So,
I know I'm about a week late on posting this, but lets pretend that I did post this while I was camping.
It was six months ago that I started a journey to do what I had never before done. I didn't really have a set goal back then, but more or less just fell into one as time passed. My ultimate goal was to reach 260 which would have put me down a total of 70 lbs, but that was never meant to be in six months, and i knew it would be unhealthily impossible to do. So I aimed for 50 lbs in six months once I was a month or two down my path.
Today I stand before all of you (well actually I'm sitting, but still) to give you good news. As of last weekend which marked my six month to the day I sat 51 lbs down from what I was when I started six months earlier. I do not need to sit here and tell everyone how proud of myself I am, how proud of me other people are, or for that matter how much better I feel... Those are a given to anyone who as pushed as hard as I have, a given to anyone who has craved sweat the way I have, or to anyone who has lived in a Gym as much as I have for the past six months.
I do have to tell you though that this is not the end, this is rather just the begining. I've revised my final goal to an additional 20 lbs lower. This will put me at 240, or roughly 90lbs from my starting goal. I hope (hope being the key word as this is getting harder by the day) to accomplish this within six months. This means that by February 1st I hope to stand before you a full 90 lbs less than I did a year earlier.
The only differance between now and than, is now whether I win or lose this battle, I have still won the war.
*To the future, present, and past. Without the past I could have never made the present, and without the present the future would look significantly larger*
