When Kev De-Lara had a shock visit with the GP about his weight, he knew it was time to make a change. Since then, Kev, who previously weighed 20 stone (127kg), has lost an incredible seven stone (44kg).

But how did he do it?

After realising he had to lose some weight for the sake of his health, he decided to sign up for MyFitnessPal.

The app calculates the number of calories users have consumed from food and burned from exercise.

It lets them know how many calories they have left to eat for the day and if they stick within their calorie limits, they should achieve the weight loss (or gain) they’re looking for.

He also focuses on looking after his mental health in various ways, revealing: “This is important, as when my mind is in a good place, then so is my healthy eating adherence.”

Now a multi-site gym manager and personal trainer weighing 13 stone, Kev explained his weight loss has dramatically changed his life for the better.

He said: “I’m happier, more confident, have more energy and love myself now.

“Being a gym manager is also something that I never thought would be possible!”
