Guy: So what’s the plan if you hit your target #weight? WHEN I hit my target weight, #ProjectDeku, inspired by #IzukuMidoriya, ends. That, my friend, is when #ProjectMillion, inspired by my favorite character, #MirioTogata, begins. (Current weight: Still 265 lbs) #weightlossjourney #weightloss #myheroacademia #bokunoheroacademia #gym #unicorn https://www.instagram.com/p/CIUJEHljGAU/?igshid=1dlrasu7cap9s

HOLY F**K. So I’ve been on @nutrisystem/#nutrisystem for one month today, the only real exercise I’ve had is work, my bike on my days off, and Boe basically every night. I was 285 lbs when I started. Yet I feel no different from when I started. My goal is 220. #weight #weightloss #ProjectDeku #myheroacademia #bokunoheroacademia https://www.instagram.com/p/CD-YTHXjNUi/?igshid=q8zrhqk1jzt0

So I got asked why I named my #fitness journey #ProjectDeku. Short answer? Because Project Midoriya wouldn’t fit as an Instagram Highlight name. Long version? Get a drink you’re gonna be here a while. There’s this fairly new #anime series that, as far as I’m concerned, puts #Dragonball to shame with how good it is. This anime is called, in English, #MyHeroAcademia and it follows the life of 15 year old #IzukuMidoriya. In #MHA 80% of Earth’s population has a superpower, called a quirk. You have the normal ones like speed, strength, etc. but there’s also a boy who can shoot scotch tape from his elbows, a girl who can make anything using her body’s lipids, a man who can manipulate people’s clothing (get your mind out of the gutter) and so on. Midoriya has no quirk and wants to be just like the greatest superhero ever, #AllMight, basically Japanese #Superman but All Might has a time limit to his powers. Midoriya is going about his day to day life when a sludge monster attacks his friend turned bully #KatsukiBakugo, who can use his sweat to make explosions with his hands. Licensed heroes can’t stop the sludge monster, All Might is past his time limit. Scared out of his mind, Midoriya rushes the monster, throwing his school books at it and scratching at it with his hands. This inspires All Might to say “Screw my time limit,” and jumps in. Later, as Midoriya is walking home, All Might stops him. “You showed true bravery, Midoriya, I’d like to pass my quirk onto you. But you need to train your body for it to accept my quirk.” All Might says. So over the course of 10 months, Midoriya goes from this scrawny skin and bones kid to a toned and cut man. As he gets accepted into #uahigh, a high school for #superheroes, Midoriya explains to #TenyaIida and #OchakoUraraka that Deku is what #Bakugo calls him to make fun of him because of the kanji in his name. 緑みどり谷や出いず久く The last bit reading as #Deku. On Uraraka’s advice, Midoriya uses Deku as his superhero name to give the insult a new meaning of hope. THAT is how Project Deku was born. I see A LOT of myself in Midoriya and he’s my #bodygoal. #gym If you’re still here, comment #GoBeyond #PlusUltra https://www.instagram.com/p/BriqbiOAFWw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gupot4u22wf6
