Johannes: It all starts with the mindset

You're currently having an incredible SHEKO success story. The kilos are melting away like there's no tomorrow. What was your starting point?

"You'll laugh: For months, my journey seemed like it would never begin. I 'd wanted to lose weight for a while, but I just couldn't overcome my inner resistance . Then in March, my clothes didn't fit anymore. That's when it 'clicked'. So, it was my mind that started it, before my body followed suit."

Do you think weight loss starts in the mind?

“Absolutely. I believe it’s our mindset that leads us to success. For me, that includes setting a precise goal and understanding why I’m doing something. I also try to replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Instead of saying, ‘I can’t do it anyway,’ I tell myself, ‘Stay curious about where it leads you.’”

Scientists actually believe that you need to befriend your mindset to lose weight faster and live a healthier life. Of course, your mind alone won't make the pounds melt away. But it can help you reach your goal sooner. The key is to take the pressure off and be kinder to yourself. Setting unrealistic standards for yourself triggers negative feelings with the self-imposed pressure. Take chocolate, for example: you shouldn't forbid yourself from ever eating it again. Instead, make a point of creating conscious moments now and then to enjoy it in moderation.

First a weight loss diet, then shakes

What happened after your 'click in your head'?

"I went into a drugstore and saw your Weight loss program I discovered it. After reading that it reduces hunger, I bought it. My problem was that I had gotten my body used to large portions over the past few years . I wanted to change that right from the start.”

And were you able to change it then?

"With the weight loss program , I quickly managed to get my stomach used to small portions again. I had absolutely no problems with it. On the contrary: I no longer find appetite unbearable, but rather enjoy feeling the body's natural signals again. I now have 'real hunger' again, but I also know when I'm full."

What happened next?

"I was so impressed with the treatment that I went to your website. That's where I saw your shakes and just ordered two containers." Since then, I've been replacing two meals a day with it. For my third meal, I make sure it's something balanced and fresh. I travel a lot for work and don't have a regular daily routine. I can take SHEKO with me everywhere , and I can always find milk. I especially like this simplicity about the shakes.

Which meals are you replacing?

"It varies – depending on what fits into my workday. Sometimes I replace breakfast , sometimes lunch , and other times it might be dinner . I check my schedule daily and then decide flexibly. It works really well!"

More than just the weight changes.

You're under 100 kilos for the first time in a long time. What else has changed besides your weight?

"There's a lot. But let's start with how my day begins. The change starts with getting ready in the morning. When I squeegee the wet walls after showering, my knees don't crack anymore. When I take the stairs instead of the elevator later – which I always do now to get more exercise – I don't get out of breath anymore. And you can clearly see it in my blood pressure, which was considered critical at the beginning of the year during a check-up. Since I lost weight, it's back to normal."

Johannes

"With the weight loss, I've gained a completely new sense of my body. Every movement is easier for me and I'm more motivated to go outside. I now go jogging regularly and really enjoy it."

And what about the mindset we talked about at the beginning? Has anything changed 'in your head' as well?

"I've gained a lot more self-confidence and come across as more poised – both personally and professionally. Of course, this is partly because I simply feel more comfortable in my own skin. But it's also because I now see every day what I can achieve if I just persevere. Every time I reach another goal, I feel a little stronger. It's truly an indescribable feeling."

Losing weight with SHEKO: Johannes' tips

Here's the guide to your very own success story.

1
Keep successes in focus

Johannes has set up a whiteboard where he records his achievements. "Seeing the number every day when I walk past it to get my coffee motivates me so much. I find it much more effective than a tracking app because I always have it in view."

2
Define a clear goal

Those who have decided where they want to go are more likely to actually embark on their journey. But be careful: don't set your goals too high; instead, plan in stages. This way, you'll have more reasons to celebrate and praise yourself, which in turn leads to increased motivation and renewed enthusiasm.

3
exchange with others

“I think it’s great to share my successes. Because when I get feedback from others, I feel affirmed that I should continue on my path.” Our Facebook community has also helped him with this.”

*The amount of weight loss varies from person to person and cannot be guaranteed. Similarly, the weight loss results reported in the SHEKO stories are individual and do not guarantee a corresponding weight loss within the same timeframe. To lose weight, two daily meals must be replaced with SHEKO shakes as part of a calorie-reduced diet.
