Hi,
My Name is not important but My story is. I was your average "husky" kid on school and In Middle School I was around 5'10" 185lbs in wrestling club. I also "was" going to be on the football team until they did not warn me about wrapping feet with new cleats...So i tore off the back of my heal (huge blister). Around Summer after 7th grade I was put on a medication that caused my weight to go from the 185 to around 330 in about 6 months, this is when I was diagnosed with Diabetes and Hypertension. I Was also in a Very bad auto accident about 3 years ago and have had a lot of leg troubles due to the injuries. About 7 months ago my Endocrinologist(diabetic dr) Advised me to try a strict Diet that was high protien and low cal/carb and Surprising to myself and others I was able to stick with it. Recently I have been altering the diet to add more variety w'o adding extra calories or losing protein. I am proud to say that Between my faith and this diet I have now Lost over 100lbs in that 7 months w'o out any health risks. In fact its just the opposite, I no longer need to take ANY medications for Diabetes or Hypertension . I am currently a member of a local fitness center and work out for around 1-2 hrs about 3-4 time per week. I went from 3 and 4x shirts and 52 pants to L and XL (some are L are loose even) annd size 38 pants. My main issue now is that I need Advice on Workout routines that I can do at the fitness Center I use. I will post a request for advice in the appropriote forum area soon. Thanks for reading and remember If a stubborn lazy guy Like me can boost energy and Confuse the neighbors ( they literally thought my wife switched guys) then ANYONE can do it. If you set yourself to it and don't give up YOU WILL SUCCEED!
Have a nice Day!
