Shawn's Story
Shawn lost over 165 pounds by making healthy food choices a habit with Carb Manager! After losing a tooth, Shawn realized he had not been taking the best care of himself. He was ready to completely change his life. (We’d say he succeeded!)
Shawn says, “Complexity and guesswork make weight loss hard for me. Carb Manager kept me informed on what I was eating. It allowed me to change my approach to food.
I now see my food as a bank that has a limit that renews every 24 hours. I try to stay under my carb limit every day. It has become a type of game.”
Have you tried any other weight loss plans (low fat, low calorie, or other) in the past? How did they work out?
I have tried a lot of fad type weight loss plans but none have had lasting success. No other plan has been so easy for me to stick to as Keto with Carb Manager.
Tell us about your weight loss experience.
I decided to go with the Keto meal plans. For me “no fuss, no muss” works. My main tips from my success include intermittent fasting on a set schedule, and prepping meals and snacks for the week. My snacks are a set type of macros that = 75% Fats, 20% Proteins, 5% carbs. My last tip is walking.
How did Carb Manager help you stay on track?
Carb Manager has helped me and I don’t see myself ever unsubscribing. The most valuable has been the macro chart and logging my foods. I have used a lot of the app but think I can still explore more.
No other plan has been so easy for me to stick to as Keto with Carb Manager.
What do you see as the greatest benefit of going low carb/Keto?
The health benefits are worth going low-carb/Keto. It is a fun journey where the changes can be mapped, tweaked and improved along the way.
What's the best thing about being at your new weight?
This is a three-way tie for me. 1) The reduced weight and cost of my clothes now 2) I can fit into chairs and not fear chairs collapsing. 3) My wife is a lot more affectionate and frisky.
What are your health and fitness goals going forward?
Continue to follow my plan to see what is my best weight. After that point, it will be maintaining that weight.
