Blessings to all of my friends......we are still WINNING this battle. Even when there is setback, don't get stuck and soak in discouragement. Get up, gird up and get back in the race.....the victory is is staying the course!!!!! WE WIN!!!!!!!!!

Life is pretty good. My wife and I just celebrated 17 years of marriage. Yep.....17 years, y'all pray for her, lol. It's so funny that at 10 and 15 years, it sounds cool, but at 17 years it sounds like you are an old married couple, lol. We celebrated by going to Cancun, Mexico. It was a nice trip. It was our second time going. We stayed at an all inclusive resort (Park Royal Cancun).....the place was alright, nothing fancy. Clean and the food was pretty good. Not enough "included" activities there though.  Here's the question......since we don't eat like we used to, does it make sense to do an all inclusive package? One, we don't eat as much as we used to.....two, the temptation to over do it is HUGE since there is food everywhere all of the time. The variety is nice to have though. We don't drink alcohol, so we don't take advantage of that benefit either. So what's the advantage? Anyway.....

                                                                               I WENT SCUBA DIVING

It was cool!!!! Now the last things I need to do are redeem myself in horseback riding and go SKY DIVING!!! That will be the ultimate.
As far as my weight is concerned.....it's a daily battle. While in Cancun, I only went to the gym once (it wasn't included in the package, go figure). And I haven't been to the gym since I've been back, but I am going today and will be sure to go tomorrow. So I don't know what I weigh. I still hope to reach 200lbs lost by my 2 year mark. That means I have to get to 248 by June 28th. Special thanks to my friend, you know who you are, for working with me in trying to reach this goal. Your help has been priceless!!!!!
I guess that is all I have to say for now. Just want everyone to be encouraged..........WE WIN!!!!!
