Guy saying hi sharing his story
Well I'll start this by saying i was always the fat guy pretty much my whole life...This heaviest i was before i started my weight loss was a little less then a year ago and i weighed in at 247, to be that weight to be normal I probably should have been 8 feet tall but im only 5"10'. To tell the truth I had a horrible self body image, and I looked in the mirror one day and just said a long ******* I need to do something (maybe everyone here has had that feeling at one point.) I really didn't do anything hang out didn't do anything physical. Well on that epiphany of the whole, holy **** thats me, I decided to do something. I am one of those people who hates dieting and exercise, but I found something I loved which is combat sports. After i tried out my trial at a local MMA gym (mixed martial art...boxing, kickboxing, muay-thai and jiujitsu) I said I was going to do it. I signed up and went at it 100% and it was not easy at first. Let me just say for weeks i was having trouble just walking out of the gym (and walking normally the day after trust me it was bad), and that was just learning boxing at first, and then after i could tolerate boxing i branched out into muay thai and brazilian jiujitsu. I can say I have something i am going to stick with my whole life which is bjj and I plan to keep actively competing and being accountable to a weight class (light weight, 161lbs) for tournaments as a way to keep my weight down. All I can say is I am now in incredible shape and actually am happy about my body
