My path to getting RIPPED

Here's where I started. Yo-yo for most of my late twenties but this about sums it up. October 2011 was enough for me,
One part exercise mixed with one part healthy diet decisions and my journey started.

After a few weeks in, I started noticing some progress. The more I noticed progress, the more I became "hungry."

However my hunger was not for food . . .

I wanted more progress . . .

And more . . .

I reached my "sweetspot."
I'm not going to lie. It took a lot of hard work and days I just didn't feel like putting in the time or effort fitness-wise or diet-wise. I'm still a work in progress.
