I became a member at a gym and always stayed active. At 6 ft. 3 ins., I also played competitive soccer and basketball in high school and for a local basketball team. So I was spared from having an increase in the stomach area, because I was always active. That was until I migrated to the United States to attend college.

I was active in a different way. The way of the mind, not any type of physical activity. Unless you counted walking to class, eating, sleeping and eating again. I did all the late-night fast-food binges between study breaks and hunger pangs. I am sure you’ve heard of a “late night drive by”. How about a late-night drive-thru outlet?
