Today we celebrated the 50th Wedding Anniversary Grandma and Grandpa Windy. Jackie and I traveled out to Reese for the church ceremony then headed up to KingFish up on the water in Bay City where we had dinner and a few drinks. It was nice to see the family and celebrate the occasion with everyone.

I am the Biggest Loser
Apr 9
Not something you would normally want to say about yourself, but this time it is a good thing. Today we had our final weigh in at work for our biggest loser competition. My starting weight was 186 and my finishing weight was 171 for a total of 15lbs weight loss which is about 8.1% bodyweight lost. Not too bad for 1 month. All in all I am really happy. I went and found some old pictures that Jackie and I took when we first got our gym membership. I didn’t really think I was in as bad of shape as I looked. But compared to now, I can’t beleive I ever looked the way I did. I am actually pretty embarassed about these pictures but whatever, I put up embarassing photos of everyone else. So brace yourself. What you might see is disturbing. The first ones are from June of 2006 when I was 188 pounds. When I started the competion I weighed just just about the same so this is a pretty fair contrast.
And these are from today
Not bad..all it took was a lot of working out and some strict dieting. I am really happy about what I have accomplished and I am not done yet. I am after those 6pack abs which have eluded me since high school. I am gonna get them back.
Roller Disco
Apr 6
Yesterday our friend Laura had her 27th Birthday party and she did it up Roller Disco style. Jackie and I searched all week for vintage clothing. Jackie went straight up roller disco and I took the more general 70s style. We actually wore roller skates too. It was a lot of fun. Happy Birthday Laura. Welcome to the 27 club.
