I'm Back

Well, I'm back. BCT was all I thought it would be...lots of yelling, lots of shooting things, lots of testosterone, and lots of push-ups.

I have caught up on some of the things that have happened since I have been gone. My daughters have both grown up so much, an aunt of mine has been diagnosed with cancer and already undergone surgery, the dad of a a high school friend of my wife has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, I have 24 truck loads of dirt in my front yard, one of my friends who was let go from his job in May has a new job, another friend found a new job and has left her old job (both of these friends used to work where I do).

I can't even imagine all of the changes that await me at work.

I lost another 20-25 pounds at BCT, and gained a lot of muscle. I am going shopping for new clothes tomorrow, as what was tight when I went to BCT is now about a size too big. I have really thinned out in my face. Total, I have lost about 105-107 pounds since I started losing weight back in January 2005.

My wife has continued to lose weight, and she is over the 115 pounds mark in the same timeframe, although, in fairness, she also was pregnant during that time, so she deserves even more credit.

Anyway, I will blog more when time allows.

Let me know if you (my friends) read this, even if it is just a brief comment.

Aloha.
