If you’ve been reading this blog you’re probably wondering who I am and why I feel that I should be writing on the subject of weight loss and nutrition. I don’t blame you. I wouldn’t want some fat guy telling me how to lose weight!
The truth is that my body has transformed in this manner: fat => skinny => fat=> fit => fat
Since I was little I always remembered being bigger than kids my age. It was always a horrible feeling but being so young I could do nothing about it. Years down the road I decided I wanted to change. With the introduction of the internet I began to educate myself on how to lose weight. After intensive research I chose the quickest weight loss plans I could find, ultimately transforming myself into skinny man (in a lanky, unattractive way). Because I implemented a fad diet (Atkins, followed by a poorly implemented Keto plan), I gained all the pounds back by introducing the staples of my old eating lifestyle.
Determined to have a more sustainable weight loss, I researched far and wide for information until I found a great exercise plan complimented by a healthy diet. It was incredible! I was eating tasty food, losing weight and keeping it off.
As I hit the midway point in my college career things took a turn for the worst. My family was having long-term problems and the stress was affecting my dedication.
Long story short: I gained 70 pounds and lost the muscle I had gained.
What this blog is about
The goal of all my writing is to educate people of everything I’ve learned throughout this entire process and show them that there is a way to healthier life. I will obviously be leading through example because this blog will track my progress. I’m no expert but I can definitely help others in similar positions.
