After feeling like I was about to have a heart attack after walking up 3 flights of stairs I finally realized I needed to do something. Since anything more than walking hurt my knees I decided to hit the weights to see if I could lose some weight.
Why I Love It:
I'm an addict now :).
How I Stay Motivated:
I want to get on a stage at least once just to prove to myself I can.
BB Accomplishments:
Going from being morbidly obese to being fit.

What El Pena Is Up To:
Apr 6, 2009
El Pena changed Body Fat from 12.8% to 12.4%, a loss of 0.4 percentage point in 7 days
First I want to get below 8% BF to see just how much loose skin I have, then if it's not too bad see if I can actually get enough definition despite it to get on a stage, if not then eventually have the skin removed and then get into shape to get on a stage.
First week back into the swing of things, surprisingly the diet was very easy to get into. My body appears to be responding well to the change, and I feel a bit more energetic than I had over the vacation. School is back in session, we get a couple weeks of class time then its off to...
Got some motivation from my trainer after my month long break and now he is demanding i kick ass for the next 5 months so I can mop the floor with all the other girls on stage...just jokes! But yes, im feeling the pressure and feeling cool under it. Whats new with you?
Hey bro, as long as you are back at it, that is all that matters! As we all know, diet is the most important part and you seemed to have that down! Keep me posted and keep pushing!
WOW...wish you the best at the show!!
I am certain you are going to kick some major ass there....so just stay focused!
And of course keep me posted and upload some pictures!
