Inspirational weight loss stories! We love them at Ukmedix News and the latest one to come our way concerns Mr. Anthony D. Holland who has lost over 150lb. in weight (if not more) over the last year. He said that he wasn't aware what his peak weight was because he stopped weighing himself as he approached 400lb. but with a weight of 223lb. now he is not giving up and is determined to get back to his previous slim self.

Anthony said that his weight caused him a lot of depression, sickness and helplessness. Among some of his most humiliating moments he talks about how he had to pay double for a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon, had to pay a fortune for specially made clothes which never really fit him properly anyway and probably the thing that really made him hit rock bottom was when he sat on the toilet and it broke because of his weight. (No pun intended).
Anthony said two things which are very relevant and they are that he was “determined” and that he was going to “beat this”. People wanting to lose weight should remember that determination is the number one requirement for weight loss. Yes, the healthy diet and exercise can help, yes, weight loss medication can help too but without determination you’ll soon start to put on weight again.
Anthony wasn’t always overweight but started to put on weight as he got older and when he left school. The freedom of being allowed to eat what he wanted when he wanted didn’t do him any favours and he was a fast food junkie for years. When people talk to him about how he lost weight he talks about diet and exercise and he is immensely proud of the fact that he won the contest for losing the most weight in his local gym. The manager of the gym Mr. Cori Mahoney says that he is a great motivation for other members of the gym to keep going and that he is actually setting such a good example that even the staff at the gym are pushed to meet his standards. Antony says that the “fire is burning.”
People on a healthy vibe not only help themselves lose weight but also get their peers to be more body conscious too, which is why every member of Anthony’s family now has a gym membership and he expects them to attend.
