mattjosephdiaz: It’s Transformation Tuesday and I feel inspired...



mattjosephdiaz:

It’s Transformation Tuesday and I feel inspired and excited. 

It’s been over 6 years since this journey started. I’ve been losing weight and getting healthy for over a quarter of my life, and it’s all adding up within the next few months. If all works out as planned, my surgery will be happening VERY soon and is going to be filmed for a television show so I can share my story with all the people who so graciously care. 

I can start giving back to help a few people like me. I can finally close the chapter on this journey from a 500 pound boy with no self esteem to a man less than half that weight who loves himself, and start the next chapter on my journey to teach these ideals to others. 

The excess skin has been a pain this summer, because the heat has made it tough for me to do anything too physically strenuous where I’ll be sweaty, or I’m at risk for uncomfortable irritations. But it’s cooling down now, and if I’m going to start this new journey soon I’m going to end this one in the best shape possible. 

 I’m so nervous. I’m so scared. I’m so excited.

Thought it would be a good idea to reblog this post again because it makes the perfect accompaniment to the awesome video below.
