Quadrennial Post

The big thing with me lately: I quit smoking 10 months ago and quit drinking over 7 months ago. I had gotten up to 250 pounds, was hungover most of the time, and was having some pretty bad heart problems. Surprisingly, of the two, the drinking was the hardest to quit. Everyone who has quit these habits talks about how much better they felt after

Nice update. I'm sorry you were having heart issues, but I'm so glad that you're taking care of yourself. It still freaks me out now that I'm an adult that "taking care of myself" is something I have to do actively. When I was younger that wasn't so much of an issue.

The over 30 metabolism is the worst part. I used to live on beer, Dr. Pepper, and fast food and I would hover at about 170 pounds which is pretty skinny for a 6'4 guy. I looked like a giant boobless woman. I'm glad that I'm a little more "man-shaped" now, but this gut and moobs have got to go.
