Sorry it's been a few days since my last update.  Well since then I have had to buy a belt to keep my pants up!!!!   That just makes me feel AWESOME!!!   Also I weighed in last Saturday and lost another 4 pounds for a grand total 16!!!  I've been doing the P90X also to gain some exercise to promote the weight loss.  I feel so proud of myself.   This is all about two things.  1.) loose weight.  2.) Become the man that God has destined me to be!!   So that is the latest update.  CYA

So it's been a few days and I'm feeling pretty good.  It's a good thing I like chicken and salad!!  Especially since that is my main choice of FOOD.  I'm am trying to stick to this.  Yes it's harder at times than others,  i haven't got to the point that I'm circling McD's yet but I'm sure those days are coming.  The hardest thing is gonna be things like bday parties.   I have four in the next month mine included.  So it's just gonna be a lot discipline and focus.  I can't let things get to me I have to remember the reason why I'm doing this!  This is about being obedient and to strive for the things that God has in store for me.  So even though I have sat through my wife and kids eating Chinese and McD's in front of me which really SUCKED but that is just gonna have to be a way of life.  I know where that road leads me and I CANNOT go!!  I have been diagnosed with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) and have been put on medicine to help my heart rate not go crazy plus I am take a water pill to help keep the extra fluid off of me.  So I have a few medical reasons to complete this project!!   So i way in on every Saturday.  Since this is a Thursday you'll just have to wait and see the progression.  

I'm Out!!

Let me introduce "project 120"

The definition of insanity is keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

Ok so the idea of "project 120" has been in the making for about 2 months.  It is simply (I say that now) about me and my monkey on my back.  The idea is this to loose 120 lbs. in 12 months.  Now I know I look at that 120 POUNDS and it seems so unreal and just setting myself up to fail.  However if you do simple math it's only 10 pounds every month.  I have already put into place a "life style" in place that will help.

So what makes this attempt to loose weight different from any other time I've tried and FAILED.  Well this time I have a plan.  I've learned that with NO PLAN or DIRECTION failure is unavoidable. (Proverbs 29:18)  The plan has been developed over the past few years be it from my lovely wife, a personal trainer, pastor friends or simply a mirror.  I'm not looking to recruit any one.  This is simply about about me and my "insane idea".
