The doctors’ diagnosis sounded like a verdict. But the Australian was able to overcome the craving for sweets and lose half of her weight.
Kimberly Tripp has always dreamed of having children, but eight years ago doctors said she was unlikely to be able to get pregnant because of polycystic ovary syndrome and a weight of 140 kilograms. The diagnosis was disappointing, but the 34-year-old Australian was not going to give up and decided to do everything possible to become a mother.
According to Kimberly, she has never been thin. Even at school, she began to be teased for her rounded forms, and with age, the numbers on the scales only increased. The girl wanted to change and get rid of extra pounds, but it was difficult for her to fight addiction to sweets – Kimberly adored chocolate and ate at least one large tile every day.
The Australian woman lacked motivation – until the moment when she and her husband thought about expanding the family. The words of the doctors forced the woman to get together and reconsider her usual diet. After consulting with experts, Kimberly chose the best option for herself – keto diet. She gave up sweets and dishes with a high carbohydrate content and enriched her diet with healthy food – mainly protein. The Australian carefully chose products, giving preference to sources of healthy fats and low-carb foods. For the first time in a long time, she began to cook herself.
At some point, it became clear that due to hormonal disorders, Kimberly would not be able to lose weight significantly naturally. In 2015, a woman decided to have an operation to reduce her stomach. This drastic measure did contribute to rapid progress, but it would not have been possible if Kimberly had returned to her old habits.
Kimberly has done a lot of work on herself, followed a diet, increased the amount of physical activity. Her efforts were not in vain – now the woman weighs 77 kilograms and feels great. The Australian woman’s dream came true – 15 months ago she became the mother of twins Leo and Patrick. According to the woman, she did not hope to give birth at all, but now she is raising two sons at once.
“When I found out I was pregnant with twins, I was shocked. I cried all day with happiness,” recalls Kimberly.
Over the years of working on her body, the Australian has become accustomed to sports and healthy eating, and now they have become the norm of her life. By the way, Kimberly is not going to stop there. Her plans are to lose another 10 kilograms.
She calls her progress a miracle and says that she has never felt so healthy and happy before. She urges women who are unable to lose weight not to despair and continue to fight for themselves and their family. “I lost weight, discovered the world of cooking and fell in love with sports. I love all this and I want to pass this love on to my children,” says Kimberly.
