I was the chubby kid growing up until I hit my teens, I worked out off and on from then until now, in addition to living a Rock and Roll lifestyle conisisting of eating whatever I wanted, and lots of booze, sometimes being in better shape than others, but the overall bodyfat percentage gradually rose up throughout the years. in August of 2009, I was up to 315 lbs, and in September, I became Jaundice, and went to the hospital with liver problems. The first doctor made the assumption that I had hepatitis because I'm a tattoo artist, but I knew that I didn't as I'm very careful and very clean with my work. Finally a specialist confirmed that I had damaged my liver from Anabolic supplements over the years (I assumed they were safe as I bought them at a well known nationwide chain of health food stores). I was very afraid when they were discussing liver transplants knowing that I'd never qualify for one, with no insurance and most photographs of me show me holding an alcoholic beverage. But the specialist (her name is Catherine Frenette and she is an awesome Doctor) took care of me good after I was released from the hospital. When I was released, I was down to 247lbs, but it was an unhealthy 247. I gained some of my weight back, but it was mostly more bodyfat. I realized when I was getting better (quit drinking cold turkey) that I had a second chance, so I saw the P90x infomercial a few times, looked into it and decided that the Insanity program was what I needed first, so here I am, I started at 267.8 lbs on Insanity and it's all falling off like crazy. When I'm done with the Insanity program, I'm going to try P90x. So far, I'm very happy with the programs and the results they have given me, and I'm glad that I'm here today to do it. 7 months without booze, eating clean, and doing this program have given me much more positive results than anything I've done in the past.
