Progress Documentation: 9 Months of Training

A "progress" shot of me trying to get in shape. At the very beginning, in June of 2014 I was #245. First I cut out drinking hard stuff, and eating junk food. Then I began walking everyday in the park next to my house. 6 months ago I began training at the local MMA Academy. Three months ago I began to train with Lisa in Yoga. Last month she began weight training me using body-building techniques. At the lightest my weight dropped to #218. At the time of this photo I was at #224. While not in perfect shape, I am a lot stronger, flexible, and my endurance has increased. This is all so new to me, and I find I am really getting into all this physical exertion. This photo was taken about 2 hours after a particularly interesting Yoga session with Lisa.
