Nina: "How I lost 17 kg in 4 months!"
"I could not stand physically anymore"
It was around the age of ten that Nina began to have weight problems. She obliges herself very young to watch her diet, but very sporty, she manages to keep a reasonable weight. But at age 20, when she stops intensive sport and continues to eat as before, nothing is better. She's getting fatter. "I've always had between 5 and 10 pounds too much. I was doing yoyo continuously. The extra pounds were mostly stored at the upper body and I had problems getting dressed. I was not good about myself, alternating permanent control of my diet and excesses. Nina's weight problem is not due to any heredity or disease. The young woman confesses simply to have always made differences by eating mostly foods that they knew bad for her weight. "I'm nonetheless insurmountable about what a balanced diet is, but the forbidden became enjoyable. "
In 2004, a sentimental breakup aggravated his problem. For several months, to make up for it, she eats and does not take care of herself anymore. She hides her body. In June 2005, she weighs 77 kilos for 1m75. When she comes back from vacation, she decides to do something. "I could not stand physically, and in a swimsuit it was worse. I had time to analyze my emotional failure and I understood why my ex-companion often told me that not to love oneself is a brake to accept the love of another. "
A very strict regime
Nina then makes an appointment with the nutritionist of a friend who has lost many pounds quickly. In view of his career and his various failures, the doctor decides to prescribe a diet based on protein sachets. "I had to take a bag in the morning with nothing else, at lunch a bag (various soups) and veggies and raw vegetables at will, at 4 pm, a bag and in the evening, like noon. I was not allowed to eat fruit, meat and sweets. Water and tea at will and the doctor allowed me to drink coca light, my "drug". Nina stood rigorously at these meals for almost two months. After a month and a half she started to re-introduce meat and fish instead of a bag.
Spectacular results
If Nina has held this drastic pace, it is not only because of her motivation but also the speed of results. "After 15 days I lost 5 kilos and 12 after a month and a half. It was obviously encouraging but very hard. I was tired and did not go out all the time to avoid temptations. It depressed me to see others eat and drink. Fortunately we were in the summer and with the heat, we were less hungry. My goal was to lose ten pounds. The doctor, whom I saw every week, told me that I could lose a little more. I lost 17 kg in four months. "
The fear of regrowing
For the young woman, stabilization is obviously what remains the most delicate. After such restrictions, resume a conventional diet can only make it grow. "I continue to be very careful. I allow myself a weight variation of two kilos. I am aware that I will never be able to eat like others. It is not easy to accept, at age 28, to constantly control his food. But Nina knows it's the price to pay to keep this line that she likes so much more. A new body that she must however tame. She had to renew all her wardrobe. "It's disturbing how the eyes of others have changed. I am so happy to have succeeded, although I know it will not be easy every day and I live in fear of taking back my weight. But I finally feel like I'm the real Nina. "
