I’m a 22 year old male at 6’0 and 250lbs. After high school sports and going to college I put on about 50 pounds. I’ve dealt with weight issues that have stemmed from anxiety and depression since I was a kid, and it hasn’t been until recently that I realized I’m the one holding myself back from so much happiness in my life because I’ve yet to take care of myself and my own internal struggles.
Tomorrow I want to get back in the gym and attack. I haven’t held myself accountable in a long time so I thought putting this out into the world might help. It’s not going to be fun, it will suck, but dammit I know it is worth it. Studying Kobe Bryant and his “Mamba Mentality” has lit a fire inside me I haven’t felt since high school football. My coach used to tell us “Embrace the Suck” because in the end, you will succeed. That’s what I plan on doing.
This community is full of inspiring people and your journeys are beautiful. I hope to get to know some of you better during my personal journey of gaining control of my body and mind. Let’s “Embrace the Suck” together 💪🏼
