Ketogenic Diet plan Success Stories 2020 - Samantha & Adele Story

A mum and daughter are almost unrecognisable after shedding a massive 140 lbs between them - all because of a 'mortifyig' holiday photo.  Samantha Gordon has struggled with her weight and portion control since she was a child. But it wasn't until she saw a "mortifing" photo of herself while she was on holiday with fiancé, Tommy Greenan, 28, that she decided to take action.

The mum-of-two, who weighed 200 lbs joined Custom Keto Diet and saw the pounds melt away. Inspired by her 27-year-old daughter, her mum Adele Gordon, who weighed 215 lbs, joined her at the diet class. Between them, the dynamic duo, of East Kilbride, Scotland, have shed almost 140 lbs with bride-to-be Samantha now a tiny size 8 and weighing just 118 lbs.

 

Samantha, who has two daughters, Amellia, three, and Olivia, one, said: “I was getting to my goal weight before mum joined Custom, but I remembered how it felt to have your confidence at rock bottom. Nobody wants that for their mum, but I knew she would only be able to change when she felt ready. Now I’m so incredibly proud of her.”

Both women had been overweight for as long as they could remember with Adele, who is currently single, saying that pregnancy accelerated her weight gain.

The 54-year-old said: “I was eating for two for nine months, then out popped Samantha, this tiny baby and I was left with all the weight.” Joining Keto, she managed to shift around four stone, which she kept off for a few years – but working hectic 13-hour days meant it eventually crept back on. 

 

She explained: “When I first lost the weight everyone was telling me how great I looked. I kept it off for a while – but not for good. Over the last decade, it has crept back up. Working long, hectic days meant reaching for quick-fix convenience food and snacks.

Since Custom Keto, Samantha has remained on-plan, only taking a break throughout her pregnancies – the second of which turned out to be the push Adele needed to join her daughter on the road to total transformation. With her size already meaning she found it difficult to run around after Amellia and play with her when Samantha announced she was expecting again, Adele feared she would struggle to find the energy to be an active gran of two.

She said: “Samantha had been very good with me in the past, showing me the WW app – which I now know is wonderful. She showed me how you can use it to scan foods in the supermarket to see how many points they’re worth and encouraged me to use it myself.
