ive always had a lanky body type.. long and skinny limbs, small torso... but that didnt stop me from being a fat kid. I was a fat kid in elementary school, a fat kid in middle school, and a fat kid in high school... basically bull****ted my way through, failing a class or two but getting through it and getting into the only college i applied to
after my freshman year of college, i was tired of being a fat kid; i was weighing around 265lbs and i doubt i could have benched 135lbs a single time
so that summer, i decided to diet... HARDCORE diet.. i mean eating a bowl of mini wheats for breakfast, a bowl of lettuce for lunch, and a light seafood dinner, all while going to the gym every day without fail
the drastic change in my diet caused me to lose 30 lbs in my first month, and within 6 months i had gone from 265lbs to 180lbs... my diet became oatmeal and boca burgers... and the change was so extreme that my friends were making sure i didnt have an eating disorder/drug problem, and when i saw people from my high school up in boston, they didnt recognize me (which was a bonus)
so around june of 2002 i started reading about proper nutrition, and learned that my technique of going to the gym every morning on an empty stomach wasn't the best way to get quality muscle while keeping fat levels low... i started eating more (but still healthy), and since then ive gained about 30 pounds of solid weight that is hardly any fat, since i keep a fairly good regimen of going to the gym for morning cardio and afternoon lifting
and i started posting on this site when i was working at my second law firm... basically killing time in between legal prep
