Here We Go!

Many things have changed in the last year and a half.  I married and amazing woman, Megan, relocated to Wisner, NE and began a teaching career.  Things have been exciting and God has blessed me in so many ways.  Unfortunately, with the high paced stress of life I have lost the self discipline I used to make a lifestyle chance prior to my wedding.

I lost over 50 lbs of extra and unnecessary football weight leading up to my wedding.  Soon after, I gained it back and have been overcome with laziness and a big lack of self discipline.  Now it is time to wake up and attack my goals with intensity.  No more talking, no more laziness, just an intense focus determined to change my life.

My goal is to lose 25 lbs by Christmas and 50 by March 1st.  Along with that I am making it a goal to run a 5k on St. Patty's day in Wisner.  I have never ran a 5k and this will take a great deal of determination and hard work.  I am going to lean on friends and family and most importantly God to motivate me through the pain and discouraging times.

"Do discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful.  Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it."  Hebrews 12:11
