This was actually taken in June of 1993 at about 130 lbs. Sadly, I actually weighed more than double this at 265 in January of 2005 after about 5 years of gaining weight in my mid/late 20's.
I've admittedly not progressed much this year with many issues both relating to my health and personal life. And I'm ok with that, but don't plan on staying in this shape for long. I know I can do better. 175 in this photo.
..or rather, I'm saying a lot of big prayers for my aunt. We just found out today that she has stage 4 lung cancer.
