Weight Loss Success Stories: Inspiring Before & After Pics …

Dr. Kevin Gendreaus motivation for losing weight was rooted in tradgey.

When my sister was diagnosed with an aggressive, rare form of cancer, I decided to change my life, Dr. Gendreau,who had reached 300 lbs. by consuming a diet full of bread, pasta and chips, told PEOPLE. For me, being obese was a choice. How could I literally eat myself to death while my poor sister was fighting for her life?

The primary care physician started on a high fat, low carb diet and tracked his progress through MyFitness Pal.

As my sisters condition worsened, I became more motivated than ever to eat healthfully because I knew my niece [Sophia, now 7] and nephew [Henry, now 3] would need me to be at my best, said Dr. Gendreau. Sadly, his sister passed away in June 2017.

On his new whole food diet, he saw astonishing results by eliminating processed carbs and sticking tofruits, vegetables, nuts, chicken, turkey, fish, eggs, non-fat Greek yogurt, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and non caloric spices and seasoning.

After his weight hit a plateau, he turned to intermittent fasting, which helped him shed the last 50 lbs. of the 125 lbs. he lost.

Now, he eats from only 12pm to 8pm every day. Outside of that window he allows himself black tea, black coffee and water.

He even began recommending his routine to patients. Intermittent fasting has been life changing for many of my pre-diabetic and diabetic patients, Dr. Gendreau said. But he cautioned, Intermittent fasting is safe for most people, but not everyone. You should definitely talk to your own doctor before starting any diet or exercise plan.
