I served in the Canadian Military and that was the pinnacle of my life; a turning point for me. Before that, I had no direction, no motivation, and most of all no idea what hard work really meant. For those who do not know me, I had the honour to serve my country. But what does that really mean? It meant early mornings, late nights, exhausting training activities, discipline, and the will to go on. I learned respect for others but most of all respect for myself. There were so many days I wanted to give up; to throw in the towel. I thought I wasn’t cut out for the army. I missed my family and friends. But I knew this was something I wanted to accomplish. Many people did not understand why I joined and discouraged me. Some thought I’d never make it and sometimes I didn't even think I’d make it through basic training. I needed to remind myself everyday why I made that choice. I used the negativity from others as FUEL. Doing this was my life, it meant giving up part of my youth so that I was ready to fight for freedom. But how does this relate to where I am today? Through my experience in the military, I was in the best shape of my life; I was disciplined. Once I left the military my lifestyle inevitably changed, so to get back to that state was something I strived to do every single day. I experimented every single diet. I worked out hard 7 days a week. Becoming a husband and father has taught me one thing, time is not on my side. But all of us have the same 24 hours so I was determined to find a solution that fit into my lifestyle while still giving me the results I wanted. Balance is so important. That is when I figured out a way to make eating healthy and nutritious easy, sustainable, and still give me the time I wanted to dedicate to my family and friends. Let’s go on this journey together.
