similar to our goal. This is particularly true when we are into weight loss. So here is an inspiring story from a case study that will definitely refresh your motivations.
Her name is Angi, a 43 year-old lady who juggles her time as a student and a full time worker. She has a weight of 188.1 pounds or 85.5 kilograms and a total body fat of 41.2%.
This case gave Lee Busby, a fitness instructor who wants to attain a level-3 training qualification, a chance to work on her study. With the help of a nutritionist, Christine Davis, Angi’s journey has been a source of inspiration not only from fellow overweight people but to healthcare professionals as well.
Upon initial assessment, Busby determined the sleeping problems of Angi along with physical injuries in the hips and knees. It was also found out that her current program does not really suit her well so it is not effective to give her significant weight loss. This has been followed-up with series of consultations from Davis who gave her a diet plan which Angi can gradually see results in about 8 weeks.
Davis made a new one for her since she followed yet another diet plan that is not really effective. With all these ineffective interventions, Angi became lethargic which led her to have sleeping problems.
Angi’s Blog
At the start of her blog, she was glad to have a 12-week program from Busby from a contest that she won, and will meet the fitness team at 12:00 on January 7, 2013. After a tedious assessment and tests, she was given a weekly goal of losing 2 pounds. This can be achieved with daily physical activity and healthy diet. She has to do 6 days of yoga with a diet that is restricted in processed food with lots of water to drink. At this stage, she was explained to have fat loss rather than immediate weight loss.
Her goal is also be able to fit into a tiny bikini as she always admires women who join bikini competition, flaunting their shapes with matching heels. Above all, she still wants to be pregnant despite her age. With that, she promises to endure 12 Weeks of strength training and 5-kilometer running to achieve her healthy weight in 6 months. Now, with all the struggles and time juggling, she is now on her way to achieving a healthy weight. Her struggles, ambitions and daily experiences are all in the blog of Berkshire fitness.
Her case is the one that is followed by many health buffs as they see how determined she is to lose weight and get a life she has always dreamed of. With that in mind, it is good to remember that weight loss is never easy. However, the support of credible health professionals and overcoming struggles will eventually lead you to a healthy and happier version of you.
