Luis José

Hello, my name is Luis José. In my case I was always fat for as long as I can remember, there was a short period in my life when I lost weight when I was about 9 years old, but then I gained weight again.

My parents had their extra kilos, but they were never obese; My brothers were thin and always exercised a lot, something I didn’t do because I was self-conscious about my weight and because they always bullied me. For some reason, for many years I resigned myself to being the fat one in the family.

On the other hand, I suffered from asthma from a very young age and used medications that influenced my weight gain. Every day that passed I weighed more and having a crisis scared me, which is why I wasn’t very physically active either, I was afraid of getting sick.

I grew up self-conscious and therefore my life in all areas was affected, I was not able to finish my university degree and I continued to gain weight, then I met my current partner and fell in love; something that he later took advantage of to use me and continue making me complex.

Then my life declined again because I also lost my job and for a person who did not finish college, and with overweight problems, it is not easy to find a job. I suffered discrimination because of my appearance and had a very strong depression that led me to be unemployed for 3 years.

Something that marked me forever was that on one occasion I went to a job interview where they made me feel worse for being chubby since I started the process, yet they let me continue and because of the need to have a job I supported them treating me that way.

After having passed 2 exams and 2 more interviews, in the last interview the person who interviewed me told me: “If I thought I was going to have the job I was wrong because they couldn’t hire a person like me, because how could they trust a person who can’t even control what they swallow, how could I trust a person who can’t be responsible for themselves and other pejorative things”; I left there with my self-esteem on the floor and very sad, because of my appearance they were denying the opportunity to have employment.

I continued eating and that’s how I came to weigh 123 kilos, my clothes no longer fit, I only wore pants, because there was nothing I could wear anymore. I was crying out of desperation, going up and down stairs was a challenge because I felt like at any moment I was going to be out of breath and I wouldn’t be able to breathe, I couldn’t tie my shoelaces, my knees hurt a lot, and any effort that involved bending would make my head hurt a lot.

A very close friend who came to see me one day when I was very depressed told me that there was a doctor who had some products that could help me. At first I didn’t believe it, and I didn’t go; It took me a while to decide, I had to come to the idea of ​​suicide to realize that I needed help.

Desperate, I made my consultation and that’s how I arrived with Doctor Adriana and she explained to me that it was possible to lose weight and in a very simple way, that’s how I learned about the Cambridge product line and started my treatment.

I couldn’t believe that something so delicious and chocolate-flavored was helping me lose weight. My family helped me with the expenses of my treatment, because seeing me so motivated and for the first time happy to see how I was losing weight and recovering my self-esteem was something wonderful.

That desperate need to eat and eat diminished as the days went by, I could move, go up and down stairs without losing my breath, my clothes were starting to feel very loose, my pain was disappearing, my confidence was growing and that feeling of going shopping for clothes and finding sizes for me was unique.

My partner began to value me even more, my family couldn’t believe that the usual chubby guy was achieving his lifelong dream.

Today, 4 months after starting the treatment that has changed my life, I feel very happy and I know that I can achieve even more, I have lost 38 kilos and I have recovered my life.

At 31 years old I can finally dress how I like; I have found a job and I feel confident in myself, it is incredible to arrive somewhere and have people who knew me tell me that I look different and that I look my age.

I hope that my testimony serves to motivate other people who suffer the same as me and that they know the method that made my dream with Cambridge possible and good advice to achieve it is easy.
