It's been 5 years and I am finally getting close to having a decent body. The biggest thrill is that people on the street, shopping malls, etc ask if im a bodybuilder and guys are saying things to me like - "You have the kind of body I want." or "Someday Ill look like you," etc. What makes it all the sweeter is that I am getting divorced from a woman who constantly criticized my body improvements for the past 5 years and did everything she could to tell me subtly that I had no sex appeal/attraction for her - all that after 17 years of marriage!
Long story short - Im starting a new life an feeling pretty good about that aspect of my life. I want to continue to make progress and next year do a comp. And dammit I want to win! or at least place!
