Preach, brother.

I was never really obese, but I was overweight. It is worth knowing your actual body composition, not just total weight.

At 36 years of age, I had 24 per cent body fat. Nowadays, at 42, I have 17 per cent body fat. My weight is actually almost the same (+- 5 lbs).

But health and overall wellbeing is very different. Getting rid of high blood pressure and knee pain is a huge improvement.
