I was the typical guy that was in good shape during high school and college. During those times I was active and worked out diligently. I was around 160 pounds with a body fat percentage of 7%. I could eat pretty much whatever I wanted to and as long as I worked out and played some ball I was good to go. After college I stopped working out as much and steadily the pounds started to creep back on. I noticed that my pants were starting to get tighter and I had to buy bigger pant sizes. I finally hit the bottom when I noticed that fat rolls were starting to hang over my jeans. Although I was afraid I hit the scale and was mortified when I saw the 189 pounds show up. I had gained almost 30 pounds!

Monday, November 2nd, 2009If you’re like me you don’t have a ton of time to worry about eating properly throughout the day. But it’s not just the time factor that plays into trying to look good. I just love to eat food that tastes great and I don’t really want to give it up. Anyway, one night my wife and I were sitting on the couch and I was busy eating a huge bowl of ice cream just like I do every night. We happened to be watching one of those weight loss shows and I was busy making fun of them in between huge bites. My wife looked at me and said “You’re not too far from making yourself eligible for one of those shows.”

Sunday, November 1st, 2009I’ve always been the fat kid growing up. At the age of 11 I clocked in at 187 pounds. My parents are obese and I guess it is genetic. Of course I can’t blame it all on genetics. My main staples growing up had been McDonald’s and Pizza Hut. All throughout my school years I was tortured by unrelenting kids who would purposefully try and tear me down because of my weight. This made the problem even worse. I was eating because I was unhappy and at the same time unhappy because I was eating. I was caught in this vicious cycle of death that at its worst had me weighing in at 387 pounds at the age of 26.

ProV60, Labrada
Friday, October 23rd, 2009It was about three years ago that I stumbled upon weight training. I was training for my next mixed martial arts fight and was well on my way to going to the UFC. I was 13-0 and had won all of my fights by knockout. During a sparring session with one of the trainers I felt my knee pop and I hit the ground like a ton of bricks.

Lean Body for Her Review
Tuesday, September 29th, 2009Lean Body for Her by Labrada is a convenient and easy to use meal replacement powder that I have been using to supplement my diet and shed a few extra pounds. Meal replacement powders are a simple way to increase protein in your diet and allow you more control as to what goes in your body. Labrada has this system down to a science and provides an exact ratio of protein, carbs, vitamins, minerals, and essential amino acids. I love the convenience of this supplement because nutrients and vitamins are something I usually overlook when on a diet, but will never do so with Lean Body for Her. This great tasting meal replacement is a concentrated glass of the finest food nutrients.
