So I&rsquo;m going to eat more.</p> <p>When I started at a weight of 316 pounds around Christmas of 2015, I didn&rsquo;t have a plan or methodology. I didn&rsquo;t have any notions to exercise. My body was in pain from simple things like standing or walking, and I was using a walking stick to get around.</p> <p>A few months into my journey, simply &ldquo;trying to eat right&rdquo; wasn&rsquo;t enough. I was hovering around 305 pounds. My youngest brother got married and I missed the ceremony, because the walk from the parking lot to the ceremony was long and I was hobbling on a walking stick. I tried to smile for everyone but in truth I just wanted to lay down in a shallow hole and have everyone throw dirt on me. I couldn&rsquo;t endure any longer.</p>
