I'm 39 and I've struggled with my weight since i was about 30. I was a hardcore drug addict into 27 and within 3 years i went from 160 to 260. Then i quit smoking and went to about 280 within 3 months. Then a divorce and went to 314.
Then i got really lonely and one day i went for a walk. Then the next. Then a run. Within 10 months i lost 80 pounds. Then i fell in love and got remarried. Then injured my knee. Then gained all the weight back and even more. I've been yo yo'ing ever since.
Thanks for sharing bro, I am glad you found love :) that is the best thing that can happen
