My name is Diana Winter, I am 48 years young and married for 21 years. I have 2 wonderful sons, one 14 years old and one 17 years old. And the love of my life, my support and support, is my husband Erik Winter. And he works as a self-employed person. As a carpenter.
I chose this route to reduce my weight, and how you can take a closer look at food by looking at the macros. And also to get my menopausal ailments under control. And also to reset my mind.
In 2014 I lost 45 kg on my own. I received tips about this from a personal trainer. It took me 18 months to achieve that result. But then I gained weight again...
On June 30, 2017 we moved from North Holland to South Holland. We went to live in Schiedam. I also went to several gyms there, but it wasn't quite there. I was looking for a gym where I feel comfortable. In 2020 I came across a Facebook post from Enforce, De Afvalrace Rotterdam. It attracted me a lot but I didn't respond to it. A few days later it came up again. Then I thought I'd sign up and see what comes my way.
A few days later I received a call from Rick Berkhout asking if I was still interested in the Rotterdam elimination race, and I said yes. On July 30 we went to an information evening. I was very interested and with the approval of my husband Erik, I registered for six months at the Afvalrace Rotterdam, to reduce my weight and tackle my own self, to change my mindset. And above all, to tackle the transition.
I started on August 2nd. And I soon felt comfortable and at home in the gym. I then started exercising 3 times and once a week with PT supervisor Rick Berkhout. But I quickly found this to be too little. And I wanted to exercise more days a week, which quickly became 6 times a week. I was soon introduced to Yusuf Akbas, my new personal trainer. We quickly clicked well together. And I really like challenges. Yusuf gives me good challenges that I benefit from and can work on throughout the week. The nutrition I had to work with was also a challenge. And I like that, because I love healthy food and I don't like meat, but I do like fish. And let me tell you, I still love it all.
DECEMBER:
YES, THE LOCKDOWN has been announced, and I'm disappointed about that, but we will immediately think about it and take action. And I started working at home with my sports equipment and ordered some more sports equipment. And now I exercise at home for 5 days! And one day a week at the outdoor gym training with Yusuf. And believe me it was very cold BBBRRRR. To this day I still enjoy doing it. I really feel like I'm getting better and better every day and I feel better about myself. And I think my mindset, paying attention to my diet, is really great. You just see that your weight goes down if you really work on it. I also see my figure becoming more and more beautiful.
How grateful can you be for yourself. And also so grateful to the personal trainer Yusuf Akbas. Who especially supported me in the Enforce elimination race. And also to the other personal trainers for whom I am also so grateful. This step I have taken is certainly dear to me. Now that the Loss Race has ended, I have decided to continue for another 6 months and continue training to achieve my further goals together with Yusuf. To get rid of those last 13 kilos, and I will succeed! I just keep training, it gives you so much energy and a positive mindset, a happy face and a lot of strength to do fun things again.
For example, to go running, and the last part of my pedicure training is to make my Aov online. To get my diploma as a pedicure. I say I am proud of myself, I am now 15 kilos lighter... And I am really enjoying it. I say stay healthy and exercise.
