Summary

After being told he was too big to ride a rollercoaster as a teen, Luke Pullen from South West London lost over five stone in just thirteen weeks—and is now ready to conquer the coasters with his sons. Once weighing over thirty-four stone and struggling to climb stairs, this pub manager turned his life around with medication, expert guidance, and sheer determination. Now hitting fifteen thousand steps a day and running again, he’s gearing up for a summer trip to Los Angeles to finally share the thrill with his boys—something he couldn’t do for twenty years.
