Hi, my name is Phil. I’m in my early 40s, I’ve been fat for more than 35 years, and I’ve been a diagnosed diabetic for over 10 (probably actually diabetic closer to 15, but I rarely went to the doctor in my 20s).
I don’t want to be fat anymore. I don’t want to be diabetic anymore. I want to see my daughter grow up and reach adulthood. And there are much better odds (both for her and for me) if she doesn’t call me “Mr Big Tummy” for good reason.
I am documenting my process to reach this goal here.
