AT 557Ibs, Frank Markosek from Downers Grove, Illinois, always had ups and downs with his weight, issues with fast food and an overall food addiction. Frank told Truly: -It has taken almost 33 years to finally conquer that. But I finally feel like I have a grasp on that aspect of having self-control over what I eat nowadays. Frank always knew he had a problem with his weight but failed to address it. -I just wanted to be skinny and I was doing it all for the wrong reasons but it took until April of last year to finally get it all to click in my head. There were points when Frank thought he would never lose weight but during a bachelor weekend in Nashville, it really hit home to Frank just how much he needed to change his life around. -I went to Nashville with three of my friends and I didn-t want to go initially because I had a feeling that it wasn-t going to turn out well. I felt that my weight at that point was restricting me at so many things that even just walking up a flight of stairs was a problem. But I wanted to do it for my friend. Frank is now happy he went because, ultimately, it changed his life forever

This was awesome! Not that it matters, because weight loss is weight loss, but it-s more of a morbid curiosity. I wonder if he had bariatric surgery. My sister did, and she-s lost almost 250 lbs. my brother is 550-ish, and is getting married later this year. He is trying to eat better and exercise more, to get in shape for his big day. I-m hoping he gets healthy and continues his weight loss journey beyond the wedding date. I love watching and hearing about the transformation that people go through when they lose weight like this. For me it-s so surreal to hear about that minute people decide that they-re finally ready to get healthy. Keep up the good work!

Please let your emotions out, that why we overeat. We have to not internalize our pain. You have to feel it in order to heal it. Feelings are ok, it's ok to hurt, to cry, to be in pain. Your intense feelings won't last forever. They subside and eventually go away.
Congratulations on loosing the weight! It's so inspiring to see you happier! It's obvious that you have been working on the internal and the physical.

Congrats! You look awesome! I admire you for looking at yourself with the loose skin and looking at it as a trophy, a journey and reminder of where you have been and what you have succeeded at! You look absolutely awesome! You definitely got the mental aspect figured out! Congrats to you and the next phase of your new life-

I-m so sorry you have to go through that now but who wants to know a fact?
Fact: Reason why his body is like that now because when he was fat his veins popped out and that-s why his skin is like that.
I know it cause that has happened to my bro

I've watched several of these videos and felt inspired but when he stood on the scales and had beaten his target I felt so emotional, what a wonderful moment!

reply

Good for him I'm so happy for him. He's done an amazing job. I can't imagine how hard his journey must have been. Well done buddy your a super star

so inspiring! that shows that you don-t need a fancy gym to lose weight. baby steps are the way to go. i-m on my journey myself wish me luck!
reply

He did great and a lot of that weight that-s left is probably just the excess skin, and there-s not really a natural way to get rid of that.
reply

We have so many things that are similar. I was over 550lbs and now the same weight as you. I can sympathize with everything you said.
reply

Wow hes done so well, diets dont work you need to change how you view food and make it part of your life like he has done
reply

I love these stories! It's inspiring to see how people handle the struggles of life. Not people who want to be Ken and Barbie.
reply

The scale said 257 but he's actually smaller then that because the loose skin is probably another 20 or 30 pounds.
reply

You look phenomenal and I'm sure you feel even better! You seem to have a huge heart! Congratulations!
