Its been a challenge I was 270lb in 204 my height is 5ft 6" and was getting bigger food was my best friend it became a serious addiction. My body could not handle the weight a friend came to see me and said you are getting too fat while quite painful he was a true friend and I decided to start the journey. I went on a complete change of diet eating nothing processed I was already a vegetarian and decided to go vegan which does have its own problems. I started walking 6 miles a day the weight was coming of. I lost 100lb in a year I now weigh 154lb as of today. I still find it very challenging maintaining I just love to eat the wrong things but have trained myself to eat the right things without being to harsh on myself. I became a fanatic in weighing myself people told me not too but for me it helped me keep a check on myself. I just hope I can keep it up as of now all is goodemzlfukhyxh0.jpg

    Thanks everyone for your kind words, it was quite a challenge to control the mind as I just love eating. I still find it hard from time to time maintaining but just keep reminding myself nothing comes to us without hard work and dedication.

    Thank you

    People used to ask me do you actually feel different I always found it hard to admit I do feel different so much better.

    Nice work! I'm glad you feel better...I always feel bad when my overweight friends and family complain about their aches and pains. I know that losing weight would solve so much of that but that is a hard thing to hear when you are not on that path!

    I have a good friend who is seriously over weight like I was we used to encourage each other to over eat I now see his suffering I feel so bad too. I suppose hen its the right time hopefully before its too late he will do something to help himself one thing for sure there is no secret just hard work and perseverance.
