Ethan Spiezer, 36, from Illinois, transformed his life after reaching a peak weight of 200 kg. The wake-up call came on vacation: struggling to fasten his seatbelt, unable to fit into rides, and constantly out of breath, Ethan realized it was time to fight for his health—especially after the heartbreak of losing his mother shortly before the trip. Determined, he set an ambitious goal: to lose 90 kg in under two years.
Through discipline and consistency, Ethan achieved an astounding 90.7 kg weight loss in less than two years. His approach combined the Keto diet, drastically reducing carbs, with intermittent fasting, eating only between noon and 8 PM. Even a temporary quarantine setback—gaining 9 kg in a month—didn’t stop him. He regained control, losing 4.5 kg the following month, proving that persistence pays off.
His wife Rebekah, inspired by Ethan’s journey, joined him. Together, they lost an incredible 136 kg combined—Ethan shedding 90.7 kg, Rebekah over 45 kg—transforming not only their appearances but their lives. For the first time in a decade, Rebekah’s weight dropped below 90 kg, and both gained newfound confidence, visible even in small everyday moments like wearing a T-shirt at home with pride.
The health benefits were life-changing. Ethan reversed pre-diabetes, healed his fatty liver, normalized his blood pressure, and no longer needs asthma medication. Rebekah’s chronic plantar fasciitis disappeared. Beyond physical health, both reclaimed energy, mobility, and self-belief, illustrating the power of commitment and mutual support.
Ethan’s advice is simple but profound: focus on small daily changes, tackle just one day at a time, accept that obstacles will happen, and never give up. His journey is a testament that with perseverance, support, and dedication, even seemingly impossible transformations are possible. For anyone struggling with weight or pandemic-related setbacks, Ethan and Rebekah’s story is living proof that change is achievable—and life can be reborn.
