edited November 15 in Success Stories
After years of eating crap food and drinking beer nearly everyday it finally started to catch up with me. I decided to make a change November 23rd 2014. I quit smoking, started eating clean, went from drinking everyday to maybe a couple times a month and started working out 5-6 times a week. I've lost 40lbs starting at 190 lbs about %20 body fat down to 150 lbs %10 body fat. I feel 1000 times better and can't imagine going back to such an unhealthy lifestyle. Hoping to tone up more and get to %8 body fat by my 27th birthday on July 11th. Wish me luck. ubgrqcozpbd1.jpg

    Thank you! You can do it. Clean diet and lots of water really help! I don't drink any calories unless it is the occasional beer which isn't very often now

    Wow! I'm speechless! I'm in almost the exact same boat, it's going to be ridiculously hard to give up my craft beer though. But knowing what's possible is VERY motivational! Thank you for sharing!
