This Is Who I Am

This is who I am! well the new me. I walked in to the bathroom at work this morning and for the first time in what seems like a very long time, I’m proud of what I see. I had to take a picture and show the world. I will blur out my face since no one knows about this blog and I’m ashamed of all my debt and money mishandlings. Anyways, this is who I am:



Please keep in mind I used to be fat. The picture above is significant because I used to be a size 40 with a giant beer belly. I know my female readers are thinking YUCK and so was I. My weight back then was 216 pounds and I could easily put down 12 beers at any time, followed by all kinds of foods I don’t even care to mention.

So what happened? Back in November 2010 my wife was not happy with the way she looked so she decided to change. She started doing Body-for-Life which I have mentioned before but I think part me was doing it just to be supportive. She asked me to help her and like any good husband I said YES (I always tell her, it’s your world I just live in it). She wanted me to be there for her work outs and help her with planning all meals and grocery shopping. I can only say it was the best thing that ever happened to us.

The picture you see above is the new me. My weight this morning was 185 pounds. I’m wearing size 34 pants (need to go down) with a size 16 shirt. I no longer have a beer belly, in fact I have a lot of definition in that area, hopefully abs come next. Over the last 3 months I have lost close to 31 pounds and lost all kinds of body fat I didn’t even know I had.

If you are looking to make a change and are interested in BFL or need ideas or support, please let me know. Just click on the contact me button above and it will send me a private email. My goal is to encourage others to change and experience what I felt this morning.

BFL is not hard, it takes some commitment for 6 days of the week but on the 7th day you get to cheat! You can eat anything you want, what program could be better!?
