What inspired you to start your fit/health journey?
What Started Me on the fitness journey was i saw a Picture I took a few weeks earlier at my Godbrother’s wedding and saw How Big I had gotten.
Then the Next day my best friend SLEEPY brown sent me a picture of myself on INSTAGRAM. We were making fun of each other and I saw that picture and was like DAAAAMN!

What has been your biggest challenge you have faced in your fitness journey, and how did you overcome it?
No Challenges Really. I’m Too Motivated. Every now & then I want a Subway sandwich but I pass because I took Bread outta my nutrition.
How did you stay motivated?
I started being Really excited when I could see my Strong Jawline & I went to the restroom and looked down and was like..”Heeey THERE He is!” Lol.
