It has been exactly one year since my friend, M&M read me the paragraph from a book he was about to give me that described me and “why” I was skinny fat. I didn’t want to hear it. I had been “hearing” it for over two years, ever since my friend Larry had challenged me to have my body composition tested. I had made enough changes and had tried eating better. I had worked my butt off working out and still my condition persisted. I hadn’t given up but I was disheartened for sure.
That morning, at NSC, I began to read the book that M&M had read to me. I devoured it and immediately decided this would be my last attempt before giving in to taking the medications that my doctors so badly wanted me to take. I went primal AND I began a disciplined approach to what I call the 3P’s. Push ups, pull ups, and planks.
Today, one year to the day later, my numbers are all where my doctors want them to be, none of them can believe how they got there however. I am taking no medications and have never felt better. My CORE has never been stronger. It was hard work getting started but it’s easy peasy, lemon squeezy now. Funny, huh.
Thank you Larry for pushing me to know my numbers. Thank you M&M for caring enough to push me further. AND, thank you Miss for pushing yourself to find new ways to feed me meat, fruit, and vegetables that make me want more.
I am becoming BTL. I am a work in process. I am working on my CORE. I am blessed with a few true friends and a strong Greek Comanche. I am celebrating my one year anniversary not settling with being named “skinny fat.” AND, I like it…
BUILT TO LEAD 
You’ve gotten pretty darn good at your least favorite “P” also, the pudh-up!
Keep up the great work and thanks for including me. As you keep saying, “together we improve”
