Seven years of stuttering, stumbling, and false starts, but never giving up (32M).

In 2015 I weighed over 300 pounds.

In 11 days, I'm making my amateur kickboxing debut at 185 pounds.

I've had to struggle through some bouts of depression, injuries, alcohol abuse, you name it. But all things yield to diligence.

If I can do it, you can do it too! Don't give up because of a setback. Don't give up because it doesn't happen overnight. Don't give up, ever.
