My Battle with Weight and Other Life Things

A Son needs a Dad to teach him that family is more important than work.

I think this is true not just for sons, but for daughters too. I know too many people at my job that may thin this, but they sure don’t live it. I will be starting my own business in a few months so I don’t have to work when someone else tells me to or work more than an 8 hour day. The company I work for should not be dictating my outside life and what I can do or not do. I really feel for the people there. Especially those that have never worked anywhere else. They know nothing about a 40 week. There’s plenty more, but this is enough for now.

I started this blog quite a while ago, not really sure when. I don’t use it much now, but starting to. I just read a great blog from Jon Acuff (www.jonacuff.com/blog). It’s about doing what you dream. A few days ago I finished a book called “Poke the Box” by Seth Godin. Another great read. Now I have 2 other books I have to start and finish reading before I start my own business. Not sure if any one reads this, not sure it matters.

I updated the title and a couple other things today. As a Christ follower I have made some decisions and changes in my life. Read Malachi 3:8-10, http://bible.us/Mal3.8.MSG.

8 ”Begin by being honest. Do honest people rob God? But you rob me day after day. “You ask, ‘How have we robbed you?’ “The tithe and the offering-that’s how!’9 And now you’re under a curse-the whole lot of you-because you’re robbing me.10 Bring your full tithe to the Temple treasury so there will be ample provisions in my Temple. Test me in this and see if I don’t open up heaven itself to you and pour out blessings beyond your wildest dreams.

Well, I gained some weight back and have lost that again, back to my below 260 mark. About 80 more to go.

updated my weight loss tracker. Set a goal for the month of July, shooting for 10 more lbs lost.

still losing, but very slowly. gonna try to update more often but with working so much, who knows the next time I get to update.

Not sure if anyone reads this. I’m not happy at my job, I hate working every Saturday, can’t plan anything for the weekends. Going to try to get back into IT so I can have my weekends off all the time. Working 55 hrs a week is getting to me.

well, it’s been a long time since I updated here. I saw my dr in Oct, said I don’t need to come in unless something is wrong. I am no longer diabetic, but still at risk. as long as I keep losing, I will get farther from away from diabetes.

well, it’s been a very long time since I posted here. I got a job and work hard every day. I’m not in the computer industry anymore. I have lost enough weight that I am back to what I was when I got married.

Well it’s been a couple weeks since I posted, guess I should do this more often. I have Gout.  Click here for some good info about it.
