November of last year I started working on a "progression blog" showing my improvement in eating habits, working out and changing my lifestyle. Without saying to much I definitely went through a storm between then and March. I went through a rough break-up, was laid off from a great company because of "going into a different direction" I put back on at least 10-11 lbs and was losing myself.
I was angry & upset at my reflection, my thoughts on life, other people and of course myself in general.

I felt like I was losing again! I couldn't get a grip on life and I was falling. Stressed out over failing again then something happened once again. God stepped in and said "Remember what happened when you believed in me and stopped worrying about your problems?" It definitely snapped me back into place. I let go and let God take the wheel. I let a friendship naturally turn into a relationship (We weren't expecting it nor was it planned) and 4 months later here we are happy and still growing. Still on a job search BUT I have full confidence that I will get back on track with that, new book has the green light to officially from my publisher and I got my first movie role in a independent film "The Rise & Fall of Don Hazel" set to film this summer and released during next winter.
Now that I am back on track I started hitting the gym harder than before at the end of Feb. I started at home with p90x and then began going to the basketball courts to regain my wind and make cardiovascular improvements. At first I did P90X for like 3 days and said f*** that! lol I cant lie and then something hit me. I had to be consistent just like I tell my readers and folk who follow my career. I hit 230 again and now as of this morning stand at 216 lbs. I did the muscle confusion my old roommate and brother showed me and its been working. I also only eat fried foods maybe once a week and during the day only eat small increments like fruit, crackers and maybe a sandwich. 5-6 glasses of water a day and 3xs through the week go to the gym twice a day. I'll be twenty-nine 3 weeks from TODAY! Nothing wrong with making sure my body looks great AND THE producers and director of the film wont have it any other way lol.
When I released my first book I thought I was on a great path of being a motivational juggernaut, nothing else could go wrong and I was on my way to being a best seller author. I have learned so much within the past 3 yrs, I am still growing of becoming the man God wants me to be and I still make mistakes. I know over the past yr I have burned a few bridges (some not worth it & some very worth it) & I also know that it is our duty as men and women to proceed as though the limits of our abilities do not exist. That anything is possible and that even though some of our circumstances say that we're a certain way; we can OVER COME ANY AND ALL STORMS! I cant wait to share my new book, web series and film with everyone!
I love the way my body feels! The way its starting to look and how I feel as a MAN! I love how my thought process is beginning to dictate my soul and my actions much love!
