I'm a 23 year old man and i weighed about 205-210 lbs around 4 months ago, i carried it well but still over weight.
I was happy with my life, I had a beautiful fiance and while i was working out it was entirely for her. She left me as she was no longer attracted to me and I was devastated. I moped around for a month and gained another 5-10lbs. One day I looked in the mirror before work and was disgusted with what i saw.
I made a decision that day. After work i went and signed up for the gym. My best friend is going to school to be a personal trainer and I had him make me a work out plan. I've been hitting the gym 4 days a week for the last 3 months (sometimes 5 if i'm feeling depressed) This time I am working out for myself and not only is it more fun, I am able to push myself harder because of it.
I am now in the 180-185 lbs range, I can see my collar bone again, and I don't have to flex to see muscle!! (i used to be a football player so the muscle was there)
When i started this journey I was unable to run for a full minute. Now i'm running 4.5 km in 30 minutes without stopping. My next goals are to finish losing the belly and next summer (or the summer after depending on progress) I am going to run a 10K
I looked in the mirror this morning, my chest is (for the first time since I cant remember) actually larger than my belly.
I still have a ways to go but I can say for the first since my ex left me that I am happy and for the first time in my life i can say I am happy with my body!
