And thanks and you're killing it still with your lifting too! :)

Today, woke up with the scales being bang on 112kg. Which means since I started this journey Im now down 40kg (which is about 88pounds to those that use that measurement).

And as with the social anxiety. Ahh fun bits. I also have been obese as long as I...
