About Me…

I am a 28 year old devoted husband and father of one. I picked up a jump-rope back in January and as I began to jump I could feel my belly shake like “a bowl full of jelly.” Somehow it didn’t seem as positive as it does in the old Christmas story. It was downright disgusting and sad. That was my life changing moment- I realized right then I had to do something.

    

As a father I also know I have to set a good example. I don’t want to show up on Maury in two years with a 200+ pound child. The best way to ensure your child is healthy is to model healthy behavior. And the old me was not living a healthy lifestyle. Fatty snacks throughout the day, second and third helpings at dinner, the list goes on.

My single biggest motivation was (and is) that face. Okay, well maybe not when it is all scrunched up like that, but still, you get the point. I plan on being around close to a century- so it is time to start living like it!

I realize that for most people losing weight isn’t easy. That’s why few reach their goal weight and even fewer don’t end up right back where they started. However, I am fortunate to have the support of an excellent Friend, Lord, and Savior. He has promised that “I can do all things through [Him] who strengthens me.” Whether it be overcoming sin or passing by an oh so tempting pastry.

This program of total transformation (not just weight loss) is founded in prayer and supported in fellowship with God’s word. May God grant me the strength to live a healthy life and witness. Amen.

Thus far my results have been excellent…
