I was introduced to Kevin through a friend and within a few minutes discussing nutrition and health, I knew I needed this man´s services. Kevin´s knowledge was second to none and instantly myth-busted so many things fat loss related, that I had previously taken as Gospel.
Being recently self-employed and working almost 70 hours per week left me with little time to go to the gym and focus on my health. I felt it was my food choices that were the problem with my weight gain over the years. Going for the quick and easy fix, fast food options greatly appealed to me as it often allowed me to go straight back to work.
In addition to wanting to improve my overall health, one of the main reasons I came to Kevin for help was because I wanted to look good for my future wife-to-be and with my wedding only a few months away, I needed to take action fast.
I also found that as my weight increased, my back pain became worse and I was struggling with sleep on a regular basis, taking pain killers most nights. I was sure this was related to the excess weight on my stomach.
The results I achieved and the level of service I experienced was amazing. It exceeded my expectations and I surpassed my goal and lost 11kg in ten weeks. Bear in mind that during this time, I had my stag weekend away and numerous celebratory drinks and meals out.
Not only was I losing weight but my energy levels were also improving daily! My back pain ceased too and my sleep quality dramatically improved!
I found that when I am more focused with my eating, this was also reflecting on my everyday life. I was more focused on building and expanding my business, making better sales and being a lot more positive in general, which helped massively when it came to making a sale.
My relationship with food was fantastic and brought me to a new, healthy place. In the past, I had been an emotional eater (like a lot of people) and I found that with Kevin´s constant support, guidance and education, he provided clarity and helped me control it completely.
So much so, that my wife, who was receiving nutritional advice from another nutritional consultancy at the time, jumped on board with me and received a nutrition framework from Kevin 4 weeks before our wedding.
She had witnessed the foods I was eating and how much I enjoyed my meals. The service essentially took the thinking out of meal preparation for me. I was eating foods I enjoyed with a lot more flexibility whilst still losing weight.
My wife was much happier working with Kevin and PRISM Nutrition and we really enjoyed our meals together in the lead up to the wedding. This had the added benefit of making our lives a lot less stressful coming up to the big event.
Now that I have lost so much weight, I am now looking to build some muscle and sculpt my body to the physique I have always wanted. Kevin and I have already set the wheels in motion for the next phase in my nutritional journey.
I have learnt that knowledge is power when it comes to food choices. Simple things like knowing not to fear fat, understanding portion control and using full fat milk, rather than more low fat/skimmed, tastes so much better!
I also now know that eating little and often is a myth, and 3 square meals a day are not required to lose weight. Losing body fat is all about calorie balance and I now know how to eat according to my personal preference and hectic work schedule. I found that I began to enjoy my meals a lot more while eating at home instead of out at a restaurant or fast food joint. Better choices all round have made me feel more confident not only about food but also in my everyday life.
Thank you Kevin for the great service. If I ever feel like I need a boost or support nutrition wise again, the first call I am going to make is to PRISM Nutrition.
