Triple Ds

I know what you're thinking...

He's going to start talking about boobs.  Well I could but I won't.  And I'm not talking about Diners Drive Ins and Dives.

I'm talking about triple digits.

I have officially broken the 100 lbs mark as of this weekend.  I am also nearly exactly the weight on my driver's license.  That weight was given in 1996...and I was fibbing then...

I'm wearing 1XL clothes for the first time since grade school.  You read that right.  Grade School!

I have 3 shirts left that are 3XL.  1 is a Colts jersey that I paid a shit ton of money for and refuse to donate.  I'll probably get it framed or something.

The other 2 I'll just probably pitch since they are beat up.

I bought my first pair of size 44 pants since grade school the other day at Meijer.  I paid 15 bucks for them give or take a buck due to taxation without representation.  They are still pretty tight but I can get into them.  Considering I was wearing 58s 4 months ago I'm pretty effin' happy.  The 46s that I bought a month ago are just too big.

This has been a crazy journey so far.  It has been good and hard but never bad.

If I'm honest I'm still not exercising much and the supplements are still tough.  I'm digging the MiO sweet tea and peach tea flavors.  They don't contain any caffeine and taste really good.  This helps with my water intake throughout the day.

I feel great.  I'm more active.  I'm less irritable...check your local listings on that one...

Overall the outpouring of support I have gotten is something that I've needed and I appreciate it more than I can ever explain.

Thank you to all who have given kind words and thoughts.  They have kept me going when things got tough. Without my wife I would never have been able to even think about this.  I love her and am thankful every day for her being in my life.
