BE fearless.

So here I am, 3:36am still awake, bored as hell. So I guess this is the best time to start something big. This blog may not be big to anybody else, but to me its HUGE. This is where I will be charting my weight loss. I've been overweight for basically all my life, I've weighed over 400 pounds since 10th grade in High School. With my 25th birthday rapidly approaching, its time to change. So now is the time to lose the Beast.

Only my closest friends would know this, but the Beast is my favorite character from The X-Men comics/movies/animated series. I related to the X-Men, especially Beast, in many ways due to the way people reacted to them. Beast is a big guy, bigger than anyone else in his school before joining the X-Men, who was picked on, called names, made fun of, and basically treated like a monster by everyone who saw him. That is exactly what I went through all throughout school and my childhood. Unfortunately the X-Men don't really exist for me to join, so I just had to deal with the abuse.

My mission now as the leader of my own one man X-Men is simply to defeat that which has been holding me back. ME. The overweight me that has been afraid to go out and get active for fear that someone might see me and laugh or makes jokes about the way I look.

So here is the beginning of a life changing battle that will destroy a 400+ pound boy who watches life pass him by, and create a healthy man without fear.
