Here is another success story of a weight loser, Khourey Royal, who didn’t resort to fast weight loss solutions like going through surgery or taking pills to help him shed inches and pounds.

Diet and exercise helped Royal lose 165lbs in just over a year!

Remember Jennifer Pate who lost 116lbs through regular workouts and healthy meals? It’s the same to Khourey Royal who lost from 430 pounds to 265.

What made Royal want to lose weight? According to him, “I kinda woke up one morning and thought I’d take the initiative to improve my life and improve my health and getting in better shape.

How did he lose his weight? Exercise. Royal was a runner. He ran between 30 and 40 miles a week. Long runs between 10 and 11 miles and short runs like 5 or 6 miles.

Khourey gave a lot of credit for his weight loss to his friends who ran with him and pushed him to run further and harder.

His advice on when you hit a plateau is just be patient. Stick with it, keep going at it and you’ll reach the weight you want.

Losing weight has changed him for the better. He’s happier, he’s not as fatigued. It’s now a new way of life, a healthier cleaner way of life for Royal.

Oh, I love reading success stories of weight losers very much! Their stories and secrets of losing weight inspire me to keep on shedding inches and pounds or retaining my existing weight.

Here is the story of Jennifer Pate of Ellenwood who successfully lost 116 pounds between January 2008 and September 2009.

I am curious how this mother of three is doing now? Did she lose another 25 pounds that she said she would?

What made her want to shed those pounds off? Well, when she saw a picture of herself one day! She couldn’t believe that was her and she broke down and cried.

Due to her obesity, she suffered from high blood pressure, poor circulation in her hands and feet, bone spurs and loss of energy.

What were her weight loss solutions to lose 116lbs? She started doing workouts with another family member and eating healthy meals.

Frequent Workouts. Jennifer did work out six days a week. She did a lot of running outside and on the treadmill, cycling two or three times a week at the gym, step classes, walking up Stone Mountain and running around it.

Healthy Meals. Let’s see her diet plan – Breakfast is a small bowl of grits and half a grapefruit. Lunch is a small salad and dinner is grilled chicken, spinach and fruit.

As I always say, regular exercise and healthy diet are still the best ways of losing weight.

Did she hit a plateau like anyone else who is losing weight? Of course she did. She joined Casi’s Straight Military Style Bootcamp where she lost more weight.

You know what makes her feel good after losing weight? She doesn’t have to shop in plus-size stores anymore! :-)

Fast Weight Loss Solutions For Overweight Women

You are worried and desperate because your once-stop-and-stare body is changing into pear shaped body slowly. In other words, you are getting fatter and fatter.

Hearing people call you “fat mom” or “fat woman” does hurt a lot, right? Perhaps you would rather let people call you “overweight mom” than “fat mom”. No matter which word people use, you can’t change the fact that you are fat, obese or overweight.

I am sure you ask yourself the same questions that millions of overweight women in the world do. “Why is it that I seem to get fat as I become older ?”, “Is it because I can’t get enough exercise?”, or “Is it because it’s in my genes?”

What many women don’t seem to ask is, “Is it something to do with the lifestyle I adopt as I get older?”

Think of this. Did women suffer from obesity a couple of thousand years ago when processed foods and junk foods were not around ? No, right?

Obesity seems to have become an epidemic only after people started stuffing themselves with junk foods. Junk foods for breakfast, lunch, dinner, day in and day out.

No matter how much fat your body has stored, you can get rid of all your excess fat – or at least most of it – if only your body is given a chance to help itself.

But how? Well, help your body burn fat by eating more! Eat More Meals to Burn Fat and Lose Weight Fast.

I mean eating more meals, preferably 5-6 small meals a day. Of course, you must eat small healthy meals each day.

You probably find it hard to believe that eating more than 3 meals per day could be the solution to speeding up weight loss, right?

The reason is that eating several small healthy meals daily increases your metabolism. By boosting your metabolism your body will burn calories and fat off at a much more consistent and quicker time frame. The faster you burn off calories, the more weight or fat you can shed off even if you eat the same amount of food.

If you skip meals, you will slow down your metabolism. By slowing down your metabolism, you are causing your metabolism to go into survival mode. When this happens, your metabolism will begin to store calories instead of burning them off!

For fast weight loss, you have to increase your metabolism.

In addition to boosting your metabolism, you must also incorporate all of the basic principles here: drinking plenty of water, getting 7-9 hours of sleep every night, cardio and weight training exercising, and proper nutrition.
