I used to be the "skronny" kid whos collar bone was always showing and looked unhealthy. I didn't eat much growing up along with a very high metabolism and being involved with a lot of sports I didn't put on weight. I was 135lbs graduating high-school (in the picture). After high-school ended and i stopped playing football i continued with the gym as it was the stress relief i needed. I worked out almost every day but didn't follow any sort of diet, didn't change my diet hardly at all and a year or so passed and i gained maybe 10lbs. Realizing that i was wasting my efforts I began to attempt to educate myself on nutrition and started eating a little more properly. Another year passed and i had gained about 15 lbs and was up to approx. 160lbs. Something inside of me finally clicked and I was sick and tired of putting all of this effort into the gym and still being average, I worked my ass off but didn't see results because of my diet. I finally committed myself to eating more and proper to get maximum results from the gym and here I am now around 210lbs and 6 years of being in the gym. Its been a long time coming and i have a long way to go to get where i want to be but sometimes you need to step back and take a look at where you've come from. Many hurdles have come and gone but shouldn't be forgotten. Remember that everyone sees the results but only you see the journey.
