A young man has shared pictures of his amazing weight loss and how he reached the decision he had to do this.
Taking to his social media page, the young man identified as Felix Okoro explained how wanting to be healthy, strong and happy led to his weight loss journey.
Felix wrote ;
I’ve always though weight loss was going to be a horrible and stressful experience.
I wanted to be healthy, strong, most especially happy for who I was. Don’t get me wrong, someone can be on the plus side and be happy for who they are. But for me it was hard for me to be ‘fat and happy’. When you’re unhappy with yourself and how you look, you would try to change yourself, in order to accept yourself. People would tell me “I like that you are happy with the way you look” and I’ll reply with a smile “Yes I am” but deep down I knew I wasn’t.
I started walking for at least 1 hour a day before my friend told me of a final year project on weight loss and I decided to give it a try. We used dance cardio by #keairalashae for the workout and I continued with the workouts even after the project ended. I started my journey in 2019 with 150 kg and 8 months later, I weigh 90kg

“Some Naval officers can be away for months. Dont compare them with that photographer that covers weddings and sees you all week.
“Because he sees you every day doesnt mean he loves you more than the one who works hard and sees you once in a week…
