    Svetlana — 34 kg down: she started losing weight two days before a celebration and did not put her dream on hold

    After giving birth to her second child, Svetlana weighed 100 kg at a height of 1.57 m. The excess weight quickly affected her health: pain in her legs and joints, fatty liver disease, skin tags, numbness in her hand, and poor skin condition.

    I felt as though I was losing myself and that my health was getting worse from one month to the next. I knew I had to do something now, not tomorrow.

    Her previous attempts to lose weight always ended the same way: 5–6 kg down, followed by another 8–10 kg gained. She tried reducing her portions, but she did not know how to build a balanced plate—and this approach did not work.

    How she discovered DIKETO

    Svetlana came across my Instagram profile by chance and followed me, then unfollowed. Some time later, she saw me in her feed again and decided to stay. That decision changed her life.

    I never thought a simple Instagram account could change my life—but that is exactly what happened.

    Starting without delay

    On 9 April 2024, Svetlana purchased the one-month DIKETO course—just two days before her daughter’s first birthday.

    Most people would have postponed starting until “after the celebration,” but Svetlana began immediately.

    If I had already decided to change my life, why should I wait? One event is not a reason to postpone taking care of your health.

    Even at the celebration, she managed to build a balanced plate.

    The first results

    • First week — 3 kg down

    • First month — 10 kg down

    The results motivated her to extend the course for another three months.

    When I saw the first results, I knew I was on the right path. I felt lighter, not only physically but emotionally too.

    Four months of discipline — 30 kg down

    Over the next 90 days, she lost another 20 kg.

    Total during the course: 30 kg down in four months.

    Svetlana ate delicious and satisfying meals without going hungry. Her diet was so varied that even her husband—whom she had not told anything—did not realise that she was following a diet.

    A break and a return

    In October 2024, Svetlana completed the course and took a break until February 2025. During this time, she maintained her weight and even lost another 2 kg on her own.

    In February 2025, she returned to the course and lost another 4 kg during the first month.

    The most important thing I learned is that you should never give up. A break does not mean the end, and discipline does not disappear when you have built it properly.

    Final result — 34 kg down

    Svetlana now weighs 66 kg.

    The 100 kg she started with are now only a memory.

    How her health changed

    • Her joint pain disappeared

    • Her fatty liver disease resolved

    • Her skin tags disappeared

    • The numbness in her hand disappeared

    • Her skin became clear and radiant

    Her advice

    Choose the three-month course from the beginning—the longer format gives you more discipline and a more stable result. Do not keep putting it off, because every day matters.

    Her example inspired many people she knew, and many of them also joined the DIKETO course.

    Conclusion

    Svetlana is living proof that you do not need to put your dream on hold. She began her journey two days before an important celebration and completely changed her life within a year.
