Hello everyone, thanks so much for having me.

I wanted to share a bit of my story. I kicked off my journey on my 40th birthday, weighing over 28 stone, barely able to walk, out of work, and honestly in a really dark place. I knew I needed to do something drastic or I was going to lose myself completely.

I bought one month of Manjaro but couldn’t afford to keep going. Then—total YOLO moment—I stumbled across Reta and decided to give it a shot.

Fast forward 8 months… I’ve already lost 5 stone. I don’t take painkillers anymore, I’ve stopped drinking, and over the last few weeks I’ve smashed more than 96 km in steps in just four days. I now work as a bin man, walking around 14 miles a day, and I’m stronger than I’ve ever been in my life.

Reta has genuinely changed everything for me. It’s not an exaggeration to say it’s saved my life.

Ive tried coming off 2 times now and every time I do I gain weight, slowly old habbits crop up, I had a couple of breaks which kinda reset me but I now am gonna stick till I reach my goal. I have reached the limit of where I can go from tiktok and google and I realised there is likely a group of smart people who I can learn from and continue to inprove my health.

thanks for reading Hello again.

Deano
