Hello everyone!
Well here I am - at 340 pounds - still the in shape athletic guy I have always been, ... inside my mind, ... but then I see a mirror, .. and WOW! WHO IS THAT GUY???
I was always known by my friends as "Star", "Rod the Bod", etc. Now, for the first time I actually see myself how I really and and how I really look. I am a mess. I try to eat better foods, smaller portions, etc, ... nothing helping whatsoever, ... climbed to over 340 pounds.
Have played in a popular rock band through the 80's, and a couple of years back we decided to get the band back together and do a new album, ...
My first indication was when we got out the old band UNIFORMS, ... looked like something a child would have worn. That was the first time I realized how big I was. And I did not LIKE IT. We played several times, .. but as I became more discouraged and depressed about the way I look, ... the practicing and playing has been cut down to almost nothing right now.
In fact the last time we played was a year ago at the Gothic Theater in Denver. Now I just lay around feeling sorry for myself.
Well it is time to get my life back, ... and after speaking with a couple of the fine folks on here, I realize that it will be "Baby Steps" as they say, ... but at least I will be walking toward become Rod the Bod once more.
I am very nervous about all of this, ... but am very sincere about it as well.
Wish me Luck!
Rod
