0.000 HBDI Lost 40 pounds from Day-Trading Crypto
 My name is Wilfred and here's my story. When I bought my first bitcoin back in mid-2015, I was 190lb. Back then bitcoin was around $250 and nothing really happened for over a year so I didn't really pay close attention and my weight kinda stayed the same. Fast forward to early 2017 when bitcoin hit $1,000 , i started pulling all-nighters reading up on bitcoin news and discovering other cryptocurrencies. I was going in and out of position multiple times a day, sometimes a hour. My life was completely 100% consumed by crypto. I stopped working out and being an ectomorph my weight started to come off extremely quickly. I went from 190lb to around 150lb in first 6 months of 2017. Everyone I met thought i had an eating disorder. But in fact I was eating the same amount if not more than before. Every time bitcoin or Ether hit an all-time-high, my heart was pounding hard all night, really affected my sleep schedule. I was always exhausted physically and mentally from checking CoinMarketCap once every couple minutes. Then one day while I was crossing a parking lot, I felt asleep all of a sudden and was 2 feet away from being hit by a car. That was my wake-up call. I just realized that I had sacrificed my health all this time and that my life could have ended in a split second. So i decided to delete all crypto-related apps on my phone, store every coin I had into the Trezor. From that point on I've never checked crypto prices more than twice a day and my life has started to come back to me. The biggest lesson is that the world doesn't revolve around crypto or money, and there are many things that are more important like health, family. friends, hobbies, etc.
