My Story

Halfway to my goal after losing 65 pounds. No calorie counting, no perfect plan. Just a GLP-1, lifting week after week, and figuring it out one rep at a time.

From Code to Muscle: My Journey

I spent years putting my health last. Long days coding, late nights, and quick fixes that never lasted. The weight kept creeping on, my energy faded, and I felt stuck behind a keyboard in every way.

In 2024, I finally hit a breaking point. I did not track calories or worry about every bite. I started a GLP-1, kept showing up to lift week after week, and the weight began to come off. I have lost 65 pounds so far. My arms are sore, I am still halfway to my goal, but I feel better than I have in years.

I have tried different routines, failed at plenty, and learned what really matters: consistency, patience, and showing up even on the days I did not want to. This is not just about muscle. It is about getting my energy and confidence back in midlife.

This site is my open notebook. It has the wins, the mistakes, and the moments that feel bigger than they look. If you are in your 40s or 50s and starting over, you are not alone. I am figuring this out one rep at a time.
