After heart issues and covid made me fall back into my old ways, I am finally back on track. M/24/5'11" SW:320 CW:234.2 GW:190

Over the course of the last 4 years I decided to finally take my health into account. In 2016, I went from 320 pounds to 295. I maintained 295 with some fluctuations until I moved to college in the fall of 2018. From the fall of 2018 to the fall of 2019 I went from 295 to 238 with massive help from my roomate (fitness and strength training) and a complete 180 diet change. In the fall of 2019 I suffered some heart issues and was hospitalized. I was told no activity until the heart specialist could fully come in and look at me. Then Covid hit.

I was eventually cleared but I went from 238 to 270 in the span of almost a year. I was able to get down to 264 and just maintained it for a while. I felt like I was in a slump and just stayed at this weight thinking I was destined to be heavy forever. Something hit me this year and I decided now was the time to try again. I am now at a lower weight than I was in the fall of 2019. In almost 5 months, I went from 264 to 234.2.

I am astounded at myself and I couldn't be happier. This weight loss happened through caloric deficits and minimal exercises. For the next three months, I will be having a lot more free time on my hands and I plan to hit the weights again and just get into the best shape of my entire life. This newfound feeling of courage and hope is showing me the light at the end of the tunnel. If you've hit a slump, you can push through it. I believe in all of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
