In this episode, I talk to Brad Jenson, Owner & CEO KeyNutrition, on how deeper aspects of my extreme 190 lb weight-loss. This is my story of leaving professional soccer, spiraling into addiction, gaining 210 lbs in a year to then breaking addiction and completely transforming my life.
My journey starts in 2007, in the best shape of my life playing professional soccer in Brazil. A year later with the death of dreams, I was 356 lbs. (+212 lbs in a year, yes you read that right). It took me a year to lose 150 lbs through extreme dieting and unsustainable methods.
Fall from grace
From there I spiraled into 5 years of crippling addiction, self-neglect and depression that led to attempted suicide.
Fast forward to 2014, life brought to my knees after losing absolutely everything from financial wealth to the love and support of those who cared deeply for me. This was the time that I realized.
Rise from the ashes
I began piecing my life together with the grit and determination to pull myself out of the mess that I created. I knew it would be the hardest thing I ever did.
It took me a year and a half to torch 190 lbs and I now stand 5 half years sober, living intentionally in this lifestyle change.
