With our Amazing Losers game on the horizon, we’re spending the days leading up to kick off meeting the lads who’ll be pulling on the shirts in this year’s game at Walsall FC. We head south for our latest player, Mark Hughes from Sunbury!
Tell us more about your initial reasons for joining MAN v FAT
I joined MAN v FAT to change my lifestyle, to be round people that are like myself and not to be judged. That’s what I have found at my club Sunbury.
If you could go back in time and talk to the version of you at the start of your weight loss efforts, what would you tell them about the changes you’ve experienced?
I would go back and say to him keep at it, because what’s coming will be the best version of you. I’d tell him how much happier you will be and how much family life has changed, as well as where you will get with your mental health.
Who would you like to thank for their help in your progress?
I would like to thank my wife Emma for being at my side in my journey to becoming a better me. I’d also like to thank my team Largentina for being huge supporters of my journey and a huge shout out to everyone at the Sunbury club for their support.
What are your future hopes around your health and wellbeing?
Just to stay healthy and support others.
How much are you looking forward to the game in May?
Really excited – I’ve worked hard to get here and it was one of my main goals to achieve when I started MAN v FAT.
