I am so respect myself so much , I did not know that I could go this far,Now I can Sleep and i have more Energy .

I remember When I was 17 or 19 yrs old, I was on the best shape of my life, I Played basketball everyday and I was going to the GYM twice per day, I said to myself Oh Boy!! those day are over, By Using lots of Excuses I forgot about my body, I star getting fat At 23 yrs old little by little , pound after pound, I when to eat at buffets and I said well I am not to fat, look at the person is Next to you, you look great compare to them, Who I was comparing to? the guy that can hardly walk? the guy that he is so out a shape that needs to carry his oxygen Tank with him?.

Last year on September I touch Bottom, I was not able to breath, I was to fat, I was always tired, I almost Die because I was not able to breath and almost did not make it to the hospital, I almost pass out several times at nights and my body yelling aloud , please please do something!!!! Don't you see your body can do it any more, your mind, your heart ?

On Sep 7 2010 I made a commitment to get in shape, trust my body and have a great relationship with my family friends and love ones I figured if I want it to spend more quality time with them and live a long life I need it to change, Here I am 50 minus and I am going for more. I am at 244 pounds last year this time I weight Over 295 pounds , and Yes you can too!!!

  • great job.. i like you found myself needing to lose many pounds to hopefully get body to feel better ..so this year began eatting better and working a mild slow paced workout program.. and as of today have lost 52 pounds.. I am feeling better .. not perfect but better.. and the body pains have reduced some. other health issues are also better than when i was 195 pounds.. i am currently 142.2 and not done yet.. I plan to get another 30 off.. so again great job and keep it up. You can defenitly do it.

    It is amazing how we can rationalize the extra weight. Good for you for opening your eyes to it and doing something about it. Awesome work so far :)
