Matt Lowe

Forgot to post this pic earlier. Words can’t explain how happy I’ve been being able to fit clothes the I have owned for years and years.

When I was over 600 pounds I literally had a few pairs of sweats and like one big shirt.

When I put this one on and looked in the mirror I felt amazing about all the hard work I put in and keep putting in. Even despite my crazy hair in the morning haha

Man, not to just always be bragging about this weight loss but damn… this is the most present I’ve ever been and thus the happiest I’ve been about progress.

But on top of all that people keep coming up to me at my pickleball club and asking if I’ve lost a lot of weight because they swear I’m way smaller than I was a few months ago.

Feels good to get compliments but it also feels so good to actually absorb the kind words…. And to even to give myself some props too!

What’s up guys!! I was interviewed for a podcast where I shared all details of my life finding balance between my mental and physical health.

Give it a listen on any podcast platforms. I provided the Apple link on this post.

I saw myself in a video where I won a tv in a company raffle. It was a full body shot and I actually was like “damn, look at all the hard work I’ve done to lose weight”

Then I started waving in excitement in the video and my big, fat ass bingo wings started flapping out my shirt for everyone to see. I didn’t notice at the time so I’m just now seeing this watching the video.

Surprisingly…. I am still not down on myself about this as it shows the hard work I’ve done and one day I’ll have it surgically removed.

But… still fu***ng embarrassing! Hahaha
