I got home in 2010. I was a homeless Veteran. Out of work. Over weight. Hopeless to the core.

Above is an article in the local paper about me.

23 pounds lost so far! I am teetering on 186 and I was over 212 pounds before I came here.

I had no job. No control.

I still don't have a job, I got a career working in the movie industry making $18 an hour working 10+ hours a day and getting paid weekly. Life is perfect.

It all started with a step in the right direction.
