How I Cooked My Husband 62kg Lighter with Tesco

Overwhelmed?

Ok, let’s start from the beginning. Tesco is our store of choice. Why?

In the last two years, we have taken on an exciting journey to enhance our health and shed excess body weight! When we say some weight, we mean a significant amount of body mass and belly fat. Together, we have successfully lost an incredible 82 kilograms.

What is 82 kilograms? It is about 180.78 pounds.

To have an impression of this quantity:

·      If a standard 5-kilogram bag of sugar equals 11 pounds, it will yield 16 5-kilogram bags of sugar.

·      If a large bag of basmati rice or chapatti flour weighs 10 kilograms, imagine 8 large bags and two additional bags of 1 kilogram each.

·      16 large bottles of 5 litres of vegetable oil and 2 one-litre bottles.

·      164 bags of dog chicken bite treats, each weighing 50 g.

·      A total of 361 iPhone 16 Pro Max, with each weighing 227g.

·      3 medium-sized dogs together, such as a German Shepherd, a Golden Retriever, and an English Setter.

·      A large suitcase full of clothes for a family trip could easily weigh around 82 kilograms.

Now, after our imagination got blown up, let’s return to business.


Tesco Superstore

  • Its motto: “Every little helps”

  • Do you know how many food items Tesco has? The public profile and sources like “Public First” and “USDA” say that “Tesco carries a vast selection of food items, with an average Tesco Superstore stocking around 25000 food and beverage products. This includes a wide range of fresh produce, chilled items, and pantry staples.”

  • Where should I start? What should I do? What should I shop for? How should I cook? What should I eat? Here we are, overwhelmed again.


From Shopping List to Life-Changing Results

A Thank-You Letter from Us, Your Grateful Shoppers

Dear Tesco Team,

I’m writing to express our heartfelt thanks for your incredible range of healthy products and for helping us completely transform our lives.

My husband, at 53 years old and weighing 161 kg, was carrying a significant burden that posed numerous risks to his health and well-being. When it came time to change our eating habits two years ago, we started with a simple shopping list and the nutrition knowledge we had acquired from Harvard Medical School. 

We began to cook all our meals from scratch, using hearty ingredients from our local Tesco Superstore in London. Experimenting with new ingredients, adapting my recipes, and developing new mixtures and dishes felt like we were discovering our food anew. Healthy and tasty meals were all we needed for our incredible transformation.

Seven months later, this became a meal plan that helped me lose 20 kilograms. Even more amazing, my husband has lost 62 kilograms over 18 months, dropping from 161 kg to 99 kg—all through home-cooked meals made with ingredients from Tesco.

Your extensive selection of nutritious, affordable foods made it easy to make healthy choices each week. With clear labels, fresh produce, and inspiring product options, we remained motivated, creative, and satisfied. We never felt as though we were on a diet—we were preparing better meals with healthy ingredients.

Thank you again, Tesco Superstore, for allowing us to cultivate a healthy lifestyle with your products. You've helped transform our kitchen and home into places of joy and renewal.

Warmly,
Diana and Dorian
A proud customer with a healthier life—and fridge—to prove it!

Also, we want to share some great news.

As a result of our incredible weight loss journey, we have launched a project called My London Diet to showcase and inspire others to adopt healthy choices and embark on a transformative journey. Additionally, on our website, you can find Dorian’s picture before and after his transformation, along with his struggles with being overweight and with hunger.

Tesco has made our healthy transformation remarkably easy to adopt, implement, and maintain. Thank you, Tesco!
