Back on Track

Aug 17, 2009

It is time to get back on track to having my surgery.  After a long and emotional talk with my wife and mom I have to get the ball rolling again.  My health is declining and at 31, I should be able to mow my front lawn.  I have slowly gained almost 100 lbs in 5 years.  With a history of heart problems in my family and the troubles my father has had, I have to do something.  Do something for my wife, my family and mostly me.

I came extremely close to getting approved late last year, but was let go and lost insurance.  My wife and I had insurance from her school, but it was not great.  We are back with the BCBS and hope I will be able to be approved again.  Keep your fingers crossed.

One Month Down

May 06, 2007

It is time I get serious about loosing weight.  I have started my insurance company's 6 month diet.  Things were going well at first,  I have lost about 13lbs.   The last few weeks, not so good.  I have a very bad habit of eating late at night before I go to bed.  I get home from work about 11:45 and have to munch.   

I am doing great with working out.  I have been walking about 15 minutes each day.  To push myself, I am riding the stationary bike about 10 minutes.   I am just to heavy to try and jog.   My  knees won't take it.  

Overall I am feeling great.  That is the biggest plus of all.
