When I Started:
Jul, 2007
How I Started:
I've worked out off and on, but after an incident involving some trespassers, I felt the need to get in better physical shape. No one was hurt during the incident, but better safe than sorry.
Why I Love It:
I love it because it's the one time of my day that I can trust. The iron doesn't let you down or lie to you. It just is.
How I Stay Motivated:
Getting results is a great way. Also, I'm finding BodySpace is a great tool as well. I'm frickin' addicted to this place!
BB Accomplishments:
Looking in the mirror and realizing that my body isn't the same one as a few weeks earlier.

This is me at the end of an evening. I have IBS and that causes a lot of bloating on it's own, plus the diet change, so I actually don't look as bad in this pic as I really do. Still...it's only a start.
And I only LOOK stoned...LOL
This is, honestly, a bit depressing, because I don't see squat different. I feel different though, and the lighting didn't catch a few things I see day to day, so I'll have to try and cut myself some slack on this one.

Goal (Long):
My goal is to get down to about 180 with 12% body fat. 12% body fat is the primary goal, the 180 lbs is all secondary.
After that, I want to bulk up some. Real Men Have Mass, after all! Besides, I've got a Super Hero complex as it is, so I damn well should look like one!
First, it looks like my break from that funk was only temporary, because it came back about the middle of the week. The Darkness kicked it up a notch, but The Animal wasn't to be undone. A great many things collided in my life this past week, the types of things that make many folks give...
Hey Tom, just popped in to see how you're doing but I see you haven't been on in a while. Hope you're keeping up the great work you had going. See ya soon.
