Background/Reason for Joining Eat That Frog
Tyler joined Eat That Frog in 2023 after being signposted to us by his GP. He was in the early stages of understanding his diabetes diagnosis and struggling with low self-confidence. He openly admitted to having an unhealthy diet, lack of exercise, and feeling unsure about how to manage his condition. Seeking support to make positive lifestyle changes, Tyler turned to Eat That Frog for guidance.
Support Given
Tyler was paired with his mentor, Steve, who worked closely with him to develop a tailored plan focusing on fitness, nutrition, and confidence-building. Together, they introduced a structured exercise routine, incorporating regular gym sessions and a free weights programme. Alongside this, Steve provided Tyler with essential knowledge about the benefits of protein and how different foods impact the body. He also guided Tyler in preparing healthy, nutritious meals to support his new lifestyle.
Outcome
Through sheer determination and commitment, Tyler achieved incredible results. Within a year, he lost an astonishing 6.5 stone, leading to his diabetes going into remission! Seeing the transformation in his health and mindset only motivated him further, and he now has the confidence to set new fitness goals. He has expressed his intention to continue attending the gym regularly and has even set his sights on completing a 10K marathon—alongside his mentor, Steve.
Qualifications Gained
While Tyler’s primary focus was on his health and wellbeing, he also developed valuable life skills in nutrition and fitness, which will continue to benefit him long-term. His journey with Eat That Frog has equipped him with the knowledge and confidence to maintain a healthier lifestyle independently.
