Story: In December 2017, my marriage ended suddenly with my ex leaving (I won't go into specifics but it rhymes with heating) and sent me to the lowest point of my life. I had already started trying to lose weight and had lost about 5kg at the time but being depressed and upset led me to not eating for a month. I looked at food as the enemy and the sight of food made me sick so I drunk water only for a month till my brother stepped in and forced me to eat something.
I started at 305kg (672lbs) and I'm currently around 160-165kg (352lbs-363lbs) at 6'4. Majority of my weightloss was done with keto, intermittent fasting and making sure I was in a calorie deficit. Cardio from walking my dog and gym 6 days a week got me to this point.
I'm now booked in for skin removal surgery in November this year, upper body only since it's a 12 hour surgery. I'm super excited to start a new phase of my life and properly get into powerlifting.

All in all I just want to say that I always thought I was too far gone and that losing weight wasn't worth trying again. But I did it, I stuck to it with the determination to just be a better me. If you feel like you can't take me as proof as you definitely can. If you started, you're already succeeding.
