Today's Number... 63!!!!!

Yup, got on the scale again this morning to yet another smaller number on the display! In the last three months I've watched 63 pounds melt away! I've lost inches and inches to the point that if I don't find me a belt soon, I'll be in BIG trouble!



If you're at the point that you're really ready to be serious about losing the weight and living a healthy lifestyle, I hope you'll call my health coaches, Lisa and Jaime, today at 503-590-1111. And you can feel free to call me if you have questions about how I've felt through this or how I've handled cravings or whatever! My direct line is 503-652-8104. I'd love to talk to you.



More to come... or in this case... GO! LOL

Clothes are GONE!

Last night when I got home, I loaded all my old clothes into my car so I wouldn't forget this morning. On my way to work I stopped in to see all my friends at City Team Ministries and dropped all my old clothes that don't fit me anymore so someone else can get some use out of them. I have no plans to need them ever again!
But before I left for work, I got on the scale (like I do every morning) and saw I'd lost another 2 pounds!!! That brings my total to 62 pounds that I've lost!
To you those of you who wanted to wait and see if this thing I'm doing would work... well, what do you think NOW? I've still got a ways to go so stay tuned for more updates. What's my goal? Well, I really want to see some 32" pants hanging in my closet this year! I figure if I lose another 80 or so pounds, that should put me there. At the rate I'm going, I may very well BE there shortly after the kids head back to school!
I'd love to have you join me on this journey if you're ready! Click on the 4Generations4Health.com logo at the top of the page, or just call my health coaches at 503-590-1111. As always, if you want to talk directly to me about my experience, call me directly at 503-652-8104.
Here's to your health!

What you do after losing 60...

So now that I've lost the first 60 pounds what do I do? Have a bowl of ice cream? NO WAY! GO THROUGH THE CLOSET! After work last night I came home and started to go through my shirts and I found a few shirts that I completely missed out on wearing! They're already TOO BIG! So I pulled out all the old stuff and made a pile that I'm going to give to City Team Ministries this week so someone else can get some use out of them. But here was the OTHER exciting thing... except for about 2 shirts, EVERYTHING in my closet fits me now! I've got a whole new wardrobe! My wife Shauna said with excitement, "Now I can go clothes shopping for you again and know that it will fit!" Go ahead honey, shop!
You know, what is exciting to me... beyond having clothes fit, is that I'm changing my habits. I know that with the help of my health coaches, I can choose to live a healthy lifestyle for the rest of my life. I have three high school graduation ceremonies I need to be here for, three weddings I need to be here for, grandchildren I need to be here for, and a wife to grow OLD with... I've got to be healthy to help make that happen.
How about YOU? Have 10 pounds that you keep battling? Two HUNDRED and 10 pounds that you think you'll never lose? You can do it with this program. You really CAN! Call my health coaches, Lisa and Jaime at 503-590-1111 and start down that road to healthy living TODAY! There's no better time to start than now... trust me! I started on this journey as I started a 2-week vacation in March and STAYED ON IT! Join me on this journey and we can encourage each other!
If you have questions for me, feel free to call or email me! My direct line is 503-652-8104 and my email is dave@1041thefish.com

TAH-DAH! 60 POUNDS!

YEA!!! I finally hit the 60 pound mark! So how do I feel? Um, in a word... AWESOME! The question I get asked the most is if I have more energy and you bet I do. Just yesterday after church I decided to go for a bike ride, but I wasn't expecting to go and ride a full 12 miles! I felt great all the way through... this is from a guy who would feel winded running up the stairs the 3rd floor here at work before!
Okay, another big question is this... Am I hungry all the time? Nope... this great plan that Lisa and Jaime have me on keeps me eating something every 3 hours or so. Do I have the desire to eat a big slice of pizza... of course! I love that stuff, but that's the stuff that got me where I was 3 months ago, and I don't want to go there. So Lisa and Jaime have helped me to learn how to combat the psycological triggers we all have and I'm able to walk away.
So if you're ready to join me, don't put it off! Feel free to call me OR my health coaches. We can tell you more about this all new lease on life I'm enjoying. Just last night, my wife Shauna said, "It's gunna be nice to have you around longer." But I'm not just going to live longer as I get healthy, but I'm going to have a higher QUALITY of life.... and don't we all want that? C'mon, lets go! Join me in this journey. It's so exciting!

ALMOST TO 60!

Hey look who stopped by the office today! PHIL STACEY! One of the stars from American Idol! I gotta say he's one of the nicest down to earth guys I've met.
One of the guys from record company came along with him... he and I hadn't seen each other for some time so he was suprised to see my weight loss. That's the FUN PART of this part of my weight loss journey, getting to see people I haven't seen for awhile and seeing their reactions! I love it when they ask how I've done so well in such a short amount of time. I get to brag about my health coaches, Lisa and Jaime and 4Generations4Health! They're THE BEST!
