Fifty Pounds Lighter
In 2013 somewhere between The Phoenix Forum and TES, I discovered that not only was I fat but I had moved over into being obese. (Some of you here on GFY were less than nice about it I might add.) So, I went on a diet and starting exercising. For the past two years, every morning I've run, hit the basketball court, and biked twenty miles - nearly every day.
In 2013 I was 255 lbs, and now I am down to 202 lbs.
Here on GFY someone in a thread a year ago about military training someone mocked me saying I would never be able to make the minimum requirements for Marine Corps boot camp again. Well, I started training with the local Marine recruiters office two weeks ago in a program designed to make young recruits eligible for boot camp. The running is easy, the sit ups will be difficult, and chin ups will be a huge challenge.
