Well my story is real short and sweet. I started getting a little belly around 12 did not think anything of it b/c i am a guy. well after that i gained a good bit of weight. in middle school i played football. the extra excercise kept the weight gain at bay for the most part. Then i got in to high school and then played freshmen football also that year i met a beautiful girl to who i am now married to. my sophmore year i started on the wrestling team and toned up a good bit. I worked really hard that year to get in shape. i was two weeks away from state finals and hurt my leg. I was not able to work out for the rest of the season. well then the season was over with and i had a lot of time that i spent doing nothing. by the time the next season roled around i had put on 50 pounds. that put me 16 at 215. I slacked of that year and quit the wrestling team and got my first job. well as most people my first job was mcdonald's. that was in 1997. working around fast food did not make it any easier. well after i graduated high school i went into management with them. i was working long hours and sometimes have 3 meals a day there. This went on until april 2006. i made it all the way to being a GM and decided if i wanted a change my job would have to change to. I am really good at reataurant management so i stuck with that. In may of 2006 i got hired as a restaurant manager for Cracker Barrel in Hammond, LA. this has made it easier to make better at work eating decisions.  I have been there a year now and am now starting to re-evaluate my home  life eating as well.  my wife had vsg 06/4/07, in the first month after her sergery  i lost 19 pounds. I have decided that since now i have less than 100 pounds to go i am going to try diet and excercise one more time.
