In order for you guys to et a complete picture I am going to take you ALL the way back to when I was a kid. Okay, so it was that long ago and some of your may argue that I am still a kid … but you get the picture.
My entire life I was a gymnast, I had spent 20+ hours per week in the gym since I was 10-years-old. I never really had to worry about what I ate because I knew I would just work it off in the gym.
I graduated high school in 2007, I was 5-1 and weighed 90 lbs. Of course I knew that I was going to gain some weight when I moved away to school my Freshman year (let’s face it I need to get a little more meat on my bones). So naturally, I fell victim to gaining the Freshman 15 … then the Sophomore 15 … Junior 10 … Senior 10 … and post graduation 5. We all can do the math, but in case you don’t feel like using that side of your brain that’s a total of 50 lbs, putting me at 140 lbs.
It’s clearly time to change the way I eat and get more active. I hope to keep you all up-to-date on my process through pictures, recipes, exercises and more… So let’s start with some photos of me.
