201 Weight Loss Transformational Stories That Have Changed People’s Lives
Gwilym Pugh: Lost 93 Lbs.
Gwen Pugh weighed 280 pounds, was out of shape and lived a sedentary lifestyle.
After a “5 to 7 year” weight loss journey, which included a lot of trial and error, Pugh, 33, lost 93 lbs., and he’s now found a new career.
Now, a top model and an ambassador for David Beckham’s grooming brand House 99, Pugh, tells FIERCE he focuses on a diet of micronutrients and good fats, and managable exercise.
“Due to injuries, I’ve struggled with high-intensity work, but I’ve found low-intensity cardio pre-breakfast has been great,” says Pugh, who now sees an osteopath and a trainer, and aims for 20,000 steps per day.
As for life as an in-demand model and social media influencer: “This life is something I had never even thought to dream of,” says the London-based Pugh. “Every aspect of my life has improved, from physical and mental health to personal and professional relationships.”
