    damn! your pics are making me feel a little gay ;) great job!
  • Jack...I remember the day that you were high fiving people at the gym after your first "beast mode" session. Reading this...not going to lie, made my eyes water. Why? Perhaps it is out of pride, out of sheer happiness for you, and for the fact that I was there to witness this journey of yours. I think it was a certain special someone that mentioned that they were beyond the point of believing that her past was her destiny. I think you've proven and forged a whole new destiny for yourself. I am proud to call you my friend...even if we've never met.

    A lot of people have commented on this. Maybe I should have emphasized it more because it's totally normal! I think I and all my friends have periods where we get off track and gain, reset our tickers to keep us honest, and get back to it.

    Previously, I was tempted to wait till the next week to start again if I ever got off track, but now that I understand one high calorie day (or week, or month, or even two months!) doesn't really reflect on me as a person, it is easy to just shrug and do better the next day. Good luck :)

    Do it! I was terrified of the gym for YEARS and once I finally steeled myself and got a membership (after sitting in my car in the parking lot for 20 minutes trying to get up the nerve to walk inside).... I realized I had wasted years being afraid of nothing. Now the gym is my happy place :)
  • I don't regret reading the whole thing. You're awesome and I'm inspired.

    Thanks! I have a blog here: myfitnesspal.com/blog/fivethreeone and I made an entry specifically talking about that for those of you who want to know how to get started. I studied for a while, and I'll be honest, it takes some time to get it right, but it is so worth it. good luck!!
