Yan Yige is extremely fat and extremely thin, with a 30kg difference. The secret to her successful weight loss is...

Yan Yige became ill a few years ago and experienced a life of self-exile, going through stages of being extremely thin and extremely fat. He also cut off all external contacts. Fortunately, thanks to the stimulation at a friend's party, he found himself again and successfully lost over 70 kilograms, maintaining his weight for several years until now. What is the secret?

Yan Yige said: "When I was young, I lost weight improperly and became skinny. Then I used Chinese medicine to regulate my body, but I became fatter and fatter. Later, I felt that I couldn't do it anymore, so I took the initiative to terminate the contract with the record company. I wanted to wait until my body recovered before singing again. But when I stopped, depression came and I became fatter. I almost imprisoned myself."

Yan Yige calls herself an Aries who is competitive and never gives up. She has been a winner since she was a child and has everything under her control. But ever since she lost her health due to reckless weight loss, she has gradually adjusted and changed herself. "I never thought that being extremely thin or extremely fat would make me a depressed patient. For at least two years, I hardly left the house and cut off all contact with friends and family. I just hid myself and lived on my savings. Fortunately, I also broke up peacefully with the record company at that time, so I was a widower for two years." said Yige.

Taking Chinese medicine to recuperate the body is because I lost weight too much before, so that the body could not absorb any nutrients, and I was almost skinny. Later, I used Chinese medicine to regulate my body, and I could absorb everything I ate. Yige said: "The difference is as much as 30 kilograms. During the period when I was fat, I just didn't want to face it. I told my friends that I was busy and had no time to meet, but in fact, I didn't meet anyone.

"No one knew what happened to me, not even my parents." She actually didn't know how to recover, until one day, a college classmate whom she hadn't seen for a long time said that she would come to Taipei from Hong Kong to celebrate the New Year and insisted on staying at her house. Yan Yige couldn't refuse, but she would never forget the look on her classmates' faces when the door opened and they were surprised and looked as if they couldn't recognize her. During that time, her friends stayed with her. Although they didn't say anything, they just kept her company.

Then, her friend even forced her to attend a New Year's Eve party with her classmates. Yige said, "I was really scared at the time. How could I let everyone see me gaining 70 kilograms? I just wanted to escape." Later, she was dragged to the venue by her friends. Yige said, "At the time, I really felt that there were hundreds of eyes staring at me, and thousands of mouths whispering in my ears, saying, 'How did Yan Yige become like this?' I don't actually remember how the party ended. I just wanted to escape home."

It was really painful to go home at night, not knowing what to do next. But, miraculously, the next morning, when the sun rose, "I woke up and found that I was still alive and well. Then my friends sent me messages of concern, saying they would help me with anything. Suddenly, I felt that I was awake, completely awake."

Yige smiled and said, I will always remember that on the afternoon of January 1, 2014, I began to get excited. I signed up for the gym and decided to exercise to get rid of my huge and heavy body. It took me more than two years, and I lost weight slowly through exercise, and I am indeed much healthier now. She is actually quite grateful to her current record company. She said, "Just when I was about to start exercising, the record company asked me if I could go for an interview. I went for the interview with my most bloated body and signed the contract. To be honest, I am so grateful that the company did not despise my poor figure at that time."

She added, "I got sick because I used very drastic measures to lose weight. Although I am still impulsive and anxious sometimes, I will know when to put the brakes on the road to weight loss and dare not make the same mistake again." She now maintains a very standard figure. The key point is that after losing weight, Yi Ge still exercises and does weight training regularly. Even in daily life, she does not miss any opportunity to move more. For example, she will never take the elevator if there are stairs, and she will never sit down after eating. She will force herself to stand. She will walk back and forth when she has nothing to do. In this way, even if she has no time to exercise, she can still maintain her figure.

Looking back on the time when I was starting to cheer myself up, it was also very hard. Yige said: "After I started losing weight, I could see the numbers steadily going down, but there would always be a plateau where I needed to work harder. I am very happy that I was able to face the crowd and my life again when I was still very overweight. It also gave me a good opportunity to start over."
