When my friend told me about her strange morning ritual, I thought she was crazy. A few weeks later, I had lost 10 kilos, overcame my fatigue, and got my life back – at 45.

Raise your hand if you can relate:

It was a Monday morning, and I dragged myself out of bed, feeling more exhausted than ever.

I looked at myself in the mirror and did NOT like what I saw: an overweight 45-year-old woman, worn out by age and fatigue, with brittle hair and thick layers of fat on her stomach, waist, and thighs.

“What have I done to look like this?!” I thought.

Besides being visibly fat, my body was constantly tired and weak for no reason I could understand. When I reached my early forties, I felt like my whole body just gave up on me. 

All my problems – excess weight, fatigue, brain fog, lack of motivation – came at the same time, as if they were all conspiring against me. That morning, I was an emotional and physical mess, and I wished I could have returned to my mid-twenties when everything was so easy.

Hi, my name is Petra Kohler. I’m 45, and in this article, I’d like to share how this painful realisation led me to shed over 10 kilos of thick fat in weeks without drastic diets or intensive workout sessions.

After years of trying useless diets to lose weight and drinking zillions of coffees not to fall asleep during the day, I made a bizarre discovery that made me a completely different woman.

I learnt that nearly all my health issues – brain fog, weight gain, constant fatigue – came down to one little overlooked organ. This tiny organ, which will probably surprise you, is responsible for burning excess fat, boosting our metabolism, and keeping our energy high throughout the day.

However, when this organ is “switched off,” our metabolism slows down, we gain weight fast, and our physical and mental energy sharply decreases. According to my friend’s therapist, over 20% of women have this issue, and 60% are unaware of it!

Luckily, I discovered a simple habit that anybody can do every morning to re-activate this dormant little organ and jumpstart our metabolism at any age. I was very sceptical when I first heard of this health tip because I had tried so many things already without much success.

But after doing this bizarre ritual every day for a few weeks, I noticed an actual increase in energy, and it became naturally easier to lose weight. I lost over 10 kilos of thick fat thanks to this habit, and I’m proud to say that I now feel more alive, stronger, and more focused than I’ve been in decades.

If it worked so well for me, I believe it can also help other honest women tired of feeling overweight, exhausted, and unmotivated. The habit I’m about to share may not be for you, but trust me, it’s worth looking at.

The day I realised that I HAD to get my life back on track. 

I would define myself as an ordinary woman. I have an excellent job, a great husband, and two daughters whom I love more than anything else. I have everything to be happy.

Yet, from time to time, there is always this nasty voice telling me that I’m too fat, too lazy, and not healthy enough. I hate that voice, but at the same time, I know it is telling the truth.

Up until my thirties, I used to be in top shape: flat stomach, great skin, radiating with energy – without making much effort.

But after the birth of my second daughter Emilia, something changed. I started piling up weight everywhere on my body, and I couldn’t eliminate that excess fat no matter what I tried.

At the same time, all of my energy was pretty much gone. From when I woke up to when I went to bed, I felt exhausted like a lazy larva. The only thing that kept me awake was the countless cups of coffee I poured into my throat every single day.

I felt trapped in a vicious cycle of weight gain, laziness, and exhaustion: being fat and lazy made me depressed, leading me to eat more food I wasn’t supposed to eat, making me even fatter and more depressed.

On some days, I managed to stay positive by looking at the bright side of life; my passion for nature and gardening and my beautiful family.

But when I woke up that Monday morning to go to work, all I could see in the mirror was this: an exhausted woman with 10 kilos of excess fat, dull skin and hair, and a complete lack of willpower.

On that gloomy day, I decided that I had had enough. I had to do something to turn my life around.

Why weight loss solutions are useless: the painful truth that diet brands are hiding from you

If you’re trying to lose weight, you know as well as I do that hundreds of so-called “miracle solutions” are available online.

They promise you’ll lose 20 kilos in two weeks while eating delicious meals every day without going to the gym.

Needless to say, most of these “solutions” don’t work, and I’m the first victim of these blatant lies. I have tried dozens of popular solutions to lose fat and improve my health.

I tried the keto, vegan, low-carb, Dukan, and Atkins diets, and many others. I started running three times a week and skipping meals using intermittent fasting to reduce my caloric intake using a tracking app.

But it was the same story every time: I would lose a few kilos in 2-3 weeks before gaining back even more weight in the following weeks. The famous yoyo effect that everyone talks about and that you have probably experienced too.

The big problem with these diets and weight loss solutions is that they are not made to be sustained over time. After a while, your body gets fed up with the drastic food restrictions and punishes you by creating powerful urges.

In my case, after several weeks of rigorous dieting, irresistible food cravings started to appear. Worse: I had nausea and headaches, felt weak, and, honestly, I didn’t feel happier at all, quite the contrary.

So yes, it is possible to lose weight in the short term with the weight loss solutions sold to us. But most of these products do not allow you to get a slim body for a good while staying healthy, full of energy and vitality – which is what we all want in the end.

What’s the point of losing 15 kilos if you’re weak and depressed? It doesn’t make sense.

Then one day, while sharing my frustrations with a friend I met at yoga, I learned something really weird.

Something that turned out to be a “cheat code” to improve my health, and that could very well improve yours too. If what I’m about to tell you sounds strange, believe me, it’s perfectly normal.

I discovered that nearly all my health issues were tied to this little overlooked organ.

My yoga friend explained that she, too, not so long ago, was also constantly tired, lazy, and overweight. I asked her: “How did you get out of this vicious circle?”

She said:

“I went to a women’s health therapist. She told me that all these problems– excess weight, fatigue, depression, burnout– were often caused by a single, very common issue. It’s a little-known problem that affects about one in five women, but more than half of those women aren’t even aware of their condition. It’s what experts call a 'sluggish thyroid.'”

I raised my eyebrows when she said that.

“I know it’s weird, but when you understand how the thyroid works, you understand why all these problems appear at the same time. Basically, the thyroid is a small gland located in the neck responsible for regulating the speed of our metabolism.

When the gland works well, it produces critical metabolism-boosting hormones that help us burn calories faster, keep high energy levels, and stay stronger and healthier.

But when the thyroid is sluggish, the metabolism slows down, the body becomes less efficient at burning calories (making us gain weight faster), our brain performance is reduced, and we feel tired all the time. If you have trouble losing weight, are constantly tired, and often have brain fog, chances are you have a sluggish thyroid, just like I did,” she explained.

I had never heard of “sluggish thyroid” before. I didn’t see how such a small organ could have such a significant impact on our health. But wanting to learn more, I asked her how she solved her sluggish thyroid problem.

“That’s exactly the question I asked my therapist. She told me that the key to having a high-functioning thyroid is to feed our thyroid with two essential ingredients for metabolic hormone production; iodine and L-Tyrosine.

These two ingredients are like the building blocks of the critical hormones that are secreted by the thyroid. When these ingredients are abundant, our thyroid produces many of these hormones, our metabolism speeds up, and we can burn fat much faster.

When our thyroid doesn’t have enough iodine and L-tyrosine, it becomes sluggish, and our whole body slows down. The consequence? We accumulate fat, feel tired, weak, unmotivated, and so on.”

She went on to explain how she was able to kickstart her metabolism with a plant-based formula recommended by her therapist. 

“Are you telling me that all my problems can be solved by taking these two ingredients?“ I asked sceptically.

“Well, it’s not that simple,” she said.

“First, it is important that these two ingredients come from natural sources, like plants for example. Second, studies have shown that it is also important to have another ingredient to boost the absorption of natural iodine by the thyroid. One of the most effective natural ingredients for this is guggul resin, according to my therapist.”

“And how do you get these ingredients?”

“My therapist recommended a natural formula called ThyroLux that is specially designed to boost a sluggish thyroid. This German formula contains these three ingredients – iodine, L-tyrosine, and guggul resin – in optimal amounts to boost thyroid activity and accelerate the metabolism naturally.”

“I’ve been taking it every morning for 3 months now, and I’ve never burned fat so fast. I feel my metabolism is much faster– I have more energy, my hair is healthier, and I don’t have those sudden food cravings anymore. In short, I feel like I have a healthier, fitter body. And as you can see, it has quite an impact on my mood!”

When she told me this, I was curious to learn more. I know my friend struggled a lot before getting in top shape, and if it worked for her, maybe it could work for me.

I looked at the Sensilab website, the manufacturer that produces the ThyroLux formula, and saw that they have excellent reviews and millions of customers.

This is not the first time I have tested a product like this, but I decided to try it out of curiosity. The product also offers a money-back guarantee, so I thought: worst case if it doesn’t work, I’ll get my money back.

My friend told me it was advisable to take ThyroLux for three months for the best results. I then took their subscription plan, which offers a pack of ThyroLux monthly at a 50% discount. I received the product a few days later.

I started to take this formula every morning after breakfast. And I must say that the results were surprising, and in a good way.

I can honestly say that I got my life back thanks to this formula

So what is my opinion on this product?

I’ll be honest: nothing much happened during the first few days. I didn’t see any particular effects. But after a week, I started to see a real difference.

First, I noticed that I had much more energy than usual. Even without coffee, I was much less tired than expected, and my productivity at work increased. Of course, I get tired sometimes, especially when I don’t sleep much.

But after taking this formula, I’d say I have good energy levels most of the time. The second thing I have noticed is that my sudden cravings for junk food have almost disappeared.

Being less hungry than before has naturally led me to eat healthy and balanced meals almost every day.

After several months, I lost a lot of weight without even realising it, thanks to my healthier lifestyle and newly found motivation. I have also noticed that my skin looks better, and my hair looks healthier than before.

In conclusion, I can objectively say that this natural formula has helped me a lot because since I’ve been taking it every morning, I feel like I have gotten my life back.

Now, don’t get me wrong: It is not a miracle formula because it takes a while to work. But if you are overweight, tired, heavy and weak, I recommend trying this formula to boost your metabolism.

It may sound silly, but sometimes a little habit like this can make a huge difference in our well-being and lives. This has been the case for me, and I hope it will be the case for you too.

Best regards,

Petra
