About Toby

I was once 358lbs, dangerously unhealthy, and facing a crossroads. My daughter had recently passed away after a long-term hospital stay; while I had neglected myself during that heartbreaking time, my weight struggle had actually spanned many years. I simply didn't want to put my family through any more suffering.

I went to my GP intending to ask for weight loss surgery. However, the required blood tests revealed a grim reality: I had developed Type 2 Diabetes, fatty liver disease, and high blood pressure. I felt a deep sense of shame. My mum and uncle had both passed away due to complications from diabetes, and I could see history repeating itself.

My doctor urged me to start lifelong medications, suggesting I could just 'pop the pills' and not worry. Intuitively, that felt like the beginning of the end. I refused the prescriptions — except for blood pressure medication which I no longer take or need — and decided to completely revamp my lifestyle instead.

The Results

Using a low-carb and intermittent fasting approach, I lost 163lbs in just 9 months. I have kept it off while still enjoying the 'odd treat.' Since the weight loss, I’ve even run a half marathon. I have never felt healthier or more confident.

Why I am Mentoring

For a long time, I resisted my friends' suggestions to share my knowledge because I am not 'qualified.' But I realised that while I’m not a doctor, I have achieved exactly what many people are currently striving for. I’ve lived the struggle, felt the shame, and found the way out. I’m here to offer you the experience-based guidance which I hope can help you achieve your goals

About the lesson

My Weight Loss Journey: From XXXXXL to Medium

In just 9 months, I lost 163lbs, dropping from 358lbs to 195lbs. To put that in perspective, I went from a XXXXXL shirt size (Yes 5XL!) to a Medium. Along the way, I reversed Type 2 Diabetes, high blood pressure, and fatty liver disease.

My Approach

I am Toby, and I provide experience-based guidance rather than a prescribed service. I am not a doctor, nutritionist, or trainer, and I hold no clinical certifications. I mentor from the perspective of “this is what I did” and “this is what I would do.”

My focus is on the mental and emotional side of weight loss and how what we eat can impact both of these states.

- How specific foods affected my mood and energy.
- Utilising the "mind-body" connection to stay motivated.
- Navigating social situations while living a low-carb and intermittent fasting lifestyle.
- Maintenance strategies to ensure the weight stays off for good.

First Session: Free (No Obligation)

We’ll discuss my story and the overview of my methods. Most importantly, we’ll talk about you: your journey, your goals, and what you hope to gain. This session is designed for us to see if my experience is a good fit for your aspirations.

First Paid Session: The "Full Blueprint"

If we’re a match, this session covers everything I did to lose the weight - the pros, the cons, and what I would do differently now. My goal is to give you my entire roadmap so you can use it to reach your goals, with or without my ongoing support.

Ongoing Mentoring & Support

If you choose ongoing sessions, we can cover:

- Goal Setting & Accountability: Weekly reviews of successes and challenges.

- The Mental Game: Deep dives into emotional hurdles and psychological "tips and tricks."

- Data & Research: Discussions on information and research I found life-changing, plus how I use blood ketone monitoring to understand my own fat-burning markers.

- Practical Tools: My favourite recipes (I’m a decent cook!) and how I integrated movement and exercise after weight loss.

Details

Sessions are a maximum of 1 hour and are suitable for anyone over 18 looking for a real-world, low-carb and intermittent fasting blueprint. I always advise consulting your doctor before starting any new dietary or lifestyle protocol.
