Ok, 2 weeks ago to day, which was 4-20 I weighed in at 302. this morning in

my birthing day suit I weighed in at 294. this looks like 8 pounds lost in 2

weeks to me if my math is correct. started at 317, so this is a total of 23

pounds since I started losing weight on 3-1-2012. just a tad over 2 months and I

feel very blessed. the journey continues down the trail. next stop on 5-18-2012

Friday morning. that will be the next weigh in date to report. will I lose

another 8 pounds? well four pounds makes me happy and the rest is a true

blessing! Thanks be to the Lord!

Whoo-hoo! Congratulations. I would just like to see mine go below 165 on

Monday. I saw 161 at one time since I have had the scale and that was after

I had the flu.

actually as a kid my dream was to be a truck driver. going across the country

seeing all the different states and no one to bother you while you do it.

couldn't find any one interested in hiring a blind man to drive there big truck,

but at times while on my no where bike, I do pretend I'm a big truck, trucking

down the road, trying to loosen my load, I got seven women on my mind. four they

wont to own me, two wants to know me and one is a friend of mine! what a grate

song that is and I probably got the words all messed up. it is hell to get old,

but it beats being dead!

well now if what you say is true, then I may have a clue as to why our loving

Lord has kept me here with the living after all the heart issues I have had

during the past 5 years. however, my God as my witness, I'm big enough and can't

lie, most of my heart problems were caused from over eating and that is a cold

hard fact of it! I know folks get bad diseases and the such even in grate

health, but the deck is stacked against you when you do silly things like being

selfish and over eating is a selfish act to your self and to those who love you.

eating right and doing some kind of exercise daily, can and does cause many

health problems to never show up in your life. of course accidents do happen and

no matter your state of health at the time, getting shot or ran over by a big

truck can and will make you very dead. we can only control those things that God

gives us to control and expects us to as well. then we leave all the rest for

him to deal with and he expects us to do this also. so as you can see, all we

got to do is do our part as well as we can with out excuses. God knows our

hearts and he knows when it is an excuse or just a flat out lie. your buddies

may believe a lie or your excuses, but God? Well he brought you in to this world

and he can take you out when it pleases him. I got a pretty good idea that God

was very disappointed in the pig and the fact that I had every excuse under the

sun why I couldn't eat right or exercise. on top of all this I blamed it all on

the way I was raised. it is way to easy to blame others when we know deep down

it is only us who is to blame. no one likes to admit they are the problem or the

cause of something bad. I have a good idea that I had got to the end of my rope

with God. I ask him many times in the past to help me drop weight and control my

sugar better, but I never done my part and God wasn't going to do it all by him

self. I had to show him I mint what I was saying and asking for. once I showed

him how bad that A fib scared the poop right out of me back in February and I

was going to do my part, then God stepped up and met me half way with all the

tools I needed to get on the business of controlling my life. fore 2 solid

months now I'm on my way and I'm right on track! I'm focused and my attitude is

right where it has to be to be a success and I give all the credit to my Jesus!

excuses I have no more! no more lies! no more blaming every one but me! no more

losing control of my choices each day that I got to make. I don't skip days of

not finding my no where bike. I ride it every day and for 2 months I haven't

skipped not one day on that bike. I do slip from time to time and eat just a bit

more then I should, but I notice what my mistake was and why my sugar was to

high and I don't continue throwing good sense out the window like I have so many

times before. I never plan to ever visit 300 pounds again in this body of mine.

the wife and I both decided years ago to donate our bodies to science instead of

a costly closing like most have. to me that is a waste of good money. insurance

is for the living and not the dead to be put in the ground and turned in to worm

food. I believe one of the greatest gifts you could ever give to man kind, is

your dead body that you no longer need and nor will your loved one's or friends

either. why put out good money to do such a thing as plant you like a tree or a

animal? I use to wonder what in the world are they going to do with me once they

get this old fat body of mine? well all my blubber may have kept some of them

warm for a while, but now they can't have any wail oil to burn for heat. if the

good Lord leaves me on earth long enough, I plan to get rid of all that blubber

on my no where bike. those guys studying to be a doctor or maybe even a nurse

got to have some dead bodies to practice on and to see how bad choices in eating

will make the body look like. I figure they will cut me all up in little slices

and ship me all over the world or maybe just the country. my hands may go to

Washington. my head with my pig brain may go to Florida. my big fat pig butt may

go to the grate sorry state of Texas. my legs may go to Colorado and New Mexico.

maybe my belly that will of course be much smaller, may stay right her in

Oklahoma. Now I'm pretty certain what is left of my body will go to Arkansas.

the reason I think this is the case is that state just sore of reminds me of the

type to want what is left over. I just can't understand why people will pay

thousands of hard earned dollars on a beautiful funeral or closing as I call it

just to put some one in a cute box and drop it in a hole six feet in the ground?

I know some people cremate there body and nothing wrong with this or the closing

if that is what they wish, but I say donate your body to science and try to do

your part in training some doctors for the future. who knows? it could be your

body that helped them to figure out the cure for cancer or even diabetes! how

can it get any better then this? O well! every one has to decide such a thing on

there own and that is what your family must deal with. I just think it is a huge

emotional drain on your family to mess with a funeral and a big waste. life to

me is a celebration of living a grate blessed life and all that attend this

gathering is there to recall all the good times and how you affected them in a

personal way. you see, if you do it this way as the wife and I both will do and

donate your body to science when you pass, then your family can still have a

gathering and celebrate your life. body donation is totally free for the most

part. some places may charge for your body to be shipped, but most don't. now

just in case any of you are wondering? I don't plan to be kicking off any where

to soon. my plan is to live as many years after as I all ready got behind me. so

looks like 110 is the age when science will get my dead body!

now why do you think 2 wished to stone him? now if they enjoyed getting

stoned with him, then this I can relate to, but wish to throw rocks at him? what

could a man do so bad to a lady that would make her wish to stone him? actually

I believe most men are cute and fuzzy like a teddy bear and females only wish to

hold us and kiss on us all the time. just can't figure why these 2 chicks wanted

to stone this fine fellow! you know? once I read that there is seven times more

females on earth then men, so this was his seven that he was allowed and if only

2 out of seven wished to hit him with rocks? then I say he was doing grate! I

all most had the words right. my wife always says if I don't know the real

words, then I just make up my own. like that song by Queen. wrapped up like a

duce in the night? what in the world is a duce? there is a duce of spades or

hearts in a deck of cards, but why would any one wish to be wrapped up like a

duce. then the song American pie. drove my Chevy to the levy and the levy was

dry, good old boy's drinking whisky and rye, saying this will be the day I will

die. how about the song, sign, sign, every where a sign. looking at my memory,

breaking my mind. don't do this and don't do that, can't you read the sign? the

sign said, long haired hippy's not need apply, so I jumped up on the fence and

ask him why? he said you look like a fine up standing young man, you will do. so

I took off my hat and said, ammagon me working for you? what a grate song.

actually think that was his only hit. grew up listening to the sixty's and

seventy's, after that I'm lost.
