Ellen, 65, spent seven weeks on a metabolism boost plan and reversed her relationship with food. She stopped restricting herself, started eating more, and lost weight while gaining control over her habits for the first time.
Okay. So I wanted to celebrate your results. As of now, we're still in. We're in week seven, so you still have this week and we have a plan moving forward. So as of week seven results, you've lost a full seven pounds from the metabolism boost. You've also lost one and a half inches in your bust, you've lost two inches in your waist, you've lost two inches in your hips, and then you've lost everywhere else. An inch in your thighs, an inch in your arms, and a half inch in your calves. And you've also gone down for your body fat, like, pretty significantly, two and a half percentage points. So how are you feeling now? Like, how are you feeling before and how are you feeling now about where you're at?
Okay. So before, I was really feeling sort of like my food and my weight was controlling me. Right. Rather than me controlling it. And, you know, I do, you know, what everybody else did, like every diet I could find and it, you know, and I had to lose the weight fast and, you know, I'd lose weight and then I put it back on and it, it was exhausting. It was frustrating. And I, you know, I really felt. Felt like I just don't know what to do. And then it was really hard to take it off, even without eating a thing, you know, just to get it to move. So I was really excited when I saw what you were doing, and I was like, what, you know, what do I got to lose weight and fat, you know, so. Wow. I mean, the first, I mean, I, I love the fact that you started with, know, just get your morning together, Just do breakfast so I didn't have to think about everything because it's overwhelming. And then the results, amazing. I mean, one thing I feel like, I feel like I'm healing my system, not hurting my system. I'm able to eat all this food that's tasty and be completely satisfied. And, and when I don't, I, I want, I go off reservation. Like, if I don't eat enough protein for lunch, you know, around 4 o', clock, I'm like grazing for, you know, bad things, you know, and I'm like, oh, get the yogurt and blueberries, Ellen, not the chocolate bar. So that's, that's just amazing to me. I mean, I, what I eat for breakfast and I'm a person who is like intermittent fasting, no breakfast, you know, didn't eat till 12 or 1. Not hungry in the morning. Now I get up and I'm starved and I've got this bowl of food, like, you wouldn't believe. Like, you know, it's like a bat, a vat of food that I eat. And also, I just. I mean, one week when I lost anything and I went to play pickleball, and someone who hadn't seen me in a while said, oh, my God, what have you been doing? You look great. And I was like, okay. I really needed that this week. Thank you.
Yes. Oh, my gosh. So that's so great.
And so, like. And then you find that your clothes, like, are your pickleball outfits fitting you better now?
I mean, everything just goes on. And I think I told you this, and I may. You know, one day, I looked down at my arm and I was like, where did those muscles come from? I'm doing the exact same thing I've been doing. I go to Orange Theory, I lift. I'm lifting the weights, and all of a sudden, like, you know, I'm much more muscular, you know, not in a good way, you know.
Absolutely. Oh, my gosh. That's amazing. Okay. That is so great to hear.
