Health Problems
Anthony was at risk for illnesses such as gallstones, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and triglycerides, coronary artery disease (CAD), stroke, and sleep apnea, among other disorders, while he was still a child. Overweight risks include liver disorders, hip development issues (slipped capital femoral epiphysis), or bone growth in the legs. But why didn’t he instantly attempt to lose weight?
Out Of Control
Anthony shared, “I sank into a major depression after that, which lasted years after high school ended. I never thought anyone could love me and that I’d be alone forever.” And the more he became depressed, the more he found solace in his food. Anthony continued, “I didn’t know how to eat properly and didn’t care. I was addicted to fast food.”
