Now I may not be the Six million dollar man but in a sense "we have the technology"...
I am Nathan Santiago (of course, not my real name) 6ft something, 200 something and a whole lot of everything.
For those of you who know me, I was always a chubby fella.. but the only down side is that I'm fragile as a glass. Its been almost 3 years now, since I started to lose and gain weight. I have tried every diet you could thing of; low carb, low fat and etc. I have also become a gym rat where I would always pick gym back then over some booze or party.
But trying to be fit is not an easy job especially when you have an imaginary tag saying injury prone. It's a commitment and a lifestyle that one must follow for the rest of his mediocre life.
At the start, the reason why i wanted to lose weight was because I wanted to look different. I had a self-confidence of a peacock. And it was so low that I even avoided talking to my crush (silly me.hahaha)
so back then I decided to change to show people a different side of me.. ENNNGk, wrong move, my planned failed.
Later on, I finally realized something; that if you want to change, do it for yourself not for others.
then after that, everything fell into place and I was doing better.
I have reached my goals a dozen time already. In one way or the other, I have achieved only a few "belly off warriors" have attained. But due to some twisted strike of fate, those success would always be accompanied by sheer bad luck.
I think I've spent more time in rehab (uhh, no not the one that drug abusers go to) than a normal old person would ever.
It has been really annoying, every time I reach my full potential whether its physically or athletically, i would always seem to end up in a clinic. Partly it's my fault, being wreckless and all.. Being blinded by a foolish fact that we are only young once..
I used to say, " Before, I can rock the rim, now the only thing I can rock is my bed..."
Man, this yo-yo effect is getting pretty old. I'm in rehab again and finally I'm getting better..
Yesterday, I started working out again.. but not my usual weight or rep range.
It feels good. I have my ecstasy again..
But now I'm gonna take it easy unlike the old days.. I'll try to be more careful and stop being hard headed.. I do want to see my own grand kids some day.. so this is the perfect opportunity to change..
PROJECT: NATHAN has commenced.. If you want to be part of it then enlist up..haha
By December, hopefully, no not hopefully but surely...
I'd feel like a million bucks...
so stay tuned..
