This is what I have achieved so far since I began competing. Being able to see the progress Ive made in the last two years gets me extremely excited for what I can achieve in the years to come. Now I also added a pic in here of when I was at my absolute worst. That pic was taken in December 2008. I had no self control over my cravings, I ate what I wanted when I wanted (sounds like the life, doesnt it?) which got me to that state. I want to show this to everyone, not so much to show the physical change I have managed to make for myself, but to motivate ANYONE that may be going through this sort of journey for themselves right now whatever level they may be at. Before I found Metroflex Plano/ ...destination I had managed to drop 85 pounds on my own. Aside from the countless amounts of clean eating and running I was doing at the time the one factor I had to fight every single day was my mind, which is still very much present today of course. During that period and up to now ive asked myself the same two questions when ever I felt like I was really pushing my mental fortitude to a new limit, how bad do you want it &,why do I do this. Now I wont go into how I answer that but I will say these questions put things in perspective for me in a way that allows me to continue pushing through. That feeling that would come over me when I would succeed at a task I would create for myself, no matter how significant, is so much more satisfying and worth it than how I would feel if I gave up. The one thing I can guarantee is the pain you go through now is far more worth it than the regret of not allowing yourself to experience your true potential.
