Getting Started…
June 29, 2008
If you ever want to accomplish something sometimes you just got to jump out there and make a fool of yourself. You might actually discover that you aren’t making a fool of yourself. I have struggled with my weight for awhile and I finally came to the breaking point a week ago. When you stand in front of the mirror shaving and you start to cry because of what you have become it is time to fix it.
I have always joked about being fat, bald headed and hairy and it makes others and myself laugh but to tell you the truth I don’t always laugh. I think my comedic side was just hiding my true feelings about who I had become. I was an overweight slob. I don’t need anyone to tell me that I am being too harsh on myself because I’m not. I have heard people tell me for the last three years that “you’re not that big, you just have a belly, etc, etc, etc…” I am that big. I weighed myself and I weighed in at 268 lbs. That is pathetic. So I decided to “make a fool” of myself and inspire others.
This site and upcoming blogs will be a journal of motivation, success, and failures. I want to encourage you and anyone else you know to leave comments. Both good and bad. You see, I have thick skin and I thrive on negative feedback. Get in my face and yell at me. It feeds the Marine side of me that can be quite scary at times. Hopefully with your help I can make it come alive and become scary to my fat.
The goal is to update this blog once or twice a week with new pictures every two weeks. I will share meal plans as well as workout plans. Hopefully I can inspire everyone that needs to liose a few extra pounds.
