Bell Let’s Talk Day was on January 28th, and Regina Leader-Post sports editor, Rob Vanstone talked alright. A few years ago, Rob never spoke to another living soul about his challenges with mental illness (not even his wife), and suddenly he was telling everyone.
Unsure how people would respond, Rob didn’t hold back. He put it all out there, including his recent diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. On March 6, 2020 Rob weighed 252 pounds, and he struggled to walk for even a few minutes. On that day Rob made a decision to start being physically active, and he has not missed a day since.
Today, Rob has reached his goal of 180 pounds, and he continues to proudly shares his experiences with mental health. On this episode, hear how some of Rob’s greatest challenges have evolved into some of his greatest achievements. There are no more secrets for Rob, and there’s definitely no looking back.
