Interview with Kathie: Effectively achieve your ideal weight with SHEKO
Tell us your story, Kathie. How has your weight changed?
“I used to be slim. And athletic! But during my pregnancy with twins nine years ago, that changed drastically – I ended up gaining 32 kg and weighing 92 kg . After the birth, I only lost 20 kg. Three years ago, I quit smoking, and food became my new addiction. Where other people eat one portion, I would fill two plates to the brim and then add another half on top. The biggest problem, however, was what I ate: pizza, fast food, chips, nachos – with cheese, of course – gummy bears… Looking back, I realized that my calorie intake was around 3000-4000 kcal a day.”
When was the moment when it clicked for you and you decided to really change something this time?
“Like most overweight people, I’ve tried to lose weight time and again – and tried absolutely everything. But it only led to frustration. Then, at the end of April 2019, something clicked. We were on holiday in Mallorca and my partner filmed me. When I saw the footage, all I could think was, ‘ Put that whale back in the sea! ’ That might sound harsh, but I knew things couldn’t go on like this. And my partner confirmed it. He told me he loved me the way I was, but that losing a few pounds would be nice.”
