I was not broken.
I am Kisilda. I am 43 years old, and I spent most of my adult life trying diets, losing weight, gaining it back and starting again. For years, I thought the problem was my willpower.
On June 14, 2024, I stepped on the scale and saw 102.7 kg. I had been putting it off for months. That morning, instead of starting a diet, I started reading about glucose management.
I told myself: this is not a diet. I am not prevented from eating what I like.
- June 2024. 102.7 kg. I added a small salad before lunch, and my afternoon energy crashes began to ease within a week.
- July 2024. Under 100 kg for the first time in years.
- September 2024. 93 kg.
- August 2025. 78.7 kg. 24 kg gone.
