When i looked into my wife's eyes, I realized if i keep going down this path i could lose years of my life. Years i want with her. My family is what made me decide to change.

    I just want to stay awesome as I age. I see so many of my peers letting themselves go and falling apart. I gotta keep it together. (*)

    You know this is totally going to sound vain and horrible. I want to be sexy. I want to be able to wear a sleeveless shirt and not feel as if the world is staring at my arms. I want to wear a bathing suit and not feel uncomfortable.

    My mirror doesn't lie and my clothes are so tight. Also I have a hard time breathing.
  • I can't get in front of my crew and tell them they need to be on shape when I am obviously overweight myself. Another thing Thursday hit me was when I went to see the doctor and the slip that was given to me said obese. I knew I ed getting bigger but that put a more realistic word to how I have let myself go. A week later I got a call about my blood test and am one point away from prediabetic. It's time to change and look good and feel good.
