Long time no see
Thursday, January 15th, 2009Well, oh well, oh well…
Where do I start after seven months of not posting. I guess I’ll just pick up from today and not have much to say about all the missed time.
Today’s a big day for me. For those of you that haven’t seen me in the last few months you wouldn’t know that I’ve been on a weight loss quest. For the last three years I’ve weighed about 240 lbs. Yuck! At the beginning of 2008 I made the goal to lose 40 lbs by the first of this yr. Actually the goal was to also weigh 200. Little did I know the extra two lbs would be a sticking point. By new years I had lost the 40 lbs but I was at 202-203. This morning was the first time I broke the 200 mark. I came in at 199.0. I have to tell you I feel like I’m on cloud 9. Happy Dance!!! As the old saying goes, “I ain’t ever going back again!” Well, maybe that’s not an old saying but it’s a saying and at certain points in my life I’ve found it liberating.
Then, this evening I went out with my friend Rose to celebrate. We did a lot of catching up with each other and closed the restaurant down. It was a great visit and long over due.
Ok, I know I’ve said this before but I think I’ll actually keep the blog updated now. So, we’ll see. Check back soon to see for yourself. Also, if you’re on Facebook.com look me up. Search for Keith Brookshire and send me an invite. Myspace.com is another matter. I’ve been on there for over a year but I’m not so much into that. It’s mostly just personal stuff and personal friends. So if you’re on myspace look me up @ mysapce.com/f8man.
Until next time…
Keith
