Here I go again.  You are probably thinking, oh no that fat man is going to try a diet and fail!  Well, you may be right, but I am going to try and try and try until I succeed.

I am now the proud father of a 3 month old baby boy, Hudson.  He brings so much joy to my life and I look forward to watching him grow and develop into a strong man of God over the years.  I cannot do this if my lifestyle does not change immediately!  I will be dead at 45, leaving my family alone and sad. God may take me before then, but I am going to use my time on Earth to get healthy and STAY healthy.

Diets never work.  They are a quick fix.  Will I be able to live like I am today forever, no.  But, if I lose the weight I can find a program for me to maintain a healthy lifestyle without totally changing my eating habits.

I started my new change on May 5, 2014.  My goal is to lose 100lbs in 1 year.  This may be a lofty goal, but I am committed to it.  That is just my first goal, 130 will be the ultimate goal by the Fall of 2015.  This would put me at 235lbs.  That would be my lightest weight since high school.

All the glory to God, He will give me strength.

"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." ~Phillipians 4:13
