I started around 1998 at 160 lbs. I have not stop since that time.

my height weight was 220 lbs but lots of fat.

The weights are always there waiting for me. They don't cheat, judge, lie or nag me. They are always there when I need them.

They are pretty good to release stress. My jobs are usually very stressful. The latest one is not but I have encountered other challenges in life and weights are helping me to deal with them.

Also, in the last two years I have improved my fitness in a way that has allowed me to do things that I thought I could never do again like playing volleyball.
