As a 24 year old father of a little girl, being 280+ pounds was not supposed to happen. I was always in decent shape, until the kid was born, and I just had no energy to do anything except eat, sleep, and work, and it caught up to me, and i packed on 30-40 pounds in a years time. I couldnt even chase my little one around without losing my breath, and one day I looked in the mirror , Dec 4th 2011, and was utterly disgusted with myself, and decided to change my life. I dropped 47 pounds from dec 5th to may 1st, and another 15 or so from may 1st to the end of june, when i took the summer off. Gained some back, and went back around 235, and i started my re-cut august 23rd, the day my girlfriend of 3 1/2 years and mother of my daughter, decided to pack up and leave. Now I had a whole new reason to get my *kitten* in the best shape ive ever been in....and i busted my *kitten* since. Sure I didnt go as hard as my initial cut, but i took it slow and steady, worked out, got a new amazing career as a cable tech (where i'm working 10 hour days of manual labor), and here I am, 203 pounds and in the greatest shape of my life. My camera is acting up, so my picture is from 206, but not much of a difference lol
I cant wait to post another one of these when i hit my goal weight of 193 that i set for myself back on dec 4th, 2011

thanks everyone! and since we broke up, i went through about 7 girls (guess losing the weight drew some more attention in from the ladies...as i only ever was with 5-6 girls before lol) in which i finally found one who i fell in love with and am happier then ever0
