Struggling to tie shoes alone... 57kg weight loss man, did changing the 'order of eating' help him lose weight?

As expected, the order of eating is important 👍

The story of a man in his 30s from the UK, who gained up to 127kg and found it difficult to tie his shoes alone, has been revealed after he lost 57kg in a year.

According to the UK media The Sun on January 24th (local time), British man Joshua Hilton (30) has enjoyed delivery food, chocolates, and potato chips since childhood. As a result, his poor eating habits caused his weight to increase to 127kg. Hilton said, "One day, my shoelace came undone, and I tried to tie it, but I couldn't do it alone," and "I gained weight and avoided meeting people." He continued, "Seeing myself like this shocked me, so I decided to go on a diet," and "I lost 57kg in a year." He started by changing his eating habits. Joshua said, "I ate in the order of dietary fiber, protein, and carbohydrates," and "People avoid carbohydrates when dieting, but I made sure to include carbohydrates in my meals."

Eat in the order of dietary fiber, protein, and carbohydrates.

Eating vegetables rich in dietary fiber first, as done in Hilton-style dining, is called the "reverse eating method." The reverse eating method involves setting a specific order for consuming nutrients during a meal and following that order to lose weight. Eating in the order of dietary fiber, then protein, and finally carbohydrates helps with weight loss because it prevents rapid spikes in blood sugar and induces a quick feeling of fullness. According to a study by the Cornell University research team in the United States, the group that first consumed dietary fiber and then ate proteins and carbohydrates consumed fewer calories and felt less tempted by high-fat or fried foods compared to the group that did not follow this order. Dietary fiber takes a long time to digest, so eating it first can prevent sudden increases in blood sugar. When blood sugar rises slowly, it is less likely to cause hunger. The reason for consuming protein before carbohydrates is that protein is less easily converted into fat and provides a greater sense of satiety.
