AWWWW YEAAAAAHHH!!!!

I'm a recovering fat kid!  In high school, I peaked at roughly 250 lbs...and not a healthy muscular 250, but an all sorts of 'shapes' body form.  I was out of shape and JoE used to pick on me by wall running on the lockers and pushing me onto the ground to embarrass me in front of girls that were embarrassed to be standing next to me.

I slimmed down a lot in college, but didn't really get serious about fitness until after graduation.  Post grad, my schedule balanced out, I could plan my meals, and there was way more time to work out.  After a lot of gym sessions, picking up full-court basketball again, and eating right, I've balanced out at a healthy 180 pounds, which for my height is decently healthy for my BMI.

 Look, I'm Jesus.  huhuhuhuh

Although I'm pretty satisfied with where I'm at, I still have a long way to go, and my new fitness goals are just getting harder and harder to attain.  On this blog, I'll be keeping track of my diet and workout regimens.  I probably won't keep up with it everyday, but...Enjoy, you fat bastards.

MY CORES!

Let me christen this blog with its first entry.

What's the purpose of this new blog? Lifestyle.

"But wait, JoE, didn't you already have that with that kind-of homoerotic blog with Jon Hamm and stuff?" Yea, and I'm still fat. Clearly, I chose the wrong celebrity for my theme. This time around, though, I'm feeling pretty good.

So, yea, the purpose. Well, hopefully it'll start as a chronicle of my continuing adventures with the dreaded weight problem and then blossom into something more! And by something more, I totally mean orgy parties.

There you go. If I don't succeed this time... then I will post a final entry... and kill myself. DUN DUN DUUNNNNNNN!!! Don't worry, it'll be awesome. Like, jumping into the lion den at the Atlanta Zoo with a broadsword.
