A local chef is getting a lot of attention as he undergoes a weight loss journey.
Derrick Bona, from Eastern Passage weighed about 600lbs, but after a fall on the road, had him unable to get back up, he decided it was time for a change.
As the pounds come off; he posts the progress on twitter.
This got international attention including a tweet from Arnold Schwarzenegger who said he’s ‘got this.’
Bona is now down 55lbs.
His ultimate goal is to be able to sit in a seat, not only at a Blue Jays game, feat also he wasn’t able to do before, but at his son’s high school graduation this year.
People told me to offer you some encouragement, but you don’t need any. You’ve got this, so I’m really just sharing your tweet to inspire everyone else. I’m proud of you. https://t.co/v9wrh8VfIN
