Future Goals
In addition to using Instagram to help motivate others and
give advice, James said it helps him too.
“It did come down to, with me, wanting to, because the focused
goal I have is to be a personal trainer eventually and work with
people who are as obese as I was,” he explained. “To be able to
help them get up and get moving is the biggest … thing, and so
I post to try and help. If I inspire one person … it’s worthwhile.
And the filters are cool.”
James started to realize he wanted to be a personal trainer as
others would go to him for advice on dieting and weightlifting
because of his personal experience, but then they would some-
times discredit what he said because he didn’t have any profes-
sional experience.
However, he said he wants to accomplish other per-
sonal goals before becoming certified to be a personal
trainer. He also wants to go back to school to earn
an associate’s degree in nutrition to help him give
advice to others.
So in the mean time, James is working with
one of the personal trainers at Anytime Fitness,
Brett Sipple, to continue learning more.
So instead of going to the gym six days
a week and resting one day, like he
previously was doing, James goes to
the gym three times a week and goes
outside for walks two days a week.

biggest goal is to just hit those every single time and get them
done,” he explained.
“At this point, I’ve lost a lot of my fat. … But it’s more along
the lines of curiosity of what I’ll look like when I’m where I want
to be, because I’ve never not had a stomach, which is a concern-
ing statement. I’ve always been a fat kid,” he said.
Plus, “You can’t cosplay main characters with a gut. It just
does not look right,” he said.
The biggest thing is just
taking the first step, as scary

absolutely is, because you
don’t think you’ll succeed by
taking that first step.
