My Transformation Story

My wife and I got on this program couple of years back, however we were not consistent even though we saw great progress. I'm back now determine to make it work.
Okay, let me shed a little of myself, or shall I say a lot of myself. Get it?
I was very fit and athletic when I was in high school and my early years in the Coast Guard. I had start putting on weight and my excuse was that I was gaining muscle. I used to workout and drink all night and then back to the gym again. Over the years my weight slowly crept up from a fit 139 lbs boxer in high school to a fat 265 lbs 40 year old man.
I was in denial till people stop calling me husky to just fat. I was a tough guy, or I'd like to think I am, but inside it was hurtful to hear people make fun of my size. I'd laugh along.
After seeing my brother in law Rickson and his wife Susan making great progress on the program, my wife and I made the final decision to once and for all get on the program and lose the unhealthy fat that I have been carrying all these years. I am excited to see result. This is actually my second week into the workout and I've seen great result. I can't wait to see more progress. I know that it might be far fetch, but I would like to lose 70 to 80 lbs in 90 days.
It has been over 90 days, and while I have yet to reach my goal, I have made significant progress. I am happy to show my pictures as a result. Please keep checking back for update.
Great progress! Yipee! I just checked my weight and I am happy to announced that I am down to 225 lbs. I am on my second rounds for P90X and I look forward to dropping below 200. Please check back for update.
