Car crash inspired my 211lb weightloss - brand new me

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
A FORMERLY obese man weighing over 400lbs has lost half his body weight - and now runs half marathons and competes in bodybuilding. At his heaviest Jordan Grahm, from LA, California, weighed in at 421lbs. Doctors told Jordan he was eating himself to death but he ignored the warnings, depressed and determined to keep eating, because of a tragedy early on in his life. Overweight since he was a little boy, by the time he was 13, Jordan estimates he was 100lbs bigger than everyone else his age. His mother would encourage Jordan to lose weight but she unexpectedly died in her sleep when Jordan was just 14. Angry with the injustice of his mother-s passing, Jordan-s depression propelled him to drugs, alcohol and food to numb his pain. He would go to the drive thru at least twice a day and consume 10, 000 calories a day. If it hadn-t been for a major car crash at 3am one March morning, Jordan might have not been alive today. It was the wakeup call he needed to realise his life was worth living. In a year, he lost 100lbs. At his lowest, Jordan weighed 209lbs - losing half of his body weight. After undergoing excess skin removal surgery Jordan started bodybuilding and now weighs 250lbs

This story just touched my heart!
I can totally relate to this guy from what he-s been through, and the motivation it took by having a near death experience to change your life. Just encourages others to always believe in yourself and never give up hope.

My favourite episode. I was over 400lbs - couldn-t tell you the exact number, as no scale went that high. I-m now 275lbs and still loosing. My goal is 200lbs - when I-m there I-ll look into skin surgery. It-s hard work, but very rewarding.

His moms biggest wish was for her son to live a healthy and happy life and give that to him. I feel loved ones in heaven can arrange things for the loved ones on earth. He had a second change and it saved him!

All these profiles are still heart attacks waiting to happen. Lots of muscles and lots of clogged arteries. Guaranteed. If you aren-t eating whole vegan foods you-re arteries are clogged. Science people.

I had lost 70 lbs and gained about 20 pounds of muscle which left me with a ton of loose skin. I had loose skin surgery like you and my confidence is way higher. Your story is inspiring.

I teared up when you said your mother and BlackBerry had passed away. They are looking down on you from Heaven, and I'm 100 percent sure they're very, very, VERY proud of you. -

What a sweet man! I wish you all of the happiness in this world! Congrats on everything! You look fabulous but more importantly you have become a phenominal human being.

Ironically, it was probably because of his massive weight that he survived that car crash with so few injuries. It-s like being covered in 300lbs of bubble wrap.

Sorry man but your not gonna be under 6 feet 250 pounds with a set of abs without using PEDS. You-d have to be like 7-5 to be that weight and lean naturally.

Have you ever seen a -fat acceptance- video for a man? Me neither.
Men realize that the world doesn't owe them anything.
