I’m staying about 175…I have completely changed my mindset regarding my weight….in the past, I felt my goal was to lose the weight through starving, over training……I feel so ****in stupid now….I can verbally express now what I want to achieve….And it is…..I want to build as much muscle mass as possible while eating healthy foods….My past has been a yo-yo existence when it came to food….Food was what I turned to for comfort,for my anger…at times it was my love…clear headed and focused….I had to learn that my  self respect….belonged it me…. That respect hinged on loving myself…that even though god was out there controlling things…I had to call on the god within myself…I had  forgotten that my body was a gift…my temple….once my foundation was built on limestone..turning to dust by the elements…Today that same foundation is built on granite…lasting strength…my goal now will be to be a positive force for others that believe all is lost cause brothers I was lost…truly…
