Growing up in a small town in northern califronia (Lodi), i was always the skinny kid, tall and skinny. i was always a fast runner, could out run anyone. the stamina and endurance that no one could come close to. I could eat whtever  wanted, sit down and eat a whole in one sitting. Never gaining weight, 28" waist, 36" inseam, 125 Lbs.

Partied, smoked, drank and did no regular excersize EVER!

Fast Forward a few years, too much fast food, too many drugs, too much alcohol & too many cigarrettes, i feel terrible. Tired all the time, unable to focus.

So i clean up everythng, try to live right, but the fast food mmmmm can't get rid of it. I even quit smoking, my weight goes up, and up, and up. I quickly double my weight, and jump up to a 40" waist.

I feel Horrible, i have quit alcohol, drugs, ciggarrettes, & i am a fat bastard. I'm depressed, tired, my back hurts and can't focus!

So try to loose weight, pills, teas, salads; but nothing.

i do nutrisystems, i loose 50 pounds! i'm still depressed, tired, my back hurts and have trouble focusing.

i hire a persoanl trainer, i get some stamina, i get muscles, i get a little energy, my back feels better.

I adapt a new nutrition plan. Live enzymes, alkaline based nutrients, vegatables & Protien. Eastern Philosophy in nutrion & health.

Train for a  1/2 marathon, maintain healthy eating habits, moderate excersize.

Now I am Happy, I sleep better at night waking up feeling refreshed, my body seems to absorb food better, i feel more energetic, i can focus,  my back no longer hurts the way it used to, i alway handle stress much better & i have found a spiritual energy that emintes from within.

obviously this does not happen over night, it takes disicpline.
