Hi Ben - Just looked over your progress pics..wow.. you've done a lot of work! I am going to leave you a PM.. As I look back over 2008 I completed my goal of getting rest and eating normally after 3 years of solid dieting, building, & competing (9 shows in 3 years). I mentally stabilized and now am gearing up to compete again in April. Motivation is back - and I am business building. 2009 is my breakthrough year. Blessings to you and don't stop the great work you are doing!
