Hello, I'm Barana Tehrani, 43 years old from Isfahan. My height is 167 cm and I currently weigh 60 kg.

- Please explain how your weight-loss process went. How much weight did you start with, how much is your current weight, and how long did you reach that weight?

I've had the Mankan for many years. Due to certain issues, my weight went up and I reached a bit over 73 kg. Over the past five months, I've lost 13 kg. However, starting on December 23rd, my birthday, I decided to begin counting calories. Today, when I weighed myself, I had reached 60 kg.

- What was your initial calorie intake, and what is it now?

Mankan recommended 1700 calories for me, but by setting a goal, I consume 1000 calories daily, reducing my intake by 700 calories. From those 1000 calories, I burn about 400 calories with one hour of walking and half an hour of stretching exercises or stationary biking each day. I'm delighted with my progress and have completely adapted to living with Mankan. Counting calories has become a habit for me.

- How did you get to know Mankan?

I randomly installed Mankan from Google Play. I've introduced it to many people and got them using it as well.

Hi, I am Maryam Vaziri, 18 years old from Shiraz

- Please explain how your weight-loss process went. How much weight did you start with, how much is your current weight, and how long did you reach that weight?

When I started with Mankan, my calorie intake was minimal, only around 1000 calories. Afterward, I maintained a 1300-calorie diet without exercising for a year. However, over the last two months, due to increased physical activity, I've bumped up my calorie intake to 1400 calories.

I didn't exercise at all in the beginning—I was lazy. However, I have incorporated exercise into my lifestyle, dedicating about an hour to it. Exercise has had a significant impact on my weight loss.

- Where did your motivation to lose weight begin?

My motivation to lose weight started with the fact that I was 68 kilos in the martial arts class that I used to go to before the diet, and I couldn't do movements like others of my age. This issue made me come to my senses and say that now I can't do a sport, so in the not-so-distant future, I will suffer from foot pain and back pain in my younger years due to weight gain.

I first saw the posts of the model page on Instagram, and after reading the comments, I started my diet.

Negative experiences in my life, though not directly related to weight gain, took a toll on me. At my heaviest, I weighed 85 kilograms, but after facing a traumatic event, I spiraled into severe depression and gained 30 kilograms in just three months. I looked in the mirror and said to myself, "I'll show them what they've lost," and I started. Initially, my weight loss was solely for that person, but then I continued for myself.

I am Ali Salari, from Kerman province, Arzuieh city, Soghan district

- Please explain how your weight-loss process went. How much weight did you start with, how much is your current weight, and how long did you reach that weight?

My weight-loss journey has been straightforward. I started at 90 kilograms and reached 80. Then, I decided to incorporate muscle-building into my weight loss and fat-burning regimen. I have a lower body fat percentage and more muscle mass, even though I weigh eighty-seven kg now. My height remains 183 centimeters. I think my initial 10-kilogram weight loss took about a year and a half, and I started exercising consistently for three years.

- What was your initial calorie intake, and what is it now?

My calorie intake has never been consistent and has varied throughout different periods. Initially, when my goal was solely weight loss, my body's metabolism was at 2300 kilocalories, and I aimed to consume around 1900 kilocalories. However, after I started exercising, during phases when I followed a fat-burning regimen, my calorie intake ranged from 1300 to 1800.

I have been involved in bodybuilding and daily activities, averaging around 8000 steps daily.

I tracked these statistics using fitness trackers.

- Where did your motivation to lose weight begin?

I have primarily driven my motivation for weight loss through positive triggers. I always think about being a better version of myself. I have also greatly benefited from criticism from others, which has shaped my viewpoint and inspired me even more on my path.

- How did you get to know Mankan?

Quite coincidentally! I was looking for a good weight loss app when I stumbled upon Mankan, which I think was newly developed. I installed it through the Cafe Bazaar app.

Hello and greetings to the Mankan team. I am Ali Emadi from Tehran. I am 18 years old and became familiar with the Mankan program a year ago.

- Please explain how your weight-loss process went. What was your starting weight, what is your current weight, and how long did it take you to reach your current weight?

I lost about ten kilograms over a few months, which relieved the pressure and allowed me to start working out again, and that fixed my knee problem. In addition, I was able to quicken the process of losing weight and boost my general sense of self-satisfaction. In addition, I began boxing and resumed basketball, both of which aided my personal growth.

- What was your initial calorie intake, and what is it now?

I began my diet by aiming for an average intake of 1500 calories daily. Occasionally, I would consume 1700 calories, while on days when I ate plenty of healthy and nutritious foods, 1200 calories were adequate. As my weight approached my target, I transitioned to a maintenance phase, where I now aim for around 2300 calories per day to sustain my ideal weight.

- What activities did you do daily, and how many calories did you burn?

My primary activities revolved around aerobic exercises such as boxing and basketball, which play a role in fat-burning and overall cardiovascular health.

- Where did your motivation to lose weight begin?

My motivation to lose weight stemmed from a sense of dissatisfaction with my physical condition. You were tired of wearing loose clothes, feeling sluggish, and realizing that you couldn't adequately protect yourself and your loved ones. You believed it was your responsibility as a young man to be a worthy and capable individual, which seemed unattainable with laziness and overeating. Feeling exhausted by this realization, you embarked on your weight loss journey, initially attempting a loose diet plan without much success. However, a turning point came when a dear friend introduced you to a structured program, which allowed you to track your progress more systematically. After eight months, you consistently saw progress, as this program correctly predicted your weight loss milestones. While you acknowledge that this rate of weight loss may not be suitable for everyone and that patience promotes better health, you attribute your success to receiving sufficient nutrients and being relatively young. Undoubtedly, a year of strict dieting and unwavering determination presents its challenges, but you believe that many can achieve their ideal body within this timeframe. Therefore, you encourage others to start their journey today.

I am Rezvan Kamali, from Karaj, Alborz Province. My current weight is 75 kilograms, and my height is 167 centimeters. I used to weigh 87 kilograms initially. For several years, I tried hard to lose weight and experimented with various diets, but practically, I had no results and became hopeless—until my daughter introduced me to Mankan.

- What activities did you do daily, and how many calories did you burn?

I started my weight loss journey with Mankan, and it was going well; I was consistently losing weight almost every week. Initially, I was consuming 1200 calories. I managed to shed 9 kilograms in 8 weeks. However, I noticed that my body was becoming flabby, so I decided to join a gym and incorporate aerobic exercises alongside calorie counting. Some days, I was burning around 450 calories. I appreciate the Mankan program because, during my calorie-counting phase, I never felt hungry or deprived. Most importantly, I didn't experience any changes in my face shape after losing weight.

- Did you experience any complications during the weight loss process?

I didn't experience any side effects with Mankan, neither stomach pains nor hair loss, and my digestive system remained unaffected. Mankan provided me with awareness to understand how many calories foods I used to love and consume frequently, such as creamy bread and butter, contain. My friend, who is extremely physically fit, was the one who first inspired me to lose weight. The second reason was the trips I went on, which made me value my appearance and sense of style. As a result, I feel like I've been born again and am happy with who I am.

- If you experienced a prolonged plateau in your weight loss journey, please explain how you passed through it.

I didn't have a prolonged plateau, and usually, I had one free day a week when I could eat whatever I wanted, albeit with a guilty conscience! It seems to me that everyone should have the Mankan app, and it's crucial to be aware of the nutrition and calories they consume daily for a healthy life.

I'm Hamidreza Yazdanjoo from Tehran. I used to pursue professional football, but I suffered a leg injury and drifted away from sports. Over time, my weight increased to 105 kilograms. After that, I resumed playing football, but I always faced comments about being overweight, which prompted me to start losing weight. However, traditional diets had a negative aspect: they dictated what to eat. However, The Mankan app allowed me to eat whatever I liked while encouraging me to adopt a healthier eating habit. My metabolism was 2900 calories at first, but the app gradually reduced it to 2400 calories and continued to drop from there. Interestingly, this change wasn't difficult for me. My primary form of exercise was walking, and I also occasionally went swimming for fun, which helped me burn at least 500 calories a day.

- Did you experience any complications during the weight loss process?

Fortunately, I didn't experience any complications or weight loss plateaus.

I am Behnaz Rezaei, 34 years old, from Tehran, Shahryar

- Please explain how your weight-loss process went. How much weight did you start with, how much is your current weight, and how long did you reach that weight?

I am 160 centimeters tall, and my initial weight was around 85 kilograms. Over six months, I reached 58 kilograms with a 5:2 calorie counting diet. I maintained this weight for about five years, and currently, I'm at 65 kilograms, reducing it again through calorie counting. I consume 500 calories two days a week and between 1000 to 1300 calories on other days. I'm currently following the same method.

- What was your initial calorie intake, and what is it now?

I only followed the diet for the first few months. Later, I added walking. However, it's better to combine diet and exercise from the beginning.

- Where did your motivation to lose weight begin?

From childhood, I struggled with obesity. I was heavier than my classmates in elementary school, and this trend continued into middle and high school. I believed that my weight was the only reason why no one wanted to be friends with me. I was constantly ridiculed within my family, which significantly lowered my self-esteem. Even now, despite losing weight, I sometimes struggle with self-confidence. After getting married, my weight reached 85 kilograms, and that's when I discovered the 5:2 diet through Instagram and started using the Mankan app. I began tracking my daily calorie intake, and in the first month, I lost about 6 kilograms. This success motivated me to continue until I reach my desired weight and can fit into my favorite clothes.

- Which features of the Mankan do you like and why?

Once they added the macros, it became excellent and practical after initially not displaying them.
