It all started at church. We made a worship band. I actually joined my friend\u2019s worship band and it just started growing from there.<\/p>\n<p>Next thing you know we were travelling to places like Mexico, Peru, Venezuela, and Canada.<\/p>\n<p>I was living the dream that I had always wanted. The travelling is beautiful, you get to share good times with friends, and you get to try some amazing food.<\/p>\n<p>The bad thing is that I couldn&#8217;t find the time to work off all that great food.<\/p>\n<p>So I slowly started to gain weight.<\/p>\n<p>At first it was fine, I would take pictures, or we would do a DVD and I would look ok.<\/p>\n<p>But that started to change&#8230; after 20 pounds&#8230; after 30 pounds&#8230; next thing you know I was 55 pounds heavier.<\/p>\n<h2>I started hiding from the camera<\/h2>\n<p>By that time, I was using old promotional material&#8211; I did not want to take pictures!<\/p>\n<p>I didn\u2019t promote my concerts online. After my concerts, I would go on YouTube and I take out all of my concert footage&#8211; even footage other people put up.<\/p>\n<p>I was just so disappointed in myself after being this sports guy all my life. The person in the mirror was unrecognizable.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 658px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-version=\"7\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 50.0% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"margin: 8px 0 0 0; padding: 0 4px;\"><a style=\"color: #000; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BEckZtYw2Lw\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Otra de ayer<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\">A post shared by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BEckZtYw2Lw\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HugoYin<\/a> on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2016-04-21T02:58:38+00:00\">Apr 20, 2016 at 7:58pm PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async=\"\" defer=\"\" src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>My weight started to affect everything.

Why? Because it was just food. I didn\u2019t have to do all the exercise that I thought I needed to do and I didn\u2019t have to take any supplements.<\/p>\n<p>I received the box, I saw the portions and the type of food I had to eat and it looked like normal food.<\/p>\n<p>So I said \u201cOK, let me just give it a shot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly, it\u2019s not like a diet, it\u2019s not diet food. It\u2019s just food! I was eating chicken, I was eating beef. The food is so good; I didn&#8217;t feel like I had to make sacrifices.<\/p>\n<p>I thought I was going to have to struggle with it.
