Maria Lost 66.5 kg: From 132.5 kg to a New Life
How It All Began
Before giving birth, Maria weighed between 55 and 60 kg. She had a slight tendency to gain weight, but it did not cause her any problems. Everything changed 12 years ago when, after her son was born, the family received a difficult diagnosis.
“It was probably the result of severe stress. I started soothing my emotions with food, and at some point, I simply forgot about myself. All my attention was focused on my child.”
Then came the move from Ukraine to Moldova—a new language, new circumstances, and uncertainty. It was another psychological shock.
“I didn’t know what the future would bring. I lived in uncertainty and once again found comfort in food. I didn’t even notice how my weight reached 132.5 kg.”
The First Warning Signs
By that time, Maria had tried various diets and weight-loss methods, but without results. The situation continued to get worse.
“It was difficult for me to walk, and my knees hurt every day. The swelling was so severe that I could barely put on my shoes. Buying clothes had become a problem—I simply bought whatever fit. On the street, I could feel people looking at me. Sometimes I thought they were judging me.”
There were also unpleasant comments.
“Some people asked me directly, ‘Have you completely let yourself go?’ Then, when I started losing weight, they asked different questions: ‘Are you ill? Is everything all right?’”
How She Discovered DIKETO
Everything changed when Maria accidentally discovered Svetlana’s TikTok page.
“I followed her and watched the videos and stories of other participants. But for a long time, I hesitated—would I be able to do it? Then my husband said, ‘Let’s try it together. We’ll both lose weight.’ That was the decisive moment.”
On April 8, 2024, Maria and her husband started their first DIKETO course.
The First Results and Changes
The first two weeks were the most difficult: changing their eating habits, giving up familiar foods, and adjusting to new rules.
“I remember that, at first, it seemed impossible. But then it became easier. After the first course, I had lost approximately 30 kg!”
After the second course, her confidence returned, along with her energy and a new feeling of lightness.
“Compliments from friends and acquaintances were like fuel. I changed my wardrobe, and it brought me so much joy! But the final kilograms were much harder to lose. Sometimes I wanted to give up.”
How She Overcame Difficult Moments
The support of those around her made an enormous difference. Her husband, friends, and other course participants all helped her continue. Above all, she found motivation in Svetlana’s daily videos.
“Whenever I thought, ‘That’s it, I’ve had enough,’ I opened the course chat and watched Svetlana’s daily videos. Her words, examples, and the stories of other participants lifted me up and encouraged me to keep moving forward.”
When Other People’s Looks No Longer Hurt
Maria admits that people’s reactions were mixed at first. Some were amazed, while others were doubtful.
“Some people asked me, ‘Are you ill?’—as though illness were the only possible reason for losing weight. Now I smile when I hear that. I know this is the result of my own effort, not an accident.”
A New Life and Better Health
Today, Maria weighs 66 kg. She can wear any clothes she likes, take photographs without feeling embarrassed, and walk for hours without pain or exhaustion.
Her health has also improved considerably:
the swelling has disappeared;
her skin looks healthier;
her knees no longer hurt;
movement has become easier;
her energy and desire to be active have returned.
“I have completely changed my relationship with food. I choose products consciously and understand what I eat and why. DIKETO is not merely a diet—it is a way of life.”
Maria’s Conclusion
“I am deeply grateful that Svetlana came into our lives. My result is also thanks to her. She inspires and motivates me. I know I will reach my goal, even if the final kilograms are more difficult to lose.”
