Trainer- Brian Szmigiel
Life at 340 lbs... Seems like a whole lifetime ago, but it was only a couple short years. I was 23 years old and I was in such bad shape I would go out of my way to avoid being in pictures, or even looking in the mirror. My health was getting out of control. One day I made myself take a good long look in the mirror and decided I couldn't continue on like that; it was time to make a change. I feel like every success story has the cliché moment where the person decides her or she"needs to make a change," but it's true, that's how it happens.
I started with just eating better, because, well I was too out of shape to do anything else, then I added very short walks, that got longer and longer over time. Eventually running and lifting, then Snap. I couldn't have done it without the support of my friends and Family. Helping me keep away from temptation while I was still to weak to turn them away on my own.
It's the little things you appreciate the most about getting into shape, like being able to walk up a flight of stairs without getting winded, or being able to easily bend over to tie your shoes. Life is entirely different; I'm happier, I have more energy, and I'm able to do a lot of things I wasn't able to before. Here I am now though, 140 lbs later weighing in right at the 200 lb mark. Still a work in progress but that's what Snap and Brian are for.
