As a result, I failed a lot in my health efforts by leaning on convenience and old habits. After losing my job I had to take up a third shift in a factory which left me mentally and physically depleted. My first attempt at a healthier lifestyle was rough. I had a pre-diabetic diagnosis, was depressed, stressed, and I’d recently lost one of my jobs. TF: Would you say that was the breaking point for you? On a routine doctor's visit in 2015 I found out I was 320 lbs. My health was less than my last priority and over the course of 5 to 6 years I gained 100 lbs. I would work out a little here and there but didn't watch my diet. I worked multiple jobs to provide for my family, I had absolutely no energy, and I used food as a comfort to deal with it all. I "stress-ate" quick calories throughout my day. I was in the retail industry which means I was short on time and surrounded by food at the mall. IS: After high school I slowly became less active and focused more on my work. TF: Ian, tell us about your lifestyle prior to making the meaningful shift to meal prep and exercise. Ian was kind enough to take time out of his day to talk with us about his transformation and how he was able to stay diligent and hit his goals. While his mind was pushing through the craziness, his body was hitting a breaking point. Working too many hours, not spending enough time with friends and family, and definitely not focusing on health and wellness. His story starts out just like many of ours do: One of our first customers, Ian, reached out with a success story and it blew us away - he lost 150 pounds over 4 years. However, these are often the most impactful stories we hear from our customers. Weight loss or weight gain are secondary benefits to the ThinkFit meal prep system. ThinkFit was started in an effort to bring products, information, and community to people looking to improve their health.
