History:
In high school I was 6'4" and 185lbs without effort. I went to college, living on my own I gained up to around 250lbs. I lost it after effort down to 220lbs. I Then gained up to 300lbs, then down to 215lbs. I maintained it for a while until I couldn't run anymore.
I used to do Krav Maga, Boxing, Archery, Marksmanship and worked as a security contractor until health issues. Once I couldn't run I started to gain, then I derailed on nutrition and couldn't get back on track.
The past 5 years has been some hell and struggle, financially, socially, career, health, credit, everything just crashed for a while. Extremely hard as I am incredibly Type-A by nature.
Currently:
This year has been the best so far, and I am finally getting my life back to where I feel good financially, career, school, socially, etc.
I work a part-time job as a government contractor, own a business, and I am going to school. My current GPA is a 4.0, my annual performance review was 147% productivity rating vs. the 100% requirement.
My job is sedentary, my school is online and sedentary, my life is sedentary, and my plate is so full to the brim of life priorities that I have little left in the tank to exert towards health and wellness, as sad and messed up as that is.
My fitness is the one thing I haven't been able to square away. I would like help to fix the issue, I even understand the science of health and fitness. Where I can't seem to bridge the gap is getting a plan built for my health/fitness that I will actually follow with everything else I have to do to keep my life together.
I understand it's my fault, and there is plenty of room to judge and criticize me, but I have been down this road enough times to know I need help if I really want to succeed moving forward.
