Total progress. 63 days, 40.2 pounds and counting.
I continue to ask for your support as we start moving to the new year. I am receiving more compliments day by day and I love it. Some people say they don't know if they should give people on a diet complements about how they look because they think it will send the wrong message. I can't speak for anyone else but for me the compliments keep me motivated and show that you notice and that you care enough about me to tell me that I look better than I did 63 days ago. Keep them coming :) Thank you for everyone who reads this. If you have someone who is struggling with weight loss feel free to send them the link to this blog. Ask them to contact me if they want general weight loss information or information on Medifast as well. Much like anything, people enjoy talking to others who are going through the same thing as them.
So what am I going to talk about today? I was looking back on my earlier blogs from last year and I wrote about my bucket list. I decided that today I am going to update my bucket list. As you will notice many of them will be sports related because well I'm obsessed. Some will be big, some will be small, and some may even seem impossible. If anyone can ever help me accomplish any of them I will have a special place in my heart for you. The following list is in no order at all. Number 30 is just as important as number 1. :)
1) Go Skydiving
2) Visit every state in the US
3) Get married (I already have my bride picked out, sorry ladies) :)
4) Get a teaching job
5) Have something I write get published in a newspaper
6) Raising kids the right away. This will be easy as I was raised with two amazing parents as role models
7) Attend a Super Bowl
8) Attend a Duke/North Carolina game at Cameron Indoor Stadium
9) Get my Master's degree
10) Coach my children's sports teams
11) Be able to travel to other countries just for fun
12) Catch a Walleye or some sort of trophy fish. (I have a fear of fish so this one is kinda odd)
13) Be "fit" enough to play with my kids in the yard as they grow up (Well on my way) :)
14) If I have a daughter....walk her down the aisle at her wedding
15) Go the Abbey Road and take a picture like the Beatles did
16) Go to TomorrowLand with Dom, Andrew, Tommy & Sam
17) Buy a brand new car
18) Buy a house for my future family
19) Earn some sort of recognition because of my career
20) Never stop learning (I would be a full time student if that was a career)
21) Write a book
22) Have a living room with 4 TV's so that I never have to miss a moment of the action during Saturday's and Sunday's
23) Attend all the weddings of my brothers
24) Graduate College at SJU (This one should probably have said first)
25) Own season tickets to the Twins or the Vikings for one season
26) Have a Harry Potter marathon and watch all 8 movies back-to-back (any takers?)
27) Leave a $100 tip for someone at a restaurant
28) Hit a Pick4 at Canterbury and have it pay out big
29) Fit into my jeans from high school (Kinda girly but important to me!)
30) When I leave this earth I want people to be proud to know me. My life already has tons of meaning and I want that to continue for the rest of my life. :)
Everyone have a good day :) Next week's blog will be about Christmas!
