16 (110 lbs) to 22 (135 lbs) — I was only really consistent in the gym for the past 2 years. Main focus was to grow quads and glutes.

11 to 25. Waiters always called me sir and I couldn’t understand why.

Not too long ago, I could see myself dying early. I weighed about 263 lbs at 5’11” and was 22 years old. I found this photo on my computer. I have not seen this picture in years and can say it reminded me of an everyday struggle. I now love myself and will never fall back down that path.

Double jaw surgery. This is by far the best decision I have made in my life, worth the frustration over insurance coverage and the money. I’m a new person and I smile constantly.

This is the before of a very transformational appointment. Days before her 13th birthday she decided to come in for her first ever haircut. Coming from a family of dreadlocks, she’s had her hair locked since her hair was long enough to do so. Meaning those blonde ends you’re seeing is her baby hair.

The vet said Zazzles, my cat that lives with my mom now, needed to lose 26 pounds. My mom used to leave dry food out all the time, along with feeding him wet food, and we took that away. Also, we changed to a healthier wet cat food with real meat.

12 to 29, same shirt, same size, but I’m probably more weird now than I was then.

So I recently moved into my first home and thought: 'I wonder what a power wash could do to the garden?'

Stay in a caloric deficit and don’t let others tell you who you are.
