All in the Mind

Christian’s 200lb Weight Loss Journey

 

 

Trying to keep a positive attitude in the face of extreme health issues is a daunting challenge, and one that might defeat even the most diligent of dieters. Today’s guest, Christian Evans, not only stayed positive and persevered, but managed to lose almost half his body weight in only 10 months. No pills, no surgery, and all while working as a chef!

 

Suffering from life-threatening sleep apnea, which caused him to be groggy, grouchy and hungry during the day, Christian ended up relying on a CPAP machine to help him get the oxygen he needed while sleeping. A prisoner to his health issues, and grieving the deaths of several close family members, Christian began heeding the messages the universe was sending him. He decided to take action to prolong and improve his own life.

 

You’re going to war with yourself every day…you have to prepare

Christian did his research, relentlessly searching to find the diet that would help him. After getting burned out by diets that offered little variety, Christian discovered “Hungry for Change,” which explored the ‘why’ of hunger and overeating, and gave him the mental juice he needed to lose weight.

 

Look at roadblocks as opportunities to create new opportunities

After initial weight loss success, Christian decided to incorporate juicing and smoothies into his diet. A 3-day juice fast turned into 60 days, just by taking it 3 days at a time. 80 pounds later, Christian suffered a setback – indulging in some favorite foods. He quickly realized he had more work to do. He set himself small, achievable goals, and soldiered on, ultimately losing 187lbs in 10months.

 

Your fitness journey is yours, just try to be the best you that you can be

A lifelong weight lifter, Christian changed up his gym routine. He switched to cardio and because he suffered from a foot injury he used the elliptical. Setting himself small goals and challenges, he figured out what worked for him and his lifestyle.

 

Let your results speak for themselves

Today, Christian offers a starter program and coaching on the techniques that helped him lose so much weight. He has learned from experience, and now wants to reach out to others to share the fruits of his experience.
