I used to weigh 170 and was also shorter than I am now. So I was pretty overweight, close to obese I'd say. I had to change the way I looked, and I did. I started eating healthier and working out more and suddenly things just started changing for me. I'll have to upload a picture of how I used to look, it's pretty scary.

I love the feeling of getting sore, it gives you a feeling of accomplishment. Then getting to see the fruit of your labor is the most satisfying thing in the world to me. Seeing your body change, and other people seeing your body change is an amazing feeling no matter who you are.
