My Prom Date Called Me 'Fat' - So I Got Ripped | BRAND NEW ME

27-YEAR-OLD Anthony Bayer from Queensland, Australia has lost a spectacular 115lbs after being rushed to the hospital. Anthony says his weight issues started in high school, using food as a coping mechanism and consuming over 1,000 calories a day. “Food was an addiction, every time I was stressed out I would eat. I would consume three pizzas, three bottles of coke and three packs of Magnum ice cream in one sitting,” he told Truly. Weighing in at 330lbs at his heaviest, Anthony would avoid social gatherings, spending his days at home alone playing video games. “I had absolutely no confidence, I thought I was going to be alone for the rest of my life,” he added. And his fears of ending up alone really intensified when he was stood up for his high school prom. “I asked the most attractive girl in school to be my date and she said yes. I made myself look like a million dollars and knocked on her door on the day of the formal. She started laughing and said I was too fat to fit through the door, at that moment I realised it was just a big joke, I was set up.” A few months later, Anthony woke up in the middle of the night suffering from heart palpitations. Rushed to the hospital, the doctor explained to him that his irregular heartbeat was down to the pressure put on his body by the excess weight. On the verge of type 2 diabetes, Anthony was urged to make a drastic change in his diet. Anthony said: “Something just changed inside me, it was the turning point for the transformation of my life.” Researching healthy diets, going for walks and eventually joining a gym, Anthony quickly started losing the extra pounds. Losing 115lbs in total, Anthony now weighs in at a healthy 215lbs. “My transformation changed me mentally, now I’m confident, willing to go out there and live my life to the fullest."
