Currently (06/2024) I’m at 260. I had a kitchen flood in 2020 which resulted in regressing to fast food and gaining weight back. + +This year I’ve been ultra focused on diet and exercise. Burning more calories than I’m taking in. + +The second half of this year I’m ultra focused on being CTO (build/ship/sell products and services), and performing at my maximum capacity while doing so .

I’ve been on a journey for a year to completely eliminate preservatives/additives/stabilizers (PAS) from my diet. If I can’t see/pronounce something, I don’t want it in my body. Since focusing on the removal of PAS, my quality of life has significantly improved.
