Sean Michael here.

I've found out that throughout my young adult life I've always been more fascinated and interested in non-active sports. Such as frisbee and golf. I've never really enjoyed running or playing football.

I took to video games my early 20's

I gained weight... 140 extra pounds to be exact. I weighed 275 at 25 years old I was extremely out of shape. But If I continued this lifestyle of not cooking at home, eating fast food practically 3 times a day, No exercising in my life and doing nothing but play video games

It was going to lead me down a path of a morbid, depressing young adult life.

Or even worse. Death.
