Losing Weight Woman over 60 - Brenda's Success Story

Brenda Shaw, 81, from Michigan turned to food as a way to cope with the loss of her loved ones. However, the retired HR manager has managed to drop down to 154 pounds thanks to Custom Keto Diet boosting her mood and confidence.

Brenda was struck by a series of tragedies when her husband, Ian, had a fatal heart attack in his car in 1992, her mum, Ethel, was killed crossing a road in 1991 and her dad, Tom, died of natural causes in 1989. Brenda's weight also shot up because of her job, which took her around the US, resulting in her buying convenience food from service stations.

 

“After I lost my husband, I had nothing to come home to. I very rarely sat down for a meal at home. I was on the road all the time – eating on the hoof. I’d grab a chocolate bar or get a pizza in the office. Like most overweight people, our life revolves around food and, for me, if it wasn’t nailed down, it was for the mouth. I used to eat lots of cakes and sweets.”

Brenda joined Custom Keto Diet  in 2019. And after two years and seven months she got to her goal of 154 pounds. Now she has more energy to get active with her two great-grandkids. She said: “These days they both have horses and ponies and both compete in equestrian events and I go with them sometimes to cheer them on, which gives me the motivation to get out and about.

"I now eat lots of reduced fat foods, chicken and fat-free yoghurts. Losing the weight has given me my life back, more confidence, made me happier with myself, and clothes that fit that are now five times smaller than they used to be. Walking and climbing stairs was a great problem for me in my fat days and I used a walking cane. But I can’t remember the time I last used it since finding the new me"
