Adrian Stohr,<br />

37<br />

Redhill,<br />

Surrey<br />

In May 2011 Adrian's father died of multiple organ failure due to diabetes<br />

and obesity at the age of 58. Adrian had only been back in touch which his<br />

father for 5 years after not speaking for over 18 years. At the time Adrian<br />

was over 24 stone. After the funeral Adrian decided he needed to turn his<br />

life around, otherwise he would follow in his fathers, and indeed<br />

grandfathers, footsteps and die prematurely. His Dr told him the<br />

devastating news that if he didn't loose weight he'd be diabetic within<br />

months and was at high risk of a heart attack or a stroke. Adrian swapped<br />

burgers for salads and lost a staggering 8 stone in one single year. He's<br />

now 8 and a half stone lighter. He wants other obese people to know it can<br />

be done and although he still has a few more stone to go, is fitter and<br />

healthier then he's been for years and is looking forward to running the<br />

VLM.<br />
