Dorsal view 09 Jan 10

Well here is the first in three photos to show you where I am starting from. I have a long way to go but I am at least started on this journey to a healthier and more fit me. This dorsal/back shot was taken by my trainer and as you can see I have some serious love handles to work off.

Lateral view/Dexteral - 09 Jan 10

This lateral/dexteral view is the second photo documenting my starting point. As you can see I have some work to do, but with some exercise and proper eating I fully intend on losing the belly and getting back into condition. Notice the dark splotches on my cheeks – this is a sign of insulin resistance (in my case Type II Diabetes) named Acanthosis nigricans, my doctor and nutritionist both tell me that I lose the weight this condition will correct itself. I sure hope so…

Anterior view 09 Jan 10

Well there you have it; this is where I began my journey towards a healthier and more fit me on 10 January 2010. It is going to be a great New Year.

That is all for now; until next time – Cheers!
