Day 12 Reflecting on Day 9 & 10

Day 8 I worked out with my trainer Funsho from NYSC. Let me tell you he is the anti-traditional straight guy. He is so comfortable around gay men, he is inquisitive and it helped him understand why so many gay men go to the gym to work out. He really gave me the work out of an athlete, He tries to drain me out of every bit of strength that I have just so I can look good the next day and it pays off!

Day 9 I arrived that night to Fire Island and in which most of my friends this was their first time ever on the island, for me this was the 7th time I've visited the island. I'm waiting on the day where I lose count. I love the fact that no matter where you are on the Cherry Grove, you can absolutely feel free to walk around in your underwear or your swimtrunks. The people there are all about stroking your ego. You may feel like crap but they will make you feel like a million bucks and I ate it all up minus the calories

Day 10 was particular special because that was the official beach party on Fire Island. All the bloggers were there Derrick Briggs, Ryan Drake (whom I did not see at all), The XD Experience was there, Shawn QT and his lover Remarkable (who are the cutest pair of shawties) and of course myself the amateur was there looking amazing. Something about that day really allowed me to let loose. I haven't lost any weight but my body is looking better than it did when I started school. I definetely wasn't as FAT as I was last year. Dare I show you the pictures? I walked up and down the beach and all it took was a smile and a hello and a "let me get yo' number". It worked! I'm wondering what in the world changed because it sure in hell wasn't my body. My confidence was at a 60 out of 100 but each number that I got from each dude boosted me up slowly but surely and by the time the beach party was done, my confidence shot up to 100. I had men all good looking of all ages, all sizes, all races trying to get at me and most of all they were nice! I wish I could've had a camera follow me around so I can find out what did I do differently that Saturday to make me a dick-magnet.

This is only Day 12 of my 225 Day journey, let's see what it all look like at the finish line.
