1 00:00:00,540 --> 00:00:02,620 my name is Andrew Garcia and I'm a 2 00:00:02,620 --> 00:00:05,800 polio at Rss Beaumont In 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:07,790 2019 I was a sophomore . Hard 4 00:00:07,790 --> 00:00:09,846 difference in high school and at the 5 00:00:09,846 --> 00:00:12,650 time I weighed 307 lb . Since then , 6 00:00:12,660 --> 00:00:15,830 I've lost £84 and I'm going to boot 7 00:00:15,830 --> 00:00:19,420 camp on August 2 2001 . I want to lose 8 00:00:19,420 --> 00:00:21,587 the weight because I was just tired of 9 00:00:21,587 --> 00:00:24,530 being the big kid . I want to join the 10 00:00:24,530 --> 00:00:27,150 marines because as a kid , I just 11 00:00:27,150 --> 00:00:29,730 always wanted to be in the military but 12 00:00:29,730 --> 00:00:31,674 never really thought I could do it 13 00:00:31,674 --> 00:00:33,841 because I never thought I could really 14 00:00:33,841 --> 00:00:36,063 eat the weight stand . The marines here 15 00:00:36,063 --> 00:00:38,286 in Beaumont helped me because they just 16 00:00:38,286 --> 00:00:41,010 motivated me to . They really pushed my 17 00:00:41,010 --> 00:00:44,080 boundaries . I think joining the 18 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,260 marines is going to benefit me because 19 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,040 it just opens up more doors . It's a 20 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,320 life and it just helps you with 21 00:00:53,330 --> 00:00:57,050 education , college and stuff advice I 22 00:00:57,050 --> 00:01:00,000 would give to anyone else that was just 23 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,610 ready to lose weight . And but couldn 24 00:01:02,620 --> 00:01:06,400 is more of a mental thing . It's all in 25 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,567 your head . You could you could really 26 00:01:08,567 --> 00:01:10,733 do anything you want if you really set 27 00:01:10,733 --> 00:01:10,360 your mind to it .
