The Four Hour Body!

I am so proud of my husband! The last few months he has worked his butt off (literally!) and lost a lot of weight. He's had such amazing discipline, it's been very inspiring. He looks so great!!!! It's amazing to look back at pictures and notice the difference from the first of the year until now.

 Before

After

In February, he came across this book, The Four Hour Body by Tim Ferriss. He read his other book, The Four Hour Work Week. He liked it so much he gave this other one a try. He loved it. It turns out Brett's body was actually made for eating this kind of diet. He used to get heartburn really bad and he hasn't had it since he has changed the way he eats. So that was a bonus! 

His starting weight was around 250. In four months, he has lost almost 50 lbs!!!!! He's currently 202. A month into his diet he decided to get his body fat tested. He was expecting to be in the 20th%. But to his surprise he wasn't terribly overweight like he thought, he was 17%. They told him an average male his age should be anywhere from 12-16%. That was very encouraging to him. He kept working hard and went back a month later. He was at 13% body fat and the rest was muscle. He was so excited!!! 

I couldn't be more proud of him for the example he has been to me and the kids. He looks great and  feels great! We are all proud of you Brett. Congratulations!
