I thought I was healthy. For a sixty year old grandmother I’m in the very active category. I’ve run thirteen marathons, and nearly every year I compete in a half marathon, a cross country relay race, and a triathlon.
Most diets last a few months. I’ve been on a fairly strict one since I was thirteen years old. I avoided unhealthy carbs like white flour, white bread, and white rice. Fatty-foods like cheese, burgers, and cream sauces were out too. Its been so long since I tried a protein drink, I’ve forgotten why I included that on my naughty list
There was only one problem. My nutrition wasn’t balanced. The more I trained, the more fat I gained. And then there were the constant stomach problems. I lived so long without the right balance of calories, carbs, protein, fat and fiber that I ended up with lots of intestinal bloating, discomfort, and pain.
When I finally found Fittur, I’d been in diet mode for nearly forty five years. I was shocked to find out that I could eat more, run less, cut fat, and lose the pounds I’d been fighting all my life.
Fittur showed me how my diet restrictions were depriving me of essential carbs to fuel my training.
