(apologies for mistakes as I’m doing this on my phone)
So as February 25th and my 30th birthday loomed I was approached by my tattoo artist who said he wanted to do a full body photo shoot of my work within the next 12 months. Now for context, I’ve never been massively overweight but I’ve always stood out due to my height and size.
For reference I was 6ft 4in (195cm) at the age of 16 and I’ve never worn smaller than a 34-36 waist and an XL since then.
I realised at this point that I wasnt happy with my body and needed to do something about it. 1 of my closest and oldest friends is a fitness coach so I reached out to him for help. Needless to say, he knew my lifestyle and said that he wasn’t willing to take me on as a client because he didn’t think I’d stick to anything. He was probably right. I also didn’t want to pay a lot of money a month for something I wasn’t dedicated to.
He gave me the basic information and told me to go away for 10 weeks and see what I was able to do on my own.
So here we are, 10 weeks later and 11.5kg down. He’s now agreed to take me as a client and best of all, he’s told me that he’ll coach me for free.
This is probably going to get lost in this subreddit but I just wanted to share with people how proud I am of myself. Not just for sticking to this, but for actually making a massive different to my own life and mental health. I’ve not felt this confident in myself ever.
