As many of you know, I have an ongoing love affair with fitness and health. As such, I am involved with a supportive, motivational group. My group has grown significantly over the months to include approximately sixty people or so. Well, one of the individuals I've encountered previously weighed four hundred and eighty-five pounds. Today, he weighs two hundred and forty-nine pounds. That is a loss of two hundred and thirty-six pounds. That amounts to two people. You cannot imagine how utterly proud I am of this man. His doctor encouraged him to have surgery, but he resolved to lose weight the healthy, ol'-fashioned way. He still has a bit of weight to lose, but he's doing ever so wonderfully. He doesn't even look like the same person. Even his feet are smaller. Where once he had no definition, he now possesses a fair amount of it. His energy has greatly increased. His blood pressure has lowered significantly.
*I have to be off to the post office before it closes, as I have a few care packages to get in the mail for my brother and the boys. On the bright side, I've made a new friend in the post master, as I'm there so very often. :-p I'll finish this later.*
