In 2017, on my daughter's first birthday, I woke up at 3:30 am, changed into some shorts and a T-shirt, and drove 5 minutes to 24-hour fitness. This was my first time in a gym in several years. I was 310 pounds and I was determined to start a path to a healthier lifestyle. My main motivation, my daughter. I did not want her to grow up with a dad that was either too tired to do anything and/or had several health problems due to years of bad habits and neglecting his body.
This is my Journey.
In November of 2019, our son was born, shortly after that, the pandemic hit, and as it was with many people it threw off my routine in terms of fitness. Gyms closed, workout equipment was almost non-existent to find online and anything that was, was increadbly over priced, I remember how excited I was to get work out bands. My mental health was suffering and I lost sight of all my fitness and nutritional goals. I gained back most of my weight, and my lifestyle was not condusvie to health. It was a struggle for over a year.
After a while, I did wake up, I worked hard to get back into a steady routine and focus on my nutrition, yet it was still a struggle. The motivation was not there at all. I had shit away all my progress, I was back to square one. First thing I had to do, Stop making excuses. Stop blaming the world around me. This was on me. I needed to change. I needed to step up and be the man my family needed. I had endured a lot fo stress due to the after affects of the pandemic, but we had made it through. Financies were not booming, but they were stable, everyone was healthy, and we were seeing our kids grow and develop. If I am going to be the father and husband that I wanted to be, I needed to get my act together, get motivated and take care of myself.
