Male - 47 years old
I broke my neck (C5/6) in 2001 and was initially paralyzed from the neck down. I've recovered substantially but not completely which has affected by activity level over the years. At the time of injury, I was a very athletic and fit 204 lbs.
By summer of 2009 I was a very soft and out of shape 224 lbs. Yikes! I've been back to the gym 3-4 days a week since August and have basically got back to my pre-injury weight. However, I don't have the same strength so I've set my new goal to a more lean 195 lbs.
Wish me luck!
