Last year a week before US Strongman Nationals, my bodyweight was 289.4 lbs. Today a week out I am 278.3 lbs, with the goal I had set to be below 280 lbs.

Since Nationals is earlier this year, I thought I would check where I was last year: 298 -> 278.3 down 20 lbs.

Much of the weight loss has been secondary to managing my type 2 diabetes and getting my A1C number down. Back in 2020-2021 I started to take control of my health and as I turn 40 this year I am more motivated than ever to take it to the next level.
