These small changes in diet helped this guy lose more than 100 pounds.


"My mother received me at the train station and walked directly through me because I changed a lot."

• Nicholas Davis' weight increased to almost 320 pounds due to years of unhealthy eating habits.

• After aerobic training and regular personal training, he completed more than 100 pounds of modifications to lose weight.

• Davis now trains in the gym for up to 8 hours per week and reduces body fat to 15%.


On his 45th birthday, Nicholas Davis realized he had to control his weight. Davis, a 49-year-old technology chief in London, said: "Someone is taking me to open a card and it looks very lazy." "I hate how I look, it creates a wave of self-hatred that makes me read as a tsunami."

At its heaviest moment, Davis was about 320 pounds tall. "The clothes do not fit me well, the clothes I wear are more like stores than shirts," he said.

Thanks to the parents of the owner of his restaurant, he always tends to overeat. But it is not just the ready-to-use food that causes it to be overtaken, it is also a psychological factor. "As an introvert, I often turn to food to deal with stress and unhappiness," he said. Because he is not happy, he often doubles his work at work, which causes stress and bad behavior: a lot of time, eat late, skip the gym.


Its size makes it shrink from social interactions, for example, when you are too big to fit a roller coaster, it is easy to feel shy. Getting out of people makes him feel more disgusted with food, in a vicious circle.

He is determined to change. He said that his attitude has always been the biggest obstacle. Although he is very unhappy, he still does not take any action, perhaps because it seems difficult to start. "But in the end, I have to say that I've never been there before," he said. "Tomorrow will never come, so what matters most is what I'm doing today."

So he started at an early age. He switched to a low carb diet and ate only two meals a day. He quickly started losing weight and launched a 30-minute aerobic exercise every day. He tried CrossFit but found him too "masculine" with much embarrassment and unnecessary snoring. Instead, he resorted to gymnastics, appreciated mobility, flexibility and time to get some of the simplest movies. "It's great at any age," he said. "But when you're learning at 45 and you're never completing a task in your life, it seems to be cooler."

Some disorders of the family caused a setback, he was in his gym, gym, personal trainer, exchange gym, let him hit the machine, but not the masculinity of the first CrossFitters. With a mentor, he works in the gym up to 8 hours a week. In its thinnest part, it weighed around 192 pounds, although it soon began to use more muscles; his body fat is now 15.8%. Your waist is very thin and you only wear a larger shirt because your muscles need it.

For Davis, the transformation is truly amazing. "My mother received me at the train station and walked directly through me, I changed a lot," she said. "Everyone is surprised at how much I've changed."

He plans to move forward. He did not consider the goal, but he considered his great trip. "Remember that it's not about fate, it's about the trip," he said. "You will fail, you can fail often, it does not matter". He did not succeed because it gave him the opportunity to cheer up and move forward.
