Hi everyone
My name is Matt, I am 30 years old and am from New Zealand. I have been struggling with being over weight for years, and I have decided I am not going to be a slave to my weight any longer.
I developed an addiction to food in my early 20s and it has consumed my life ever since. I was always at a healthy weight before this point. Before I started eating emotionally I was 85kg at 6ft tall, I am now 122.9kg at 6 ft tall. Food has been my best friend and at the same time it has been my worst enemy. I can happily sit there and eat 2 large pizzas with a garlic bread and a 2 litre bottle of coke. If I walk into Burger King I wont order 1 burger, I will order 3 or 4. This is the way I have lived for years, and enough is enough.
I am here to share my journey with everyone and take inspiration from everyone. I officially began my new life on 24/11/14, at 122.9kg. My goal is to get down to 90 kg and maintain that weight for the rest of my life. I will update my progress on here every week.
Matt.
