Starting Point:

Height: 5′ 10″
Weight: 275 lbs

About me: Jason is considered an IT wonder-child in his field. This 28 year old IT professional has put his carer in front of his health for the past 9 years. The long hours in the office sitting behind a wall of computers is really starting to show in his gut area. This wasn’t always the case for Jason, he is a former State Champion cyclist and All State high school swimmer.

Reasons: My reasons are obvious. I don’t like the way I look, feel, and I can’t enjoy the things I used to love to do. My weight is really starting to effect the way I do things and it’s time I take control of my life again.

Challenges I expect: One word; Motivation… I have a reall hard time motivating myself. Thats probably half the reason I’m in this mess. I’ve dieted and excersised before, lost the weight and lost the motivation. Like most people I rebounded right back past the weight I started at. I’m hoping that by working on this site as a team, and with community involvement I will have the support needed to get motivated and start changing my life.

Level: I’m not going to lie to you or myself. My level of fitness right now is absolutely awful. I’ve like to think I’ve been hitting the gym or gone out running fairly regularly but I haven’t. The only exerciser I’ve been doing has been a weekly game of soccer however I took December off from that.
