Sal Reedus, known on social media as @journeywithsal, is a content creator from Ohio who decided to transform his life after reaching 329 kilos and facing three serious medical scares in less than two years.
After being hospitalized for health-related problems, he began documenting his process on social media as a way to motivate himself and stay accountable.
Since then, he has lost 226 pounds, about 102 kilos, by training, swimming, playing basketball, and even taking part in races.
Although he still has a long way to go, he says he has no intention of stopping because, for him, the alternative was to keep putting his life at risk.
