The Saturday Stray...
Well...here's where I was a week ago. <---Click me.
And here's this morning:
It would seem that good old diet and exercise do actually work. I've done something active each day and cut down big time on calories. (down to around 1600 -2000 each day) I've also stopped eating candy...which is a big deal for me. Cheese has been my snack of choice as of late.
I'm going to keep it up though...there's still about 10lbs to go.
In other events; I created a video promo yesterday for an upcoming Wednesday night experience we'll be doing at a church we rent. It's just a quick teaser to get people interested and asking questions. Check it out:

Public Accountability...
My poor wife. She's had to listen to me whine for at least six months about how fat I feel. I'm not in any kind of awful shape, but I am out of shape. Well...round is a shape I guess.
Anyway - I realize that I am still just a little guy in the scheme of things, but I don't feel good. I've been in much better shape than this and my clothes have fit at one point of my life. I don't want to be in a place where I am feeling uncomfortable. Therefore I am announcing publicly that I'm going to get in better shape.
The above image is from this morning. It shows that I weigh a little over 193lbs. Okay, okay...it shows that I weigh just under 194lbs. This is too much for 5'9'' me. My goal is to get down to 178lbs. I've been at 178lbs within the last couple of years and I felt great.
I've got a YMCA pass and active friends. There is no good reason why I can't achieve this goal. I'm beginning this morning by going rafting with a friend of mine. It should be intense.
So here's to dropping some el bees. Please help me stay on task!
