Appreciate you having me on. Thank you guys for pushing me on the gym topic. Eli took me to a couple gyms while we were out there and I’m typing this comment from a gym right now! Excited to see what I weigh by the next time our paths cross 😁💪🏻

at my heaviest I was north of 450 lbs (scale maxed out at 450, I weighed in at 'ERROR'), now down to 330 and still going. I don't think words can properly convey how freeing it feels to shed that kind of weight. The things you can do (again), the way you interact with the world. It's so worth the effort.

I was a 3 sport athlete and became a truck driver. I grew to 647 pounds. Over the last 3 years through exercise and intermittent fasting I weighed in this morning at 440. Good shit dude, keep pushing.

This is a heartbreaking story, but this guy's ability to not give up after every relapse is extremely commendable.

In July 2018, my Dr congratulated me on being morbidly obese, hypertensive and prediabetic. Since then, Ive list 100lbs fat and gained 25lbs muscle and Im now stronger at 54 than I was at 34. Stay strong Ethan, you got this! You'll never regret this journey.
