Last night after having a cigarette and playing on my phone I saw a few pictures that made me think. To let you guys see what I was looking at Ill post up a few of my pictures I was looking at. They are from about 2 years ago after losing about 40lb's from when I was in highschool.

As you can tell, I was cut, I was benching higher then ever, could run a mile without being winded, hell I looked good and felt good in anything I wore, stores actually had my size! This was an amazing feeling, but like took a toll on me with a high stress job and working CRAZY hours all while being full time in college.
Well Im not getting any younger...I decided it was time to change my life. I'm tired of sitting down and feeling my body roll over itself, Im tired of being out of breath during certain..."activities with the wife".... I'm tired of having a sore back, Im tired of buying clothes because mine don't fit, I'm tired of the bloated fat feel, and most of all Im tired of being ashamed of my body and man boobs.
I hopped on craigslist and found P90X. Met him last night and offered him $40 for it. After that I went to the grocery store and got: Chicken breasts, Red D'anjou Pears(succulent and always soft), Golden Delicious Apples, and Skim Milk. I have supplements at home, along with protien powders/ect. These key things will be some of my best friends during this battle to better myself.

Now onto this morning:
The wife and I took our P90x pictures. She asked me not to post hers(she looks sexy, doesn't even need P90x) but Ill respect her wishes. Its hard for me to do this as I am ashamed of how my body looks but this is one of the ways I will keep myself accountable to make change and continue on this path. So here it goes:

| Fancy pose hahaha |
I haven't gotten a chance to weight myself yet today(battery is dead in the scale) but I will be weighting myself this evening. I will post up tomorrow my weight. This isn't going to be an easy battle, but I need to do this. We watched the P90x intro video today. I will be doing the workout tonight. The only problem I see is it requires some equipment I don't have the money to go out and buy...(dumb-bells) and then the pull-up bar....Ill be trying to figure something out. I also quit smoking today.
Thanks for reading....
