I was the fat kid growing up. Getting picked on throughout public school led to me becoming anorexic when I was 13, just before high school. This went on for about three months, and I had gone from being 180 lbs to a sickly 118 lbs. One morning while looking in the mirror, I snapped out of it. The day before i was disgusted with how I looked as I still saw myself as fat. I could see my ribs, and I knew I had to make a change. This was the beginning of my journey, it got me to where I am now and it made me who I am today.

It's amazing what you can do when you push yourself. Nothing motivates me more than pushing past my old limits and setting new goals.
