in Success Stories
Use to be 320 eat everything on sight have Pizza ,steaks anything bad at 3am or 12

had about 15 beers a day i was so depressed .


I almost gave up when every girl i saw said "not in a million years" or we can be " just friends"

I made it my goal to lose everything and get abs . (everyone laughed at me)
(Make sure no girl would ever say no)


joined the BAC and my personal trainer Andy saved my life with CrossFit..
doing (tire flipping ,deadlift, cowbells , wall balls ,upside down pushups.

10 months later lost 136 pounds ..

    Well done OP.

    Now, in regards to the girls... don't ever wear shorts (or worse, trousers?) like these ever again and you should be sweet.

    Hey Folks,

    This is a topic about success and the OP's journey to achieve it. Posts arguing with the OP's use of Cross Fit will be considered thread hijacking/trolling and will be removed. Debate elsewhere, this is a celebration of success.

    Much thanks to many for their positivity,

    This girl is going to say not in a million years are you eating enough to maintain your excellent progress. Are you are being inaccurate in your tracking or are you truly eating less than 1,000 calories most days?

    Congratulations, I have to disagree with you and say that is a big deal - many people would have turned down that chance and said to themselves its just too much hard work, so well done.

    Wow you look amazing and I can't believe you did that in 10 months. I have been thinking about Crossfit myself but feel so fat that I was afraid I wouldn't get much out of it. You have changed my mind. Again, wow and congratulations.
