My wife and celebrated our first wedding anniversary on 10/2/2012.
I has been a great first year. I wake every day and think about how lucky I am to be in love and to be loved.
She is the greatest thing since sliced bread. She is always thinking and doing things for me and I always try to do the same.
Thank for a great year and many more to come.

Losing Weight
I have been working on getting my weight down and what the doctor says is healthy. This is the fourth week an we are doing ok.
My wife found and app call myfitnesspal. There is an iPhone and Android app both are free and this thing is great.
All you do is register on the site and tell it what you want to do. I told it I want to get to 180 lbs from 210 lbs and I want to lose 2 lbs a week. It tells me how many calories I get for the day and all I do is tell it what I am eating. I also tell it when I go run an I get extra calories to eat that day. It keeps track of proteins, fat, vitamins, and calories.
You can look up the food you eat in their large database or you can use the built in barcode scanner and scan the UPC of the food you are eating. This thing is awesome.
Currently I am down to 203 after 4 weeks.

Back to Running
Life is so friggin busy. We have been skipping our runs just trying to keep up with life. My step-son got through his small surgery and my wife brought him home today. So now that his emergency is over and he is home safe I decided to go for a run today.
It is simply amazing how good I feel even after a bad run. My time was bad and the distance was only 2 miles, but it felt good.
I need to figure out how to always squeeze in time for a run.
Looks like I need to find my blinky light so that I can do some night runs. My day starts at 4:45 as it is so I can get to work by 6:00.
If anyone has some ideas on getting time squeezed into a full day let me know.

Go Getter
I just finished a short book.
The Go-Getter (a Story That Tells You How to Be One)
by Peter B. Kyne
This was a great read and a great story line. The book should be a mandatory read for all kids by the 7th grade. It could lift up hopes and give people a purpose for living a great life.
