2XYS’s BodyBlog

I was fooling around with my wife last night. I was getting something out of my son’s room, and I decided to try on a pair of his jeans (size 36) that he does not wear anymore.  My son wears a size 28, but he went through this phase where he wore clothes that hung off of him; those days are over. I could wear them, my wife’s comment was "Ok, that greats!  Now, take them off. Those are for young people." My comments were, "Appreciate, don’t hate." I was just kidding with her, but it felt great.

Today was WI gained 1 lb.  I found that hard to believe with the morning workouts and tae kwon do in the evening.  I am staying on track with my caloric intake.  I pretty much stick to a certain eating routine, with a little variation every once in a while.  I was told maybe I am not eating enough.  This week, I will continue to monitor my workout and eating habits to see where improvements can be made, especially the upper torso.  One thing that made we feel good is people are telling me that they can see the weight loss.  The TKD workout last night was brutal; I am exhausted.  TKD Promotion Test this afternoon.  Hopefully, I will make through the afternoon.

Most of us will have the day off from work, tomorrow.  If you have an opportunity, please take a minute of your day to give honor to the men and women who serve and protect this great country.  They are away from their families without the comfort and convenience of amenities that we take for granted.  Please stop for a moment and say a prayer for our troops around the world.

‘Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.  Amen.’
To the military service men and women, THANKS!

And to all, have a great Labor Day!
