02 Alan Christiansen lost 93 Lbs
Alan Christiansen’s 78-pound weight loss journey began when his 12-year-old daughter came to him in tears, worried that he would die from being overweight. You see, Alan Christiansen’s wife had passed away early, and he was the only one who could take care of this poor girl. Determined to make a change, he downloaded the weight loss app Lose It! and followed the 8-week keto diet plan outlined in the book “I Quit Sugar.”
“Now I eat much smaller portions and record everything I eat,” he said. “I eat fruits and vegetables, but with almost no sugar.” He also exercises for 40 minutes in the morning (usually doing Tabata, a form of high-intensity interval training), and takes long walks with his daughter. A strange suggestion he swore by was to consider recording your meals before eating, instead of afterwards (or worse, the next day when you might forget things). This can help her assess whether the situation is normal for the day and make the appropriate adjustments.
Of course, after Alan Christiansen slimmed down, he has been living happily with his daughter, who went to Harvard University last year.
