One year down

On 2/23/21 - I woke up and realized I didn't remember going to sleep. As I shook the hangover off, the night prior came back to me. We've (most people who drink) all felt that hangover which turns us upside down, well, as I was experiencing that gem, a wave of disgust completely enveloped me. I was embarrassed for what I had become; weighing in at 415 lbs, the feeling of knowing I'm killing myself slowly and not doing anything about it chipped away at my soul. From that day, I set out to make changes. Small changes that if I kept them consistent, would have a rather large impact on me down the road. Lonnng story short, I swapped my diet, formed new habits and kept with everything. 172 pounds in one year is what it amounted to. I'm not at my goal weight, but I can say that I feel like a new person. Friends who I've not met with in a year or more are having troubles recognizing me. I have muscles in places I never have before and even have 4 ab muscles showing (the last 2 are the hardest from what I am told). If it weren't for my wife being as supportive as she was, this would have been quite a lot harder. The first 100lbs were all diet, the next 70 I started to work out. Just wanted to tell my story in a condensed form. If there are any questions, feel free to ask! Take care.
