There must be a million blogs on this site of people claiming they want to lose weight. So thank you for coming to my page. This is more then a "Diet" to me. I've been overweight more then half my life. I wouldn't say I'm obese, but I'm sure other people would. Too bad, I'm losing weight or else I'd use that joke.
I've been doing comedy for almost five years. A good portion of my act is based on being overweight. I get a lot of big laughs from these jokes. I'm willing to trade them back for my health. I'm 255lbs as of today. I would like to be down in the 170-185lbs range by the end of August 2010.
In August, a group of fellow graduates and I are planning a high school reunion. It's unofficial, but I would love to look different. It's about 109 days away, and sort of a motivation for me, but I don't want it to end there.
Technically this is day two of the "life-style modification". I didn't post anything yesterday because I wanted to be sure I would make it through the entire day.
The opportunity presents itself for me to perform at a lot of churches and religious functions, while I'm not always asked to preach, I would love to share this message with you. We weren't designed to be overweight. God loves us, and He wants us to take care of the life He has given us.
Thank you guys for checking out the page, and keep coming back to view my progress. Kudos to a lot of people for encouraging me!!
Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength."
Thanks guys!!
