Where I’m Starting From

September 8, 2026

I’m Mark. Right now, I weigh 435 pounds, and last month I was behind on my bills. I’m not saying that for sympathy — I’m saying it because it’s true, and because this whole site only means something if I’m honest about the starting point.

I drive for Lyft, and for a long time I let a lot of things slide: my health, my finances, the habits that actually build a life instead of just getting through one. This is me fixing that, in real time, out in the open.

What This Site Is About

I built a framework called the 1-2-3 System — a simple, phased approach to rebuilding health and wealth, one habit at a time instead of trying to overhaul everything at once. Phase 1 is about clearing out what’s holding you back. Phase 2 is about leveling up once the basics are automatic. Phase 3 is about maintaining it — and helping the next person do the same thing.

You’ll find the tools I actually use to track it, and the whole process documented on my YouTube channel.

If you’re starting from your own version of “behind,” this is proof it’s possible to turn it around — and a system to actually do it with.
