I guess this is my story, I have always been a bit on the bigger side but in my early years through high school it played to my advantage. See I played football all the way through grade school and high school to I was a bigger guy 6' 1'' 275 lb but I was in shape for that size. College however changed that my life became more slowed down and that freshman 15 kicked in all 4 years. How do I know that because I just hopped on the scale today and weighed in at a massive 351!
Boy that didn't make me happy at all because I knew I had gotten big but that was a scary almost comic number. I weighed in because I started working out again today and I wanted to see where I was and get the kick in the fat pants I needed to get smaller. My goal is probably to weigh around 220 I think with my body type and build I would be a handsome man again at 220.
And it isn't like I am not decently active I walk a lot of places especially at work. I work at a zoo currently and we have to walk 1/4 mile to and from where we park everyday and that is before I start running all over the zoo all day. So on average I walk 1.5-2 miles 5 days a week, I just have the worst metabolism known to man......well maybe not but it's bad. So for now I am doing Cardio to get back into running/jogging/swiftly waddling pace. I am not going to hit the weights just yet because I am always lifting heavy things around work and at home, so I know I have good muscle tone and ability it is just covered up right now. Like I always said "I just love my 6 pack so much I had to cover it in a protective layer!"
Anyway I am rambling but that's me!
But seriously working at the zoo is pretty awesome!
Matt!
