This month’s update, not much progress (At least weight-wise). My energy level, restored! Now it’s time for the real work.

A recent doctor’s visit revealed my new weight classification, “Obese.” #changeiscoming #stayingfocused 

Months of inactivity, prescribed steroids and poor eating habits (especially during the busy season), for me, brought the wrong kinds of results. Now, for the turn-around! #staytuned
