New things and better ideas

Well another week down, and many new things learned. The big things, in those two things you wear on your feet, yes maybe all of you have found this out all ready and that is the cheap shoes and higher end shoes there is a big difference in them, Ali and I went to the Running Corner Sat and had are feet fitted for new shoes they really worked with us one on one, we tried many kind on and did a little running in them, they told us the style of shoe that would work the best, well tonight for my first time I was able to run 4 miles on the tread mill the whole time, and my feet for the first time felt wonderful, it was a little pricey but o what a feeling. Also this week my wife got chewed out by a neighbor that is a distant runner that if he every sees me out going for a run with sweat pants and a hoodie on he will track me down and take them off, so I guess you want as little cloths on as possible, he told Ali if he could he would run naked, well not to worry I will stick with lighter and less cloths when I go running, hope all is well for everyone seya at the gym or class, keep up the good work and Ali you are looking awesome every day.

waiting

Well here I go again, This is such amazing thing that has happened in my life with in the past few weeks, I am seating here at the computer looking at the clock waiting for Ali to get home so I can go to the GYM, I cant believe that feeling, I want to go so bad Cause of how it makes me feel each day with each mile I run or calories I'm able to burn off. Its just amazing how I'm feeling now and watching the change in everyone i see at the gym. This is totally awesome. She is still not home. Ali you looked so good today its amazing the change in you, keep up the hard work your awesome, you will reach your goal

Found something new this week

Well another week down and another blog post, this is actually fun doing this blogging, well down to business it has been a week of ups and downs for me, the week days seem to go good but the weekends are a real killer for me, with food especially, when the youngest wants a big container of those o so little but o so good and o not so good for you JELLY BELLY'S it just seemed like the few I had just seemed to spark a desire for candy and sweets and sweets are not a big desire of mine, but man eat some of those JELLY BELLY'S and the evil BUTTER POPCORN, are so good, so I'm glad the weekend is almost over and the JELLY BELLY'S are almost gone. The other thing I learned this week was how crazy I have been walking away from my trainer and wife as they begin to stretch out after working out, Traci taught me how important it is and how it made the next morning aches not to bad at all, so on the ground I must go after every good hard work out to stretch out the good old muscles. Tell next time it fun reading all the blog posts and the desire it gives me to keep going. But remember JELLY BELLY'S are so good but not so good for us.

New best friend

Well trying to do this blogging stuff regularly. Its been great reading all the different blogs and the support it gives me and the wife. Well my trainer introduced me to the one thing I said I would never do or use and that is those big balls over on the rack in the training room, well Julianne got me on one and i didn't fall off or pop it and i got the best work out on my stomach i have ever had and wouldn't you know it, Ali got one for her birthday on Wednesday and we inflated it today and all ready its been used alot and it really works the back and stomach very well , I would really recommend one for all and the kids even love to play with it. So yes the big ball is my new best friend in the gym to help me lose the stomach that ive been trying to get rid of for quite some time. tell next time

Half the man I used to be...

Sometimes it is hard to know if our hard work is paying off, so I decided to look back at what I used to be, weight wise & share with you what cutting out soda, increasing exercise, portion control & watching what went into my mouth did for me, to help inspire those of you that wonder if it will be worth it...

I am now half the man I used to be.....
