If you can believe it or not the first pic here was me in December when I first started working with my coach. I was 233lbs of dog shit. Second one was beginning of February I bulked to 257lbs. And last one was my latest check in pic from 2 weeks ago at 212lbs. Total recomposition of mass. I've cut 45 pounds of fat and probably put on 20 pounds of muscle.

Something I may or may not have mentioned is im a recovering addict. I'm a human with flaws. So my most recent detox trip was in November. I got out and pretty much changed the channel of my addiction to fitness. And when I say addiction to fitness that's really what it is. It runs the food I eat. When I can eat and when I can sleep. I havent gone on many dinner dates with my girlfriend because I can't really eat these hearty meals with all the flavor goodness, and I LOVE to eat. I'm constantly criticizing myself and beating myself up if I have a bad workout or the scale doesn't move enough to my liking. Sometimes I wish I could just not give a fuck.

But since hopping on reddit and getting all the amazing feedback from you guys and the love and support here, I feel like you guys are now a major part of why I keep going. I love all you guys. You guys help me more than you know. To be honest last month I had a slip up in my sobriety. And when I start that I go all in. But a huge reason why I nipped that in the bud is because I owe it to you guys to keep going and give you the best version of me.

As much as you guys appreciate my posts, I appreciate you guys x10. You guys keep me going. You keep me on the right path to stick with this lifestyle. The friendships I've made and the ability to be honest with you guys is amazing, and I'm truly thankful for each and every single one of you.

Your friend,
Danny
