I'm not big on telling my story because I don't think I really have anything to tell that can be nearly as inspiring at some of the stories I've heard.

At my heaviest I weighed in at 230 lbs. I had gotten to the point where I didn't really care about how I looked or felt anymore. At the time I was an active alcoholic usually consuming upwards of 2-3 liters of vodka every day. I finally hit my bottom and committed my life to my King and Savior. Since that time, I struggled through replacing alcohol with anything that could make me feel better, including over eating.

One day I just got tired of feeling like crap and having no energy to do anything. So I downloaded a C25K app and started running. That's when I realized that I could turn my addictive behavior into some good and I became obsessed with my health and fitness.

60 days ago I decided I needed to step it up and I started P90X, the rest is history and the photos below are just a beginning to where I want to be.

Here is my heaviest at 230lbs in 2010

These are when I started P90X. The first picture is 30 days prior to starting.

Another 4 weeks of P90X and I'm expecting bigger results! :D

    Thanks everyone for the nice comments. One thing I forgot to mention is that 20% of my progress really only comes from working out. 80% is really a healthy diet. I consume between 1800 and 2400 calories a day depending on my workouts and I eat clean. I know some people say calories in calories out and that's true but what you put in your body determines how you feel and is your fuel for pushing harder in my workouts. If I eat all my calories in sweets, I feel like crap and my workouts suffer. But I'm only speaking for what works for me.

    Thanks again!!
