As I enter the Gym last night I spot my old Trainer assisting one of his Clients. He waves me down as I swipe my card at the entrance. He looks me up and down and says to me ‘You did it’… I’m thinking to myself ‘what did I do’? I just smile and say thank you man you helped me a lot and I really do appreciate it. He says, No brother you did it all by yourself I just put you on your path.

I should feel good for all of this, but in all actuality I don’t. Not really, I feel good, but not GREAT. I don’t feel I have ‘done it’ yet. I’m not done. I’m still a work in progress. With still a long road ahead of me. Sometimes people hear this as I have in the past and just stopped and felt as if they have reached the finish line, but this is just another turn in my long ass Marathon of weight-loss. I am tired. I am over-trained, exhausted, physically and mentally drained. I need my vacation, which just so happens to take place next week. I need to be revitalized..which will happen on the sandy beaches of Grand Cayman ? But once I return from my trip, I will be more driven than ever to reach my target weight of 220. I am 22 pounds away from that. When I reach that target, that will mark a total weight loss of 206lbs.

Yesterday a client of mine INSISTED that I had Gastric Bypass. He practically made me remove my shirt to prove I had no scarring from the procedure, which I humbly did so he could remove the foot from his own mouth. He said I should write a book..who knows maybe I will, but more-so I want to help people that have been in my same situation and SHOW them that there are natural and healthier alternatives to weight loss, and no one is hopeless. Anything can be accomplished with the right mind-set. Hell my lazy ass is doing it ?
