Since the start of the year I've been on a meal plan given to me by a dietician, and have lost nearly 20kg. She did a genetic profile which guided her. In my particular case it is mostly seafood and green vegetables, but I can see how it can be different for other individuals. She also did blood tests and track my insulin and cholesterol, and prescribed several supplements (Omega 3s and Vitamin Ds and so on). As she explained it, the purpose of the supplements is to encourage my metabolism in a certain way so that once I reach my target weight I can deviate from the meal plan without gaining weight again. I also have an exercise program. According to the genetic profile cardio exercises won't have a big impact on my weight, but I need to train with weights instead to build muscle and control my body chemistry. It's been easy to stick to the plan because of the lockdowns. I can see how it would've been more difficult to stick to it if I had to go to the office and be among colleagues. I'm very happy with the results. It is hard to think how terrible I felt before and just thought it was normal.
