first i want to thank everyone who has supported me and helped me achieve my goals on bodyspace! its been a hard long journey but one i would not change for anything in the world becouse the past years struggles have helped forge who i am today! and to be be frank this is the first time in my life i like who i am!    ive been married now 12 years and my wife has seen me with my shirt off more the past month then the 12 years we have been together !! i’ll actually use the swimming pool this year!! before this i was really insecure about myself!!     one of my goals along with the weight loss after hooking up with stevep78 my trainer was to get tranformation of the week on bb.com wich i did that will be up on the main page in a couple of weeks but then the people at bb.com emailed me about using me as over 40 amateure bodybuilder!    wich is up today!!!                 Â
                                               im not gonna lie when i was reading the email and answering the qustions i was shaking i was nervouse and full off joy why you ask ??? its becouse its the first time in my 42 years that i set out to do something and finished it to the end!                                                                                                                                 fittness and bodybuilding is a life style that i plan on doing to the day the good lord takes me .     to all the overweight people out there its yours for the taking take control of your life today!!!             there is nothing special about me i put my pants on one leg at a time just like you if i can do it you can also . you just have to decied to do it !!!   thanks again to all the bodygroups i belong to i concider  you all my friends!! thanks for the motivation when i needed it to finish something i set out to do .   your friend   john
