Frosty The Snowman...

The End IS Near!

As I have continued to lose weight people have commented that I appear to be "melting away." So, I thought it would be appropriate to use the picture above for today's update.

TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS = 100 lbs.

100 lbs. - WOW! Six months ago I would have never imagined it possible...but, then again, all things are possible through Christ (Philippians 4:13). Today's accomplishment will serve as a testimony to Gods power. You see, back in January our church organized a 21-day Daniel fast. Pastor Travis encourage each participant to have a specific need or purpose for our fast and to pray for God to move in that area. My desire was to lose weight. However, my desire has always been one for which I was only willing to talk about as I consumed a full rack of ribs and drank a 2 liter of Coke.

My prayer was answered as God has given me the dedication, drive, and determination to succeed in loosing the weight.
To God be the Glory!

Weight Loss Update...

Just after my Doctor's visit I had a rough week - some call it a plateau. A few busy weekends, birthday parties, eating out vs. at home, lack of time for exercise, etc. all contributed to me gaining 8.5 lbs. back (going from 246.5 up to 255). Life settled down and after a few weeks of regained self-discipline, running, running, and more running, I lost the 8.5 lbs. and kept cruising. This morning I weighed 239.0 lbs. - 4 lbs. to go to my 100 lbs. milestone!

?? BBQ As An Art ??

I saw this video on Pop Pop Culture, one of the blogs I frequently read - thanks Corky for the amusing posts, and wanted to share it with you. The sad part is that as I watched the video I realized that the BBQ sauce used was actual one of my favorites - Sweet Baby Ray's. MMmmm... makes me want some ribs, brisket, and pulled pork. Hmm, I wonder if this is considered edible art?
