Stokey Pete Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Totally off modelling topics here. As the lockdown in the UK really but during the summer of 2020. I found myself at the heaviest I’ve ever weighed in. A combination of laziness, gluttony, and depression was taking a firm grip on my health. After a very blunt and stark warning from my Doc’ of “continue like this and you’ll die”, I knew drastic action was needed. So, fitness coach hired. Nutritional expertise sought. Gym (while it was open) joined. Much soul searching, dietary habits changed, and very tentative steps taken on the treadmill and on the streets. Fast forward from the summer to now, I have now hit a milestone of 100lb in body fat lost. It’s a monumental amount of weight shifted, and I just wanted to shout it from the rooftops because I’m so stoked about it.

New clothes??? Not yet, I’m still a ways off where I need to be. I promised myself a whole new wardrobe when I get to that target. In the meantime, my wardrobe now consist solely of adjustable sportswear. Out2gtcha, J.C., Martinnfb and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Well done man! That indeed deserves to be shouted from the roof tops! Its tremendous amount to shave off, and knowing how out of shape I personally am atm, I know what a monumental effort it must have been.
