I'm excited...feeling better, feeling stronger...

It's been an amazing journey I've been on for the last 5 years...and I get this almost every time I meet or greet someone, even doctors - You don't look sick!!! I still haven't figured out what SICK looks like.

Oh sure there are always visible external things but what about the internal things? See I don't think I'm ill, it's my body I'm having a hard time trying to convince. haha
It has taken me 3 years to turn my habits around and made new ones, better ones. Still smoking...(my excuse, it's my only vise and I need it...lol)...but I have changed what I eat, and most importantly the Water I drink. I lost 58 big ones in about 3 months.

That's frig'n exciting to me.

I had to buy 2, 10 pound bar-bells because I couldn't use the 20's I had. They were too heavy. I use to bench 250 when I wrestled for DUQ back in the day...lol But I couldn't raise 20 pounds over my head enough times to be called exercise. Now I need more, the 20's are too easy now.
I stuck to the 80/20 Rule for the past 4 months and credit that to my feeling better and stronger. (80/20 = 80% Plant and 20% Meat) Diets don't work, this was a Life Style change for me, believe me!!!


And you know what? I love it!!! I did from the very starting, learning what to buy and what not too, or else I wouldn't have committed to it with all my heart. I knew it held merit. I somewhat kept the Worrier Diet in mind at the same time so I made sure I was also eating enough nuts and grains.

No more processed garbage. No sugars and salts that I don't get from raw foods...
...I won't bore you with the details...


I am excited and just wanted to share it since the Internet is where my Friends are...

Thanks for reading...
Ciao, Tony G.
