Working to get back to my old marine self

brogers810

All my life I have always been the chubby kid. In 2008 I was around 205 lbs. I decided I needed a change in my life. So I made the choice and I joined the Marine Corps. I came out of the Marine Corps bootcamp at 160 lbs. I lost 45 lbs in only 3 months. At 5'11 I felt extremely skinnny and I felt great. After the course of 5 years I gained more weight to where I was close to 195 at the end of my enlistment. A few months later after getting out I jumped to 215. I know to some this may not sound like a lot, but to me.. I felt very self conscious. I started noticing that I couldnt fit into my clothes without it being tight and alot of my clothes I can't wear all together. I didn't have the drive to workout while I was in the Marines, but since I got out I really feel the motivation to do it. I am tired of being fat and I am a cheap *kitten* so I don't want to buy new clothes either.

I want to get to a good weight for me which is 185. I felt very comfortable at that weight and I dont think its too large of a goal to see impossible for me. So by 6 weeks I want to drop to 200. I know a lot about exercising so I know how to get there.. My problem is I love to eat. So I started cooking and using this website. My brother is about the same size as me and he lost all of his weight and dropped to 170 in a few months. No supplements. Just healthy eating and exercise. I think with the support from him and reading the success stories of others I can remain steadfast in my goals.

I made my food diary open to the public so feel free to message me about anything. Advice or tips are well recieved from me and I might have a few things to help you with if you have questions.
