A personal trainer lost more than half a stone despite eating 10 slices of pizza every day for a month - and is now more ripped than when he started. Ryan Mercer, 34, ate pizza for breakfast, lunch and dinner and managed to lose three-and-a-half kilograms during the 30-day challenge.
He took on the challenge to show how calorie deficit diets allow people to lose weight without restricting their favourite foods. Ryan carefully planned his diet and made all the pizzas himself, while maintaining his usual exercise regime.
He said: "January is a tough month for people when it comes to fitness goals. I aimed to highlight not only fat loss about calories in and calories out, but that it's also not about restriction. We don't have to restrict our favourite foods to get results and I also wanted to encourage more people to prepare their own food."
