Success Stories: Women

Ivana, 25

At the beginning of last year, I wasn't feeling well and measured my blood pressure for the first time. It was 210/114. I was so shocked and had to start dealing with high blood pressure. The more I dealt with it, the clearer the reason behind it became: I was overweight. On that evening, I decided to lose weight.

Alexandra, 38

As I approached 40 years of age and saw my body getting more out of shape, I decided to take control of my life but, for once, in a smart way. The combination of a balanced diet and regular exercise was the beginning of my success.

Melanie, 35

I was suffering from intracranial hypertension. I was facing the very real possibility that I would lose my sight if nothing changed.

Julia, 31

I was teased a lot and could never wear the clothes I wanted to. I didn't even dare eat anything in public because people would always look at me in a judgmental way. I tried to lose weight several times but never successfully.

Shari, 29

I was so ashamed. I thought so often, "That can't be you!" I wanted a change, and not tomorrow or next month. I wanted it now!

Anna, 26

I couldn't look at myself in the mirror anymore and thought it was awful that I just kept putting on weight. I downloaded Yazio, started to eat more consciously and started dealing with myself and my body.

Rim, 27

After my pregnancy, I stopped taking care of myself as a woman. I didn't recognize myself anymore and didn't accept all the changes my body had gone through.

Corinna, 37

I thought it was awful to look at pictures of myself. At that point, there were almost no pictures of me because I felt so uncomfortable in my body. Today, I've developed such an incredible zest for life and self-love. I have so much more energy and self-confidence, making me happy to continue eating mindfully and healthily each day.

Kerstin, 54

I didn't stick to other diets. They always led to short-term success until the yo-yo effect came.

Sandra, 35

The trigger for me to lose weight was at the beginning of last year when I almost got up to 220 pounds. By that time, I weighed more than my boyfriend and had already suffered a stress fracture in my foot due to my weight. I couldn't stand myself anymore. Did I want to continue living like this in my mid-thirties?

Pia, 38

Walking longer distances or even sitting at a desk for a longer time suddenly became impossible. My body couldn't do it, everything hurt. I felt more and more uncomfortable and would have preferred not to leave the house. Going shopping? That was just a necessary evil, in which I simply tried to find something I fit in. It went on like this until I finally decided to give it one last try.

Bille, 55

The main reasons I wanted to lose weight and change something were primarily my health problems and overall dissatisfaction. Yazio showed me that eating healthily can be a lot of fun and that I don't have to cut out anything to lose weight.
