Back on February 22, 2016 I was admitted into the hospital for multiple organ failure and a blood pressure of 240/198 and my bpm were 170.

That week, I saw the light. I knew I had to change or I would really die.

I got this app the day I left the hospital, bought a Fitbit a month later and started to really hit the gym back in March. I keep my calories at 1500 a day. I try to keep my fats, carbs, and protein in harmony lol.

I don't have any full body shots but I can show you my license that was taken in December of 2015 and a face pic taken yesterday.

I still have a long ways to go. But I'm chugging it out!'n
