GLOW UP! [24] to [28]
Started at 285 pounds, and got down to 170 pounds a couple months ago. Now I’m at 190-195 and feel great. The most recent period of weight loss was from October of last year to early June this year of 230 to 170.
Along with this, I started to dress better and become more confident in social settings. I used to be a hermit and stay inside and just draw, or write. Recently I’ve been going out more to bars and social events. Now I have gotten more into asking for photos, or candids, and the friends group I’ve made over the past couple of months has been huge on taking videos and posting more often.

Well, it’s an hour straight of him doing his bits. From a year ago, it’s all new material, but he does have recurring things bits from a couple years ago that are crowd favorites like harmonica’s, and the Dutchman’s key.
The fact that he can talk about absolutely nothing that makes sense for almost an hour, and it’ll still be funny is great.
He did a lot of stuff that was local and relevant to our state. Like for instance, he pulled out a picture of Caitlin Clark holding a perk 30 talked a lot about the governor and shit.
Next time he’s in Indiana I am going to get two shows back to back and see how much they change because I’ve always wondered how different a show can be night to night

Wow! Incredible work. It's amazing what losing weight can do to our personalities, hey? My life changed when I lost 70lbs.

Thanks! My wrist actually snaps down a bit more at the end of my follow through, but this photo was taken right after the ball released from my fingers.
The number one thing I do for cardio is Basketball so I ended up playing about 5-6 hours a week. Working on my jumpshot has been the number one thing that has helped me with weight loss.
