The Man Shake - Weight Loss Shakes
Peter's story
When Peter’s doctor told him his blood pressure was of concern, he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.
“I'm a 38-year-old self-employed tradie, with two young kids, and I enjoy the occasional boys’ trip. I thought my health was fine – until I booked a health check to get my speedway licence. My blood pressure was through the roof, but I was in denial, so I went for a second opinion.” Peter admitted.
“The next 24 hours were a whirlwind of appointments and triple-checking results, which confirmed my blood pressure was at a dangerous level."
"This was the wake-up call I needed to get on top of my health. It was time to have a very serious conversation about my weight and put a plan in place that worked for my lifestyle. 5 months later, I’ve lost 25kg, using Man Shake."
“Now, my daily routine starts at 5am. I usually grab a coffee on the way to work, and then at smoko time I have my Man Shake. I’d have a wrap for lunch at 12pm and then on the way home, I drink another Man Shake, followed by dinner with the family.” Peter also commented that, “I have very good support from my wife, who helped with changing the family dinner to be healthier and made it work for the whole family.”
When asked about how his life has changed since he started the Man Shake diet, Peter said, “Physically, it's different because you're not carrying all that weight around. My body doesn't ache, my knees aren't as sore, I’m more active with the kids, and it’s just easier to get around. It's given me more confidence.
Despite changing his diet for the better, Peter has still been able to enjoy a balanced lifestyle. “I still go to the pub and have a couple of beers, but I’ve found that I can't have the big steaks any more. Now, I get the small eye fillet and really enjoy every mouthful.”
After seeing success with Man Shake himself, Peter has also inspired some of his tradie mates to get into a healthier lifestyle.
“On my second or third week on the diet, I was off to Fraser Island on a boy's fishing trip. I took my shakes and blood pressure machine when I went over there, and my friends had a go passing the machine around in the afternoon.” Peter then found that two of his friends needed to follow up with their doctors when they got back from the trip because they also had high blood pressure readings.
As for Peter’s advice to those just starting their weight loss or health journey, he urged people to get a health check from a medical professional. From there, he said the key was to “start looking after yourself and just make small changes to see a difference - you'll feel better for it.”
