I can also contest to your addiction buddy, as I do recall a Pearl Jam concert that you couldn't make due to the conflict of missing a work out or eating the wrong foods on a road trip. Reflection is a funny thing, you should join me on one of my trips and see where your mind takes you. cheers Brian Good post buddy,

I respect your hindsight revelation that your addiction to working out was no joke, but let me share some of the peripheral benefits of that addiction while growing up with you: 1) Look at those hot girls on the beach- Jamie, can you go over there and talk to them for us? We’ll be right behind you. 2) I was 17 and looked 13. You were 15 and looked 21. I can’t believe you were able to buy beer for everyone at 15 with no fake ID. Great job with Further Fitness Jamie- keep up the good work. Kieran Great piece Jamie.

Boy did I have them hoodwinked.... Seriously, your piece is great, full of honesty and emotion, and extremely well-written. You're turning into quite a writer. Having had the fun to know you when you were 19, I recall how obsessed you were with body image and size when we first met. How you ate every two hours, shit every hour, and never missed a workout. Keep up the good writing, maybe there's a book somewhere in your future.
