Meet: @ethanstill95 I began my weight loss journey at 476 lbs in July ‘16! I smoked 2 packs of cigs, dipped snuff, & drank a 30 pack of beer daily. I had even reached the point of debating whether or not to end my life. I knew that this was not the life I wanted to live, & that a change had to be made. I began working out & meeting for consultation with a bariatric surgeon & nutritionist. Over the first 10 months, I lost my 1st 100 lbs. This milestone happened the day of my VSG. After surgery I began working out as soon as I was medically cleared to do so, & became addicted to the process of bettering myself; both mentally & physically. Over the last 3 years, I’ve lost 241 lbs., and am set to step on stage at my 1st ever bodybuilding/physique show June 29th! I love using this platform to share positivity and inspiration to those looking for that little spark to fuel their life-changing transformation To me, body positive means working day in & day out to create the best version of yourself, and remaining proud, yet never satisfied of your results. Starting tip: Take action. Get up and get moving, no matter how small. Take that first step towards changing your life. It’s worth it. . . 📌 Wlstories is a SUPPORT GROUP.
