After years of sitting around the house all morning doing
nothing waiting to go in to work, I figured it was time for a change. The sedentary life style of sitting on the
couch eating and watching sports center had ballooned me to over 260lbs. I was definitely not where I wanted to be in
life, so in February of 2012 I began looking for a gym; that way I would at least
have something to keep me occupied for a while in the morning and could start
getting myself into better shape.
What
started off as just something to keep me busy for a while became a full blown
addiction when after the first couple weeks I had dropped 10 lbs. I started to go more and more often (now
anywhere between 4-6 times a week), and began to fine tune my work out routine
(mostly cardio, with some circuit to maintain some muscle mass), while keeping
an eye on what I was eating.
Originally
I had no goal set in mind, I just wanted to feel better about myself, but that
was short lived. My first goal was to get down to 220 lbs, which came and
passed relatively quickly. After that I
continued to set goals, and the weight just continued to melt away. I figured a plateau would come and that would
be my limit. Well here we are less than
1 year later and I have finally reached that plateau. I’ve lost over 100lbs and couldn’t feel better
about myself.
