I started at 175 health in 2008 the was prescribed painkillers for my back. Well after that was done i was hooked looking for anything to get by. By 2013 i was a full blown H addict got on the wagon and fell off a dew time but have been good since july of 2015 and have gone from 146 16% bf to 178 7.2%bf and have turned my addiction to my wellbeing. Im actually addicted to the whole process of staying healthing eating right and well of course we cant forget the best part the gym!
"IT WILL HURT.
It will take time.
It will require dedication.
It will require willpower.
You will need to make healthy decisions. it will require sacrifices.
You will need to push your body to its max.
There will be Temptations.
But, i promise you, when you reach your goal,
it will be WORTH IT"

    Thank you for posting about your success. Many of us are troubled by addiction (it's in my family) and it's comforting to hear a story like yours. It's hard enough to talk about a "regular" weight problem, so I salute your courage here. Thanks again, and Godspeed on your continuing recovery!

    Kudos! I've been sober almost 3 years, quit smoking, and now have lost 58 pounds. Toughest thing in the world to turn your life and around and keep it on a positive path everyday. But you're absolutely right - it's soooo worth it. Keep on keepin' on!
