EP71 - Losing 8 stone and discovering confidence - Liv's story Today I welcome the amazing Liv to tell her story so far and how already she has benefited so much from changing her life. When Liv found herself in excruciating pain and was given a Gall Stone diagnosis, her hopes of being booked in for surgery to solve her worries evaporated when she was turned away from the hospital due to her weight. This triggered several emotions for Liv but ultimately gave her the courage to begin her weight loss journey. In this episode Liv explains the importance of changing your lifestyle, but in a way that is manageable for you. She advises anyone wanting to improve themselves to go at their own pace, not allowing others to push you into unrealistic objectives. At the beginning of her transformation, Liv found 5 minutes of walking to be her limit however she set out in competition against herself, aiming to remain consistent and improve over time. During her journey so far, Liv has lost over 8 stone by tracking her calories and ensuring she remained in a calorie deficit. This allowed her to still eat without restricting certain food items, providing she stayed within her calorie limit for the day. We also talk about plateaus, and how recently Liv is facing the challenge of setting new goals to ensure her progress continues. This is something I can relate to and am sure many of you listening will also.
