“The juice is worth the squeeze” - Forrest Griffin
For about 3 years straight, everyday i was in a home depot picking up somethin or other. Sometimes feelin crabby from a hangover, sometimes starvin, or sometimes just stuffed from a bigass lunch. When i was 320lbs in there i was just always feelin some kind of shitty and thered always be people starin; Theres an aisle with alotta mirrors that i’d walk down and suck in my gut as hard as i could to try to look normal. I’d inevitably haul ass outta there cuz i was grossed out and deflated at how FAT I was. Puttin on 10lbs a year really adds up fast
FAST FORWARD 1 YEAR - and alotta hard work
It was a windy day here thrsday and and just before i started liftin - the mirror by my weights fell over and shattered. I jumped in my truck and hit home depot in my workout gear - boots, shorts, and a loose black underarmor shirt . I grabbed a cart, 6 cinder blocks and i was on the hunt for a mirror. Just like before, people stared… I was feelin the same self conscious that i i used to feel i was like goddamn.. On top of that i couldnt find the fuchin mirrors! I finally asked someone and when i walked down the bathrom cabinet aisle this time I glanced to my right and was shocked!! The obese fat guy id seen for a decade in those very same mirrors wasnt staring back at me; Instead I saw a lean guy with muscles pushin that cart. I shit you not, it was like i had an out of body experience. Luckily nobody else was in the aisle, cuz man i musta posed for 2 minutes before i strolled outta that joint with 2 new mirrors. For the first time people were starin at the beef, not the huge spare tire / lovehandles.
The reason i wrote this blog is to thank everybody thats givin me encouragment , info, and motivation since i started my mission a year ago. Ive still got a ways to go to be like the studs on bodyspace, but I’m gettin there. To those who are just starting or in the middle of your own transformation… DONT GIVE UP! Cuz its an awesome feeling when u look in a mirror one day and you are impressed by your new body! No matter how far gone you are… I guarantee: Bust your ass and eat clean for a year and the results will amaze you!
