Couple Celebrates Losing Over 190kg With Romantic Gym Snapshot

Losing weight can be a real motherf****r.  As much as it sounds like simple maths (burn more calories than you eat), it’s not always so easy.  Food is delicious.  Lazing around eating it is fun.  Nevertheless, one remarkable woman has celebrated an incredible weight-loss journey with her husband in apt fashion: A saucy gym snapshot!

Back in October 2015, newly-wed couple Danny and Lexi Reed were heavy.  Lexi tipped the scales at close to 220 kilos and Danny clocked in at close to 130 kilos.  Knowing something had to give when they went on a huge 8000 calorie binge, the two decided to make a bloody important change before they ate themselves to death.  It became their new year’s resolution the following January.  Two years later, Lexi is only about 80 kilos and Danny is about 85.

Talk about a bloody phenomenal effort.  A change like that is abso-f*****g-lutely the result of hard work, dedication and resilience.  What a top couple!  Lexi is of the firm opinion that without Danny she simply could not have shed so much weight.

‘This man has been by my side for the last 10 years and treated me no different at 485lbs than he does at 182lbs,’ she’s on the record as saying. ‘We all deserve to live a life we are in love with and have people around that make it worth living. We hope others will hear our story & decide not to give up!’!

It’s a really heart-warming story, and it goes to show how important the support of others is when you’re on a journey like this.

‘We didn’t have a meal plan, surgery, personal trainer, but what we did have was each other and the motivation within to work hard every single day.  We wanted to be parents in the future and live a longer life together.’

I dunno about you wankers, but I’m almost tearing up.  It’s bloody inspirational.  Amongst all the stories about people getting owned, getting roasted, getting triggered, this is the stuff that really matters.  Just look at Lexi’s final thought.

‘We may have lost the weight but we have grown closer together. Pound by pound, step by step, day by day — we have transformed our lives and molded our bodies into the people we’ve always wanted to be.’

I don’t know about you, but I kinda regret the donut I just ate now.  I know that I need to take a page out of these two’s book and get my own chunky ass back in the gym.

Just let me finish this beer and raise it in the general direction of a top sheila and a top bloke.  That’s you Lexi and Danny.  Top stuff.
