ArmySoldier1

Overall Goal:  Failure is nothing more than practicing for success! Getting up after a fall requires far more courage than to have never tried to stand in the first place. Doing Work Crew is killin' it all day everyday!

Fit Status:  Waiting on my MRI tomorrow!!!! Need to get back into the gym!

Motivation Level: 9/10

When I Started:
Apr, 2006
How I Started:
I started because I wanted to go back into the military and I needed to lose about 80 pounds (I was around 285ish)! I took me about 7 months, daily workouts, the Zone Diet and a lot of dedication, but I did it! I have put on about 10 pounds of muscle. Working on shredding the last bit of fat around my gut.
Why I Love It:
I love the freedom I feel when it is just me and the weights. I takes me away from this place and for a couple hours a day, I have peace and calmness.
How I Stay Motivated:
Refusing to accept that I have to look my age! I am the new 20!

Well, the little Spider Monkey has waddled back into town! Yum! The food was quite good this weekend! I didn't even have to cook so it was especially nice. Glad you did the MRI. It will be nice for you to know what you are dealing with. Once you know for sure, you can come up with a plan to work with it properly. The worst part is not knowing!
