FAT MAN, THIN MAN, FATTER MAN...GOOD GRIEF!! I have been "overweight" or whatever other descriptive you care to use to call me fat, most all of my life with occasional spurts of weight loss. I've been up and down the scale several times, (mostly up) and have gained and lost over 300+ pounds in my life. However, I've begun to see myself as more than just a "fat" person...it gets easier to take on a different outlook when one doesn't fight for every breath, or have joints scream in pain every time you move.

A MILESTONE

Last night I broke the hundred pound weight loss barrier!



Though I am not done yet by any means....this is a milestone!

I WISH TO THANK THE MANY OF YOU WHO HAVE ENCOURAGED ME ALONG THE WAY...



Especially my wife Nancy and my daughters Laura & Emily, my sister Julie, Megan, Heather and Jennifer at Mercy Weight Loss, and of course Dr. Steve Gordon who gave me the right push (several times!!) to get me started!


God has blessed me with each one of you in my life!


Thank you for rejoicing with me!
