Father on a mission!!

About a 2yrs ago I got to biggest I have ever been in my whole life and I'm not talking about muscle,I'm talking about obese big... I was at 204lbs standing at just 5'5 I was short and wide, now I had always been around 185 or so maybe 189 but once I hit around my 30's I started to realize that a lot of the weight was sticking and not really going anywhere but my stomach and face. What really got me too start worrying was the chest pains I started to get from just sitting, I didn't even have to be doing anything that may have caused me to elevate my heart, at the time all I really did to be active was my job which is a physical job but was only limited. These pain were staring to have me on edge and a lot of thinking started to come into play with my home life. See I been a single father to a young girl and besides her grandparents,aunts and uncles I'm pretty much her only parent because of her mother not being in the picture very much, so this was a major motivated for me to get into a healthier lifestyle. I couldn't image my daughter not having another parent around for her to count on so change had to come! If there wa a way that I could possibly add a couple of more years to my life for my daughter then I was going to do whatever in my power to make that happen... So I stared off slow with cardio and a big change in my eating habits. Started to cut out the all the beer drinking, fried foods,eating late at night and just junk food. After awhile started to noticed a change in my energy and my motivation was there! I got a membership at the local Gold's Gym in Colorado Springs where I was at the time of this life changing event, I make it a point to start trying to be a frequent member. Started lifting weights little by little, next thing I started noticing was that the weight was coming off and I started to see a little definition in my body which definitely have me a lot more motivation,self confidence and most important I felt great! Not one chest pain ever since the switch to this better and healthier lifestyle. I know it was body telling me in its own way that "Hey you need to slow down"! Now I can say that I'm in the best shape of my life and that I'm full of energy, I love to work out always looking forward to the next day just so that I can get in there and bang it out on the weight! And still around for my beautiful daughter that's is growing up to be so bright,funny and amazing kid...
