To answer your closing question: I bumped into my co-founder through my blog. We where both writing about startups and bumped into each other in person at a local event. I told him about the idea of starting a startup and he responded ’send me an idea if you have it’. After sending the idea he made the prototype in a weekend. For me that was a good signal of somebody that has a similar style of working. Only later I discovered that we also have complementary skills, so I lucked out. Big time.

My top weights was 97kg. I’m 1.75cm, so that’s a BMI 32,4. Nowadays I weigh 75/76kg. Still some small KG’s to go there.

But this is how I do it.

I take my time. Not just to take it easy, but to learn. Having a healthy weight is about balance. For every person this is difference. Depends on your routine, kind of job and above all what you eat.

My weight loss hasn’t been steady, it goes down 5kg then up 3kg again. Then I loose again. etc. This is because I experiment with the balance between eating and exercise / daily routines. For example there is a big difference for me when I use the car or public transport. The lines are that thin.

Before I didn’t like gyms too. I still don’t like them that much, but it’s heavily depending on the gym you go to. I have now a small gym with a lot of social people and I love going there to work out. However my schedule is killing me too. So it’s not that often right now. Need to free more time for that.
