up until today; I was always overweight. My highest weight gain was 360lbs. In March of 2013 I decided that this is not what I wanted anymore. I was starting to have medical issues, I could not stand the site of looking at myself in the mirror. I went into a clothing store to purchase a shirt and pants to wear for a event, and at that time I wore a 44w pants and a xxxxlt shirt. When I tried the shirt and pants on, in order for me to get a comfortable fit that meant that I was going to have to try on a 46w pants and a xxxxxlt shirt. I was like oh that's dat bull ish right there. I left the clothing store; and when I got home I aint even gone hold you... I cried like a mothaucker.... cthu..... I prayed, and begin my weight loss journey in March of 2013, and from then until now I have gone from my weight being 360lbs down to 240lbs. maaaaaaan am I happy, my pants size has gone from a 44w down to a 36w, my shirts have gone from a xxxxlt down to a xlt. I thank God for the change. It was not easy, and anybody who has been through a weight loss transformation knows. I did hip hop abs and than moved up to insanity followed by p90x. I only did p90x for 1 month. At that time I don't think that I was mentally ready for the weight lifting challenge; even though it wasn't that hard to do. But you talking about a brother coming from not lifting any weights to now lifting, that ish was hard, and believe me many days I wanna give up on this mug. But I'm at the point where I am at the gym, and doing a lil bit more lifting and not being scared to do it. I'll post some pics, I don't like'em but hey that was me than and of course I'll post more now pics. I need that total body life changing experience; and I am looking for a long term change not a short term change. This is a lifestyle change for me. Hit me up though, I'm from philly.
