25 and counting

Well, I have hit the 25 pound mark in weight lost, and I feel good.
I am seeing improvement in my stamina, my strength, and recovery.  I can actually run 2 miles or so without stopping!

My clothes fit better…well, for the most part. I have to take my dress pants in to get them altered, and my [...]

My Jonathan

Yesterday I sat at Starbucks for about two hours catching up with my friend Matt Mehaffey.  He was in town and we were able to get together to catch up on each other’s lives. 

As we sat there and talked, my mind drifted back to the time we drove down to Florida for the High School [...]

Losing Weight Costs Money

I am down 13lbs since I started my workout, and I feel good.  I'm still sore, and I'm still a ways away from where I want to be, but I'm on my way.  My clothes are fitting better, and I am doing better at eating healthy – although I am craving little chocolate donuts.  I [...]

Dinner with the Simpsons

We went to Buffalo Wild Wings tonight with Brooke and Darrin to watch the Hawkeyes take on the Cyclowns in basketball. I love spending time with them cause they are such a great couple. We really enjoy their company and look forward to more times like this.

Children of God

Last night the we met up with the Barkers, Simpsons, Jordan and Bethany for dinner. We played some trivia – I won by the slimmest of margins against Jake – and had a great time. We went out afterwards but Nicole had to go home to rest since she is working this weekend. [...]
