Um, it's embarrassing. I was at a fraternity function up in the mountains. Long story short, I had a wild night. Then I woke up, having peed myself during my sleep, and I got too close to the huge bonfire we had last night. It was still burning and I was too close.

So my pants caught fire and people were like "(name) you are on fire!" And I didn't realize it till I looked down and started rolling. Since we didn't have water (we had consumed large quantities of beer :lol:), they had milk and Gatorade to put out the fire.

I regret it though. I was actually supposed to be some place else since I had a commitment with them. You see, I was a budding cyclist who wanted to be a semi professional. I was on a sponsored cycling team. After that accident, I had broken off with my team. Another thing is that, cycling is a cutt-throat sport. Cyclist spend YEARS to build up their cardiovascular system to optimal levels. In essence, my undoing came over night.

I couldn't do anything for 3 to 4 months. Even when I did recover, I was absolutely demoralized. I stopped working out. The only thing I could fall back on was being in my fraternity. It was fun but it got to a point where I used alcohol and cigars as 'coping' points.

So right now, I'm over weight and I just joined a gym yesterday. I worked out for the first time today and I will probably be super sore tomorrow.

So obviously my life has been a train wreck of sorts. I don't drink anymore. I wasn't an alcoholic but it was that I used it as a coping mechanism. It's all my fault basically so I can't blame anyone else. It will take me, tops, a solid year and a half of working out day in and day out to get back to where I was. I used to ride, literally, 3 hours a day, 5 days a week.

Cyclist, IMO, are the most dedicated athletes on the planet. You'll never know what they go through unless you become one of them.

Understand fully...


Two years ago, I started working out for the first time in like 4 years. I was so overweight. I posted about it here on AD how I was going to try to get back to my old days of being an exercise freak. Two years later, I have lost so much and I run, swim, dance, weightlift and so much more.

I am still getting thinner and thinner to this day. Many people at my work are so shocked that the weight still continues to drop.

I am loving it. :)
