UNC Golf's STORY

I grew up playing every sport under the sun. Baseball and golf during the summer. Soccer during the fall, basketball during the winter, and cross country/track in the spring. I played basketball and golf in highschool and was probably in the best shape of my life in 10th grade. Decided not to go on playing for the school after that year, do to several reasons. I still played golf (obviously I didn't stay in the same shape, lol). I slowly gained weight over the last two years in highschool. I would say I went from arond 135 or 140 in 10th to around 150 or 155 my senoir year. I was a little noticeably bigger, but I was extremely skinny before, so I was okay with myself at this weight. However when I left for college, my lifestyle choices and diet dove through the basement cement HARD. I went from around 155 starting in the Fall of 05' to about 180 at one point in March of 06'. To be honest I didn't even notice, I went to the gym and played basketball a lot the first semester, but I got Mono in November, and I just fell into a horrible slide. I kept trying to make committments to myself that I would get back down but it never happened, the closest I got was probably just barely under 170. Going into the Fall of 07' I began to notice something was a little off with my stomach. For about a month I dealt with the constant theme of being in the bathroom more than anywhere else. I didn't even have to eat until 2 or even 3 pm somedays because my stomach (Colon) knew that it didn't want food, because that just made it hurt. I finally said enough was enough and went to the doctor. I told him my situation, and they took some samples and said that I just might have had a stomach bug or virus (I knew this wasn't the case), went on the meds and got a little better, but it was just like putting a blanket over the problem. When I went home for christmas break I weighed in at 157!! So you can tell how much weight was lost around 15 lbs in about 3 months, but obviously not doing it the right way. I was shocked, and couldn't believe my weight had gotten that low. I had an appointment with a GI specialist in my hometown who is amazing. He determined that I had case of severe acute ulcerative collitis. I never once felt sorry for myself or thought that this would be a hardship, from that day on I began my jounry to good health and fitness. Its now been almost 4 months since I was diagnosed, and by the middle of May I will be completely off the Predisone I am currently taken. I allowed my weight to move back up as I introduced more and more foods back into my diet. Once I got to around 165 I knew I was feeling healthy again and it was time to get on a lifestyle cut diet, to really get in shape. This is where this log comes in tracking my progress from 166.6 to below 150. I lost 1.8 lbs my first week, and I'm loving the cardio increase and the never ending endurance I feel with my PW. I look at what has fallen upon me, and I honestly believe it was a blessing, it happened for a specific reason, and I'm just lucky enough to know I must take this one problem and turn it into nothing but a million positives for myself and others.

Overall
PW seems to be giving me a decent amount of energy to really hit my muscles hard, and allowing me to progress my cardio to higher levels each week. I had stomach cramps all day, which really bothered me during my workout, but I pushed through them as much as I could. I did one set of abs and than quit because my stomach area was hurting so bad. Overall it was a good workout and I'm looking forward to furthering my progress.

Thoughts
Decent day of eating stuck close to what I want my macros to be, carbs could be a little lower, and my total caloric intake could be a little higher. Other than that a good day of eating.
