Hello.... I am Wes Lawrence. I was an overweight child growing up, 315 lb offensive lineman in high school, and a stress eater.
I have lived a rollercoaster life of unhealthyness. I dropped to 265 lbs my sophmore year of college in 2005 and then gradually climbed to 387 lbs by 2012. In 2013, I started what I called a starvatiin diet (restricting calories to less than 1000 per day) and began walking and eventually running. I at first lost down to 280 and winter hit... gained back to 315.
I then began again and started running everyday. I was finally at a decent weight. At my lowest, 209 lbs. I was able to bike 30 miles and run half marathons at 9 minute mile paces. This was 2015-2016.
My wife and I had our first child, a son. I slowly slacked dieting(going back to the old foods), got injured while running, and various o
