Well, let's start this off by saying welcome to my new blog. I am Jeremy Davis, and have recently decided to make a blog to log some of the information and journey on which I took to become a healthier, more complete, well rounded me.
Now, this will obviously feature much information and accomplishments I have achieved, but first and foremost, I want you to know it is not all about me. I can only do what god has granted me the ability to do through His strength, but thank God He allowed me to travel this journey!
Two years ago I weighed in at a whopping 405 pounds wearing a size 52 in the waist, that's big even for someone with a 6'1" frame! I had been overweight and obese most all of my life. I remember weighing over 200 lbs in 5th grade and hitting the 300 mark in the 8th grade! Being fat was nothing new to me, but it had begun to get old to me. And I really grew tired of my life and wanted something better. I decided one day to begin a weight loss journey around July of 2010. I set out with a goal to lose 120 lbs. I thought it was impossible, but gave me something to shoot towards. Through watching how I eat, exercising, and having a little bit of knowledge, I have been able to meet that goal and surpass it. VERY SURPRISING TO ME.
Over the next couple of weeks, I am going to be blogging about things that I face, because I am not yet where I want to be myself. I will also blog and give tips and tricks I have learned along the way. I am no professional, I don't have a magic diet, and I don't take a magic pill. But, I have a desire to change, a will to make it happen, and have learned discipling along the way. If Jeremy Davis can lose weight, ANYONE can lose weight. Hope you enjoy!
Love hearing your story, Jeremy. I'd love to see a post about what your big "a-ha moment" was that was the catalyst to get you started. You have done an amazing job!
