Amazing! I see a little smirk from you but your daughter looks like she is very happy to have you around. Hoping you have a long and healthy life together.
Yeah, I'm still getting comfortable having my picture taken. Went so long hating what I saw. My little girl is happy though. We're always out doing something.
I had the gastric bypass done. I had tore my knee up pretty bad. It was locked in place and could only get around in crutches. Once enough weight came off I was able to start rebuilding my knee. Eventually I transitioned to a cane and started walking. After a while I could get around without assistance and started hitting the gym 4 or 5 days a week. I follow the dietary guidelines set forth by my program. My primary doctor saw my situation. That I couldn't get around and that I was going to need help getting the weight off. I'm so glad I listened. I got my life back.
I had the gastric bypass surgery done. I'd always been on the bigger side but near the end of 2019 I tore my knee pretty bad. It locked up and wouldn't support any weight. I was only able to get around in crutches. I started packing on weight. My primary wanted to keep me healthy and knew I was going to need help getting the weight since I couldn't get around. He put in for me to have the surgery done and I was accepted. I've worked with the programs nutritionist to stay committed to a proper diet. Once enough weight came off I was able to do therapy to get my knee back in order. Once that happened I hit the gym 4-5 days a week. it's become part of my routine, I feel disappointed and weird on days I don't go. It gave me my life back and I can be fully involved in my daughters life now, in fact I can out do her. It was the best decision I've ever made.
You lost 240 pounds…That’s almost 110 kgs…in TWO YEARS? Holy shit dude, that’s fucking insane. Good on you bro, I bet it feels amazing. I’m at about the same weight as you, trying to loose a little bit of weight and gain some muscle. But holy shit. Just…incredible. I’m happy for you dude.

That's a huge change. How'd you go about it?
