I realized that if I ever want to be happy in life, I need to get in shape. I am doing great in school, I have great friends, I am on track for a great career, my body and my health is the final key to being truly happy with my life.
Even though I've always known being fat would prevent me from reaching my life goals , I never could really get into it. I guess something clicked this past winter because I am totally hooked right now and show no signs of slowing down.
Why I Love It:
The way I feel now, compared to how I felt 3 months ago, is just mind boggling. I am happier, I feel better, I don't get random head aches, I don't lose breath just walking around, I've noticed my natural confidence around people is much better, life is just much better.
How I Stay Motivated:
I have this thing about death.... it's not
me.
I also have the most amazing friends and family who support me through the worst and best.
right now my ideal weight would be 225lbs, some little goal I have for myself is to walk on to the UW football program as a fullback when/if I go to Business School at UW after I get my bachelors.
Why I like this video: Ronnie Coleman cracks me up, sometimes I find myself saying his phrases when im working out
"YEAH BUDDY!!!"
"LIGHT WEIGHT BABY!!!"
Well, yesterday I took all my finals for winter quarter, so for me it is now officially spring (even though it's cold as crap outside), at least it's sunny. Hopefully it stays dry over spring break so I can shoot some hoops or maybe even get in some time on the tennis courts before school...
* thanx man, I appreciate it. U are talkn about mentally like emotionally how u think of urself? Just curious, I was thinkin that everything gets better once u get ur mind set to accomplish ur goals & to not look at the negative. *

Good luck w/ your goals and you will reach them..keep your head high and always stay positive:)
I was going to wish you focus, strength and determination but judging by the weight loss you have achieved to this point you have all of those things going strong. Keep up the great work as it is paying off. Keep believing in yourself and I wish you much continued success.
