In 2014 I weighed 17st 7lbs, wearing a size 22, eating 6000 calories a day. I have never feared the gym, however I was conscious of my size and appearance. Today in 2018 I weigh 12st, wearing a size 12 and consume 1500 calories a day. I train 6 days a week (personal choice), but the gym is my outlet. Through consistent training I have achieved a body I love in strength and physique and have gained knowledge on the mechanics of how my body functions. Conscious choices could be all that you need, a steer in the right direction.
It’s about gaining control with your physical and mental appearance and most of all being happy.
