One Day at a Time......

So I, like so many other people, deal with losing weight on a daily basis. I have tried to diet, and I have had a love-hate relationship with the gym. Here is how it usually goes, I realize that I must lose weight and eat better, but I try to jump in head first and make drastic changes immediately and I fail every time. Last summer, I had the most successful run at it before my wedding. I was eating better and I was spending much more time at the gym. However, when my routine changed, I stopped going to the gym and as my stress level went up with school, my good eating went out the window. So, here I am a year later in the same boat. I spent some time recently thinking about what it was that ha been keeping me out of the gym. I think that I was always so focused on the weight being lost that I got frustrated when the pounds didn't come off so quick. What I didn't realize is that I was getting into shape and becoming healthier. So, here is my focus now. I am going to take things slow....one day at a time....I am going to focus on getting back into shape (was I ever really in shape?) and eating right. In time, the weight will come off. I am also going to do this without the aid of supplements (Sorry Curtis). I know that If I focus on becoming healthier and getting into shape I will be more successful.


Stay Tuned........

Here We Go

So, I have people in my life (mainly my wife) that always tell me that I need to write down my observations on life. I always have thoughts and observations about everyday things. I always keep these things in my head until they spew out in front of whoever is within earshot. So, to save these people from random rants about nothing, I am going to spew it here for anybody that is willing to read.

Here are the rules.......

1) I will try my best to avoid politics. Everybody who knows me knows that I am very conservative, but I know that quite a few of my friends don't see eye to eye with me, so I will stay away from that. Let's just leave it as "I'm not going to change your mind, and you're not going to change my mind." We will just leave it at that. Granted, most of my viewpoints come from a conservative point of view, I can't change that, it is just who I am.

2) I will keep it PG. I will do my best to be family friendly. Now, some topics can't be avoided like.....sex. When I post something like this, I will warn you.


So, here we go. Sometimes, I will write down my thoughts on love, life, music, and anything else that is in my head. Sometimes it will be an ongoing series, or it will be just some random thought that comes into my head.....hey, this is the stuff my wife has to deal with everyday.
