So i was playin football with my brother and a few friends saturday and hurt my knee. I went to the er and they said it was fine, but to talk with my regular doc. I went to see him yesterday and he sent to me to get an MRI, found out that i have a torn ACL. I am with 1 week of workin out straight for 1 year and this happens. Anyways, i just needed to vent and maybe hear some support. Thanks

SO i was watching a few videos gettin motivated and realized that everyone goes through this. And by "this" i mean the feeling of no progress, the feeling that i will never reach my goals. I know that i will and i know that i have made major progres, but it is just nice to know that even the best, have struggled at one point or another in one stage or another. I mean, i dont want to sound like it is good to have to struggle, but it is good to know that what i am working for is something only the elite of mind can get. An that makes all this worth it.

All day i have been beatin myself up over the dream, but i got some great words of wisdom from people i have never met, and i realized that i should be proud of my progress. The people on this site have helped me through a lot, and in a matter of minutes, after beatin myself all day, i went from depressed to feelin amazin. I cant express myself any better than simply sayin, Thank you. I know it doesnt seem like much, but i believe it means most just by sayin thank you. I am astounded everyday by the worlds wonders. The people on this site have been amazin and i can only hope one day i can return the favor.

Ok so, i seem to look better and people say i am lookin a lot better, so why am i still depressed and imbarrased to take my shirt off. Literally, i had a dream last night that i was walkin a beach with my shirt off and people were laughin at me, i cant stand it, and if i work any harder i will only be hurting myself. Does anyone one know what i am talking about, maybe a Psycologist?

Ok, i am back from R&R and i had the best time with my family. Yes i did fall off the wagon just a little, because family wants bbqs and going out to eat and i didnt have it in me to say no. But i am back in IRAQ more determined than ever. I lost 5 pounds will home, but i am almost certain it was water weight because i wasnt drinking as much of it. I have big plans and goals and will continue to strive for them. I have discussed surgery with my wife about my man, well about my body. And we have decided that i will shredd as much fat as possible and if they are still there at the end, I will have the surgery. Anyways, wish me luck and thanks for reading.

So i missed my goal. I go on leave Monday and i am only at 226, so it is only by 6 lbs. I think i have been gaining a lot of muscle to make up for the fat i have lost so i am not disappointed. I know my family will notice my effort. I put up the pics a little early this month because when i go on leave all i will be thinking about is my son and wife and family. I will however try and get into to gym, But i am going to use the next 3 weeks as a full recovery time period because when i get back from leave, I am hitting the gym so hard that my body will have no choice but the look good. Thanks to everyone’s advice and support i have made it this far. I have set new goals and i will reach for them every day.

So i hit three months on the 18th. I posted the pics. I feel the best i have felt in a long time. I look the best i have looked in a long time. The pic doesnt even touch how much i see myself changing and feeling. I now know what it means to strive for something each and every day, and continue to do so without any doubts that what i am doing is affecting me as a person. I have become more confident and have pride in what i do. I just wanted to let everyone know that i am proud of myself, and will continue to push myself to new extremes each and everyday.
