Weight Loss Plan – Fat to Fit Solution

Welcome to HM FIT RX™

The Problem

Five years ago I was near 275 pounds, felt very isolated and hopeless. My doctor warned that my cholesterol was way too high, and I must start statins. My A1C level was in type 2 diabetes territory and he said I would soon need Metformin medication. My blood pressure was high at 135/90, known and he said that it was urgent that I had to do something.

The Turning Point

One evening I was in an all-night NYC deli, where I spent time with my friends ‘Ben, Jerry & Pepperidge’. Vanilla heath bar crunch and Tahoe white chocolate and macadamia cookies. The truth was that I had enough food that day and there was no need for more later that night. For breakfast, I had my standard eggs and cheese on a bagel, with a slice of tomato and onion, plus an orange juice.

 

I had a snickers bar and a banana for a snack.

 

Lunch was usually a turkey sandwich on rye with avocado and mayo. A few chocolate chip cookies and potato chips on the side. With a root beer, my favorite soda, even before coke. For dinner, I had a couple of slices of pizza with mushrooms on top, cheese lasagna and french fries.

 

Whenever I had pizza, I always wanted ice cream as a dessert.

 

So, it was either a vanilla heath bar crunch, a snickers ice cream bar or a dove bar covered with chocolate and almonds.

The Midnight Snack that Changed my Life

And even after so much food, I still craved some more nosh in the evening. This night, I made my way to the deli on the corner of 43rd St and Tudor city place for a midnight snack. I felt like I needed more snack to breathe. Even though I knew I was struggling to breathe when climbing the hill to my building. I got a blueberry yogurt muffin and an orange Gatorade. The colder the better.

 

Yet, I was still craving another blueberry muffin.

 

I was beyond obese. I could not see my feet looking down, and had trouble walking up hills. But, I still felt that I needed another muffin when I knew I did not. Has that ever happened to you? I did not know what to do to help myself. I had tried so many diets. But I thought, all the diet doctors argue about meat, dairy, and carbs.  

 

And I had tried so many of their diets and was still confused. But, I never heard of any of the diet doctors debating if vegetables were good.

 

I thought at least everyone can agree on vegetables. But what are vegetables I wondered? For me, vegetables meant a slice of tomato and onion on my afternoon turkey sandwich. Or those little carrot cubes in a Swanson’s frozen chicken pot pie. Or tomato and onion on a bagel and lox sandwich with cream cheese.

Before and After Results of the Hashi Mashi Weight Loss, Strength & Fitness Plan

Hashi Mashi Weight Loss Plan

That night, on June 21, 2012, at the age of 55, I decided I was going to focus on vegetables. Yet, I still had no clue what to eat. My diet revolved around pasta, bread, chips and pretzels. Along with meat, chicken, cheese, peanut chews, m&m’s and chocolate chip cookies. Like many other overweight and obese people, I was so concerned that I would not have enough to eat on my new diet plan.

 

Of course, that was ridiculous, cause I had enough fat on me to last for months.

 

The next morning I asked the chef at Cafe Tudor where I got my bagel, egg, cheese plus orange juice to change the menu. He did not like that at all. Because, I asked for a whole egg, 3 egg whites, and to hold the bagel and cheese. Instead, I asked him to add all the vegetables he had, plus avocado, hummus, olives and capers. He was not a happy camper about that, but since I was a regular customer and he is a kind chef, he asked me what am I going to call this mess?  

 

I said let’s call it Hashi Mashi, my first real food meal based on as many vegetables as I could think of. That is how the  HM FIT RX™ weight loss plan first started. Little did I know that ‘Hashi Mashi’ which I said as a joke, would develop into a formula that has helped me and many others to lose weight and get fitter and stronger.

 

The Solution – Six Months Later Results  

Six months later after focusing on one Hashi Mashi plan meal at a time, I was 75 pounds lighter. Real vegetables became the foundation of my meals, instead of processed foods. After adding strength training like deadlifts, squats, and pushups, I lost another 25 pounds. In 15 months, I was a total of 100 pounds lighter, to where I am today at 170 pounds, five years later. I discovered that vegetables are not window dressings for main course meals.

 

Vegetables are the main course.

 

Powerful vegetables like asparagus, bok choy, broccoli, okra, potato, and watercress. Or cauliflower, mushrooms, spinach, zucchini, and corn on the cob. These vegetables and more were all great ways to have a satisfying meal. And they will leave you feeling good and even help lift your mood. I saw my cholesterol drop a hundred points. Also, my blood pressure normalized and A1C levels fell to normal as well.  

 

Not to mention that I could finally stop wearing xxl large plaid shirts and could actually fit in a suit. Most importantly, I became more hopeful and optimistic about the future.

That first “Hashi Mashi” meal saved my life. I did not realize how changing the quality of the food I chose, would change my body. And how changing my body would change my life.
