I'm here too tell you how i decided too get fit.
I am 19 going too collage, i am a super outgoing person and at times cocky and confident. I feel that way or i try too show it but not always true. Friends always wanting to go too the pool and beach, I wont go ill tell them " I hate the water or im not a beach type of person" , not true at all i love the ocean but my weight holds me back when i see my two best friends take their shirts off with a fit good body and i wont do the same i have stretch marks and "man boobs". Im gonna be completely honest I want too be more confident too talk too girls but always my weight in the back of my mind. I play soccer and people tell me i have skilll the mentality too play the sport but they always say "you need too be faster" and "your missing that edge". I know its my weight i am fast for how big i am, I always say that i am like a chicken big on top light with my feet and quick with my feet. One night i saw the informercial for P90x and saw story after story and it just seemed like any other marketing scheme, till a story of a guy same as me as big as me and i connected with him and felt if he can do it, i can do it. Right after that went on youtube looked up more peoples journeys, and that when i knew i wanted too start mine. Its almost done with the firt week of p90x and i havent lost any pounds but i can see my arms are gaining muscle. What i felt i was struggling with was the portion sizes, what too eat, how many calories I'm taking , until i found my fitness pal which gave me a boost of confidence that know i knew this was a tool that will be very handy in my journey.
hope you enjoyed my entry and wish the best of luck too everyone achieving your goal
