Who is that in that picture? No that can’t be me!

In September 2019 I looked at a picture of my beautiful daughter's wedding and was shocked at what I looked like. I wore size 44 pants and XXXXL shirt size, weighed 115kg and had four chins. At that moment I changed my mind-set. I began walking a little each day and counting my calories everyday. I started using the 10,000 Steps app at the beginning of 2021 in January and set a goal of 7 million steps by the end of 2021. I broke down each day what I needed to accomplish. I accomplished the goal and went further and finally finished with 7,504,499. I now weigh 84kg. I wear size 32 pants and large shirts, and blood pressure is perfect for a 60 year old and resting pulse is down to 54.
