Day 11 - Completed Assignment 1 and working on Assignment 2

Going great!  On "off" workout days I actually miss working out.  On those days I feel like I am missing my workouts and I don't feel as good.  That must be good news.  Now remember 11 days does not make me a "work out forever" kind of guy, I have been working...

Loved what you wrote in a thread in the community. I can't agree with you more than doing what you can to be healthy to motivate and set a good example for those you love, your friends and family. Hope your son has a great football season. Enjoy watching his games. Katie

I Am

I am a family man. I love my wife and children and really try to do everything I can to support them in their pursuits. I have been overweight for many years and am tired of being tired, so I have decided to make the changes necessary to get healthy and lead a life pleasing to God. I am enjoying getting back into the workouts with my family. We are all on a transformation track to health.

My Favorite Charity

Victorious Christian Living International

To me, Transformation Means

My transformation start date is 29-Jun-2009. Transformation means that on 29-Jun-2010 which is one year from now, I will be off my blood preasure medician, I will be healthy and chasing my wife and kids around life like any normal husband and dad. On this date one year from now, I will not be tired, I will not be out of shape, and I will not be on deaths doorstep sitting at a Cardiologist Office. I will have handed all my problems to the Lord and he will be guiding my life to his purpose.

At my largest (340 lbs - See my pictures), I believed that I could die before my kids all graduated from high school. I found myself in a waiting room at a Cardiologists office with people who were my father and Grandfathers age.

What Trasformation means to me, Is a new me. A person who is not on deaths doorstep, who enjoys getting up in the morning, who enjoys a new life without the need for bloodpreasure medician and pain caused by standing up. Transformation is getting from Today to 29-Jun-2010.

My Goals

1) I weight: 220 lbs down from 340 or 120 lbs weight loss by 29-Jun-2010
2) I am off my blood pressure medication by 29-Jun-2010
3) I am stronger, and can run faster than I was in High School - by 29-Jun-2010
4) I am eating, on a daily healty well balanced meals and this is a habit in my life. This will be done starting 29-Jun-2009 and by 29-Jun-2010 it will be my established eating habit.

My Intentions

I was at my biggest, and the pictures on my main page are actually from the begining of the year. At that time, I did not sign up for the transformation, but my wife did. To support her, I partially followed her plan. I joined a health club and started workouts. I worked out with my son and started eating more healthy. Things were going great for about 4 months and I started to change my life. I dropped weight from 340 to about 294. Great you say. Yes for this time period it is great, but I have done this before and each time I stalled and eventially went back to my old habits and gained that weight back plus some added weight. See, the first 50 pounds for me is easy. I need to change my life habits & my life style. During the months of May and June, I worked out, but did not loose any weight. I found my self eating poorly again. To help make my goals I decided to join the trasformation. I need to change my life and my habits for ever. So at 294 lbs, I am setting off to transition to the new me.

Who I'd Like to Inspire

My daughters Kalona, and Kalina. My son Graham, and my wife Laura
