Reduce Body Fat, Build Lean Mass - My Physical Transformation Part 1

My name is Andrew Smith and I am the owner of The Complete Health Toolkit. I want to commence with my own story, so that you can be convinced that I understand the emotional (and even physical) pain that can be experienced when you don't look and feel as well as you know you can. Most people are unhappy with certain aspects of their health, whether it be their size, their fitness levels, or even lifestyle habits and decisions that they feel powerless to change, such as smoking, over-eating and excessive drinking.

I am not some fitness guru who has never struggled with his size and has never made an inappropriate food selection. I am not a naturally tallented athlete, who is not able to view things from your mind-set. In fact, I am just an ordinary man who has battled with his shape, has been a smoker and a drinker and has not always done what is ideal for his health!

The aim why I tell you this now is because I have been able to make advancements that have in fact impacted positively on my fitness and well-being. Believe it or not, I have really walked the self same path that I want to support and encourage you to tread. Your personal goals may be vaslty different to mine, but what you will begin to realise is that the method for success is the same. As I told you I have walked the path and now I want to assist you in your route. In fact, I have truly trodden this route twice and so I believe that what I am about to show you really has the abiliity to work for you!

Allow me to explain.

At the age of 18 I went to University to study Mechanical Engineering and for the 1st time in my life I had true independence. It was great! I was able to eat anything I wanted, as and when I wanted. I was able to drink and smoke as much as I liked and if I didn't want to do any fitness or sports then I didn't feel as though I had to! I could stay up late every night and do exactly as I chose!

I had an excellent time in my first year at University, but from what I have described, I am sure you can appreciate that my shape began to creep up! In fact, at the end of that 1st year at University I found out first-hand exactly how someone looks and behaves when they are obese! I almost remember to the day the moment where my body mass index (BMI) indicated to me that I was no longer just overweight, alternately I had become obese!

I would like to have been able to tell you that this was the time where I made the decision to improve. Deep down I wished to, but having excitement just seemed to be more important. I did start exercising and my weight did stabilise, but I was unable to drop the mass that I had already put on. I couldn't understand it! I was eating a marginally better diet, I was exercising 3 times per week and I only drank alcohol 2 or 3 times per week! Surely I was doing enough to reduce weight! It's likely this seems familiar.
