    Awesome job man. What I've gathered from this is that Disney makes you fat but when you join the Army you lose a lot of weight. OH NO I'VE DIVULGED THE ULTIMATE WEIGHT LOSS SECRET!

    Awesome job man. What I've gathered from this is that Disney makes you fat but when you join the Army you lose a lot of weight. OH NO I'VE DIVULGED THE ULTIMATE WEIGHT LOSS SECRET!

    Hahaha! I laughed so hard at this, you have no idea!

    Funny thing is, when I was 20 I was in the Army and I was built like a brick *kitten* house. I was in for a bunch of years, was in the first Gulf War and in Saudi. After I got out, I slowly became what you see in those early photos (over about 15 years or so). I am now able to fit into my old military clothes from when I was in my early 20's.

    When someone sees you wearing an Army shirt weighing 300lbs, you know their reaction is that I went out and bought it at a surplus shop and I wouldn't know what it was like serving our country. I'm now able to wear my clothes proudly and that makes me feel better than I ever thought I could.

    Plus, I am an Army Black Knights football fan (yeah, yeah, I know we only have one win!) so I have a bunch of clothes with the Knights on them. :)

    Just yesterday, I was wearing that shirt out at the mall and someone wearing a short sleeve one similar to it said, "Hello sir. Thank you for your service". I got a little choked up. It was the first time in a LONG while that I felt that way.

    Getting healthy did a lot more for me than make me look better, it literally is changing my life in every way.
