In this episode of the Big Fellas Podcast, Darren Ockenden shares his rollercoaster journey with weight—a story that starts with hip surgery in his school years, which led to him losing his fit, healthy, and popular self.
Darren opens up about how he never quite managed to get his weight under control, even as he built a successful career in the police force. Things took a turn for the worse in his 30s with the pressures of parenthood and battling mental health issues, causing his weight to spiral out of control.
But Darren didn’t let it end there. After reaching a breaking point, he took drastic action with a surgery, shedding 6 and a half stone (91 lbs). Now, with his weight back in his hands, Darren is determined to continue his journey toward better health and fitness. His story is one of resilience, hard choices, and the realization that sometimes you need a little help to get back on track.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re losing control, Darren’s story will remind you that it’s never too late to take it back. Subscribe for more real talk and inspiration from the Big Fellas!
