i was discharged from the navy with a broken foot and badly injured achilles. i didnt want surgery so i opted for the physical therapy/long term cast route. after my seperation i stopped working out and eating more. my weight skyrocketed to 210 lbs. one day i tried to put on some jeans and couldnt even get one leg over my thigh lol. so i began working out in april 2010 and lost 32 lbs by october 2010. at that point i changed my diet and the lbs shed off. in november of 2011 i weighed in at 145. currently im working on gaining muscle and losing some fat. i hope that this fitness pays off with a long, happy life!

i feel amazing and so healthy!
