How I started on my Journey

Every Tuesday I would tune in to watch the Biggest Loser, Say to myself these people are the luckiest people in the world. They have won the lottery, there going to the ranch/campus to begin a new like. Then It happen at the beginning of the last season,

Jillian & Bob started the show with an ass kicking for there viewers, Instilling you can do this at home! Urging us to put down that ice-cream we were eating as we watched the contestants loss weight! The Dimmer Switch in my head began to turn, not very far but it started to turn. Every week I would watch, them lose the weight, crying at the end of each show. Not because they did well nope, I was a very jealous of the fact they are getting a second chance. In the season finale last year Jerry the guy who went home first won the at home contest. So my awesome wife said enough we can do this, lets get a trainer and see what happens.

Now we have done every diet out there, so at first I was not very confident this was going work. I bought a membership to a gym in the past, went once, felt very uncomfortable and I then I would quit. Again my Awesome Wife talked to a few people & my brother in-law suggested trying out where he went and use his trainer. A little personal training Studio called Alive. I began on June 3 weighting 520 pounds, 6 months later I have lost 65 pounds & it has been the best 65 pounds I ever lost, because I know that it is gone for good as I worked very hard to lose those 65 pounds. I feel the Dimmer switch in my head has now turned a lot. I used to think exercising is the hardest part of weight loss, I was wrong that is the easy part. The hard part is eating and the food. There is more to it then just eating a lot of veggies!

It is very sad to think that I wasted all those years, thinking it can’t be done. Now I know it can be, the biggest loser may have got me to start my Journey, but it is the hard work of My Trainer, My Life Coach, My Wife and I that will help me reach my goal.
