When I Started:
Sep, 2007
How I Started:
I quit smoking in 2006, but I still felt like I needed to replace this void with an activity, but I continued to consume a little to much alcohol afterwards. I worked out off and on, but not with a proper diet. In the latter part of 2008 I have decided to stop messing around.
Why I Love It:
I feel great. I am getting more confidence, and I look better than I did before.
How I Stay Motivated:
Im tired of of being skinny and fat at the same time. And Im going to do something about it before I get to old.
BB Accomplishments:
Recently I tried on a shirt that I use to wear when I was a twenty something. I almost ripped the stitches apart around my shoulder when I flexed my arm. The shirt used to be loose fitting from what I can remember.

I want to gain 10-20 pounds of muscle and lose my belly fat and never be ashamed to take my shirt off.
Goal (Long):
I have always been a fan of Arnold Schwarzeneggar since I was a teenager. I admired these bodybuilders and thought what would it be like, but I had too many distractions. Now no more. Time is running out and I want to be a gorgeous hunk at the age of 50. I got four years. I'm tired of having thin arms and a bulging belly.
I am dreading age since I hit 45 and I wish I could turn back the hands of time. When I discovered her bodyspace I could not believe her age, she looks younger than me. she has inspired me to continue this ongoing project of self improvement, or I call it a restoration project like a muscle car, except it takes longer. I am no longer afraid of aging.
I just wish this fluid was devoid from my life entirely, I am fighting alcoholism like pancreatic cancer. Its winning the battle, cause Im not trying full force. I love my beer too much and most of my friends and part of my family are all drinkers from one degree to another. My father is almost...

Thanks, and hope you have a very Merry Crhistmas as well. How is the training going for you? I feel like I'm finally making good headway. It seamed like for about a year, I was lifting hard, but with little progress. Anyhow, good to hear from you, and let's both make 2010 our year for real gains.
I stopped by to say that you are well on your way to achievig your goal and to wish you nothing but success. I compliment you on your dedication and determination and look forward to watching your continuing progression.Stay strong, focused and determined & may God bless.
hey, there. Just checking in to see how things are going. I'm finally back into it 5x/wk now and it feels great. Anything new w/ you? Anyhow, hope all is well, keep at it, and have a great day.
Hey, there. Good to hear from you. How have you been? I've been doing a lot more cycling than lifting over the summer. Still lift 2x/wk, that will increase here soon when the weather cools down. I've managed to loose quite a bit of fat in the process, down to about 155 or so. Anyhow, hope you have a great day.
Just received the comment you left on my "friends" blog posting. If I remember correctly, I wasn't having a good day, that day, and was just venting (although it is true). Nice to see that someone agrees with me. Anyhow, thanks for keeping in touch, and have a great day/nice weekend.
