My story starts a year and a half ago. I was in a fraternity and eating food that was prepared for us. It was easy to overeat all the time because there was no limit. I weight 286 and did not think anything of it. My favorite sport to play was basketball and I was seeing myself get slower and slower. I decided to do P90X and was doing great. I lost 20 pounds and was 3/4 the way through. Then, things turned for the worse when I dislocated my left kneecap during a softball intramural game. It was one of the lowest points in my life because I could not even play the sport I loved. My grades did not slip, but my body and soul did. It took two more times dislocating my kneecap before I needed surgery. I let my relationship with God slip and created a huge hole in myself. Nothing I did helped me fill this hole that I had. It took me 5 months before I could even start working out at a light pace. After about 8 months, August 2011, I decided I need to change the way I am living my life or else I will eventually slip into depression. One word got me through this extremely tough time in my life...family. I could not have stayed positive without my family by my side. I owe most of my success in my life because of them. Since August, I went from 286 to 246 and am now loving life. I just started INSANITY because my goal is to weight 220 pounds, hopefully by the end of it. I have a great relationship with myself and God, who I owe all my success to. I would love to share my story to others and help them see how all of this can really help them too. I want to thank God, my family and friends for helping me through this crazy journey and I cannot wait for the roads ahead.
