This is for our children...their children...and their children. This is for our family...this is for us!
Originally, this blog was my wife's, but I stole it since she stopped using it. So, now it will be a place for both of us to write and journal our experiences during this journey of getting healthy. For the both of us its more than just losing weight. Yes, we both want to be thin, but more importantly we want to be around for eachother and our children for a long, long time. We want t show our children that it just isn't okay to treat what He gave us so poorly...
We have stopped making excuses and are ready to face the challenge...are you?

Today was a great day! I woke up and went to the gym. I went on the elliptical for 15 minutes and then biked 6 miles. I burned 330 calories but actually felt like I was sweating! I then took a 1 1/2 walk pushing the double stroller and pulling the dog. I burned 250 calories for a total of 580 calories burned today! I taught my daughter about the importance of breakfast and then had a conversation with her about the importance of protein before working out. The only thing that I could have improved on was my water intake-only 6 glasses but I didn't drink dp. YEA! Good day!
