How to really lose weight: the incredible story of Sergei Kutovoy. Lost a leg, but did not lose himself

And they promised to share inspiring stories of girls and guys about how they lost weight. The story of the new hero of our project - 20-year-old Sergey Kutovoy - clearly goes beyond the format, because it is filled with much more meaning than just fighting for beautiful body: this is incredible story overcoming, courage, courage and self-confidence.

“At 17, I was a fat, shapeless bag and weighed 148 kilograms,” Sergei begins his story, who prefers to call a spade a spade. Sergei went on a diet, began to lose weight. However, a few months later, when his goal was already very close, trouble happened to him. Sergey got under the wheels of a car, as a result of which he became disabled - he lost his leg. A completely different story began: the struggle for own life. Photos showing how Sergey looks now are the best illustration that the impossible is possible. HELLO.RU asked Sergey to tell his story from the very beginning.

Sergey, 20 years old

Lost 52 kg (from 120 to 68 kg)

My weight loss story began in 2013 when I was in 11th grade. I weighed 148 kilograms with a height of 186 centimeters. If you call a spade a spade, I looked like a fat and shapeless bag that no one could like. For a long time I was not embarrassed: I was not humiliated at school, I had quite a few friends. Unhappy love changed everything - they broke my heart. I always knew how to keep up the conversation, I was gallant with girls, but this was not enough. If your appearance leaves much to be desired, you will always be only a girlfriend for girls, and they will build relationships with other guys who are good-looking. Female hormones require testosterone, and fat men tend to have it at its lowest.

I decided that I would lose weight once and for all. I sat down on a protein diet, lasted 5 months without a single breakdown - I was able to lose 44 kilograms. I was very pleased with myself and set myself new target- another minus 20 kilograms, and after - gym and the struggle for a relief body. But things turned out differently...

On April 13, 2013, I was walking from the hospital where I had my regular annual checkup. Almost approached the house, it remained only to overcome the pedestrian crossing. Before me was a one-way road, I stopped and carefully looked around. The car gave way to me, as prescribed by the rules, and I began to cross. When I was on the sidewalk and seemingly out of the danger zone - I felt a hard hit. Blacked out. As it turned out later, the brakes of the WAF model truck failed, and at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, he knocked me down, slamming me into a pole. After that, there were 10 days of coma.

Coming out of a coma, I lay in bed in traction for 9 months - the pelvis was crushed, it was impossible even to sit. I missed everything: last call, graduation, entrance exams to the institute. This year I have become stronger, older. I had to cry and get angry, analyze and discover a new me.

In the hospital, I was completely deprived of physical activity: I played the computer, slept and ate. When I arrived home, I weighed 120 kilograms. I saw myself in the mirror last time looked still healthy and hopeful young men, and was horrified. I looked like an old man: bald and disabled, in a wheelchair, wearing glasses, with 37 scars on my body. At that moment, I realized that in order to be happy again, I need to learn how to deal with myself and my laziness.

I started looking for ways to get an athletic body and realized that only proper and balanced nutrition can lead to success. Diets, on the other hand, are stress and collapse for our body, metabolism, hair, skin, endocrine and hormonal system. My transformation took a year and a half. The first seven months was an internal psychological struggle with myself: I broke down several times, abandoning the system proper nutrition far away, and started again; the next 8 months worked on athletic form. AT in social networks I am often asked if I pumped out fat or injected some drugs. No, there are no magic "tricks" that will solve your problems with being overweight for you.

Sergey Kutovoy is sure: everyone can lose weight and put their body in order

I'm sure to change better side everyone can. Even I, a guy without a leg and in a wheelchair, was able to throw off 52 kilograms and gain an athletic physique. Why don't you try it too?

If we turn to practice, then the most main secret weight loss is to speed up the metabolism. A faster metabolism speeds up the pace of fat burning, food absorption, and muscle building.

I will tell you about the basic rules for accelerating metabolism:

1. Eat every 2 hours.

2. Do not drink during meals: either 20 minutes before or 40 minutes after.

3. Exclude fast carbohydrates: smoked, floury, sweet, salty, fried, fast food and convenience foods.

4. Go to bed early: Growth hormone is best secreted between 10 pm and 2 am.

Now I lead a normal life young man: I study at the university, I go to the gym and swimming pool, I have friends and a girlfriend. Recently I was invited to play sledge hockey at professional level, in the future - a chance to get into the Russian national team in this sport. The main thing is to believe in the best and set the right goals!

"The world is not without good people"- Sergey signed the photo. "On this day I arrived at the gym, but the elevator was not working. I turned around to go home. This man took me to the second floor on his own hands. Thanks!"

noted on the Field of Mars in St. Petersburg in the company of not only close friends and girlfriend, but also his subscribers. Today Sergey has more than 400 thousand of them. The guy gained such popularity on the network thanks to the story of overcoming himself, told with incredible honesty. A couple of hundred subscribers came to chat with the idol live, congratulate him on his birthday and be sure to hug him tightly.

After the accident, it seemed to me that I had no options, no opportunities, that I was doomed to a lonely life, an invalid, in which there would be nothing brighter. But I believed in myself, began to play sports, lost weight. And my life, to be honest, is better than before. And any of you can make your life better. Each of you has the right to happiness and love, so that you have a family, a favorite thing. Even if I could, you definitely can, - Sergei Kutovoy, an Arkhangelsk resident, addresses the crowd of fans.

At the age of 17, as a result of an accident, Sergei Kutovoy lost his legs and. The WAF truck's brakes failed, and at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, it hit the guy. The shattered left leg had to be amputated. He spent almost a year in the hospital, after being discharged he began to seize everyone with stress, he did not move much, so he quickly gained excess weight: 120 kilograms with a height of 186 centimeters. “He looked like an old man: a bald invalid, in a wheelchair, wearing glasses, with 37 scars on his body,” recalls Sergey Kutovoy.

Sergey was able to accept himself without a leg, but he couldn’t look at sagging fat folds, so he decided to seriously take on himself: first, a horizontal bar at home, then full-fledged workouts in the gym, a diet, and later even sledge hockey. Two years later, old Arnold would have envied Sergey's pumped-up biceps. And Kutovoy posts honest photos on Instagram both "before" and "after".

For the first time I saw Serezha in Nastya Ivleeva's vlog, and I was immediately hooked by his story: the guy did not lose hope, he is developing, growing. I have been following him on Instagram for a year now: he has very sincere and sincere posts. He inspires me a lot with his faith in people, - Nastya, a fan who came to congratulate Sergey on his birthday, admits.

Love life and Ksyusha

“There are so many fans around Serezha, aren’t you jealous?” - the girl of Sergey Kutovoy Ksyusha answers this question with a confident “No”. This is not surprising: Sergey looks at his beloved girl with such tenderness and love that it becomes clear to the enchanted subscribers that there is no chance.

"Why do you love Sergei?" - “He is very caring,” Ksyusha answers and wipes her tears: a warm meeting with so many fans impressed the girl. They hug Sergey and Ksyusha, ask for photos and autographs, and vying with each other asking questions.

The guys, answering the next question, remember the history of their acquaintance in different ways. Ksyusha laughs and says that Sergey ignored her for several months and only then invited her to the cinema: “I thought that the two of us would go. I came, and there were six people - family, friends.

Sergei explains such a company with serious intentions, they say, he immediately wanted to introduce the girl to everyone. “When I saw Ksyusha home after the movie, I took her by the hand and realized that I was attracted to her, that I want her to always be in my life,” Sergey recalls.

When I was invited to St. Petersburg to participate in the project "Sport to the People", Ksyusha supported my decision. This was very important to me. It seems to me that healthy relationships are when people support each other, - says Sergey Kutovoy. Our long distance relationship lasted for a year. It was very hard: I scooped out the last money from my pockets to buy Ksyusha a ticket from Arkhangelsk to St. Petersburg. But you know what I got? When everything in life is bad - do not despair. You pay these bad people for all the good things that will happen in life.

After graduation, Ksyusha was able to move to Sergei in St. Petersburg for good. After three years of relationship, the guys' plans are only more serious: to get married and buy their own housing, and not necessarily in a mortgage, but to save up for an apartment on their own. "I did not have complete family childhood was not easy. So now I really want a real one happy family with Ksyusha. It seems to me that it is right to give the society new people, ”says Sergey Kutovoy.

It’s not a fact that everything will work out, because my leg is cut very close, but maybe soon I will walk, ”Sergey does not betray his excitement.

It's cool, - says his friend Anton. - Yesterday we were sworn in at Menua. And it so happened that Seryoga was sitting on the windowsill, the stroller was removed, and everyone forgot that he actually needed help ... Do you understand what I'm talking about?
