90 Day Fitness Challenge – Day 90

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

Today Heidi and I reached the 90th day in our 90 Day Fitness Challenge done through the Power 90 workout program. I can definitely feel a tremendous difference in my body. I have more energy and feel stronger all around.

Heidi and had decided a few days ago that we would continue the Power 90 workout program for another 3 weeks. This is to cover the two weeks that I was sick and the following third week that we were in Texas visiting her family. All of those three weeks we did eat by the program but didn’t workout. So our decision is to truly put our bodies at where the Power 90 program would have our bodies had we not slipped those three weeks. (more…)

90 Day Fitness Challenge – Day 52

Monday, January 5th, 2009

I am now on day 52 of my 90 Day Fitness Challenge (Power 90 Program – P90), and I have to say that I am feeling great!

I had been really sick for about 2 weeks followed by a Holiday trip for a week visiting Heidi’s family in Texas. So for about 3 weeks, I didn’t work out very much, I think I got in about 4 or five days. I did however follow the meals that we had planned fairly accurately. I think that eating as well as we did considering I didn’t work out as much, helped me keep weight off. (more…)

I am in the beginning of week 4, day 32, in my 90 Day Fitness Challenge.

After having to take the past 7 days off from working out do to sickness, today I am planning to get back at it.

Fortunately, Heidi and I have been very diligent on eating according to the plan. Aside from a couple times of opting to have soup instead of a meal to help feeling better, we stayed right on track. (more…)

Two Wolves

Monday, December 15th, 2008

Heidi sent me this inspirational story today that I would like to share with you.

A Cherokee elder sitting with his grandchildren told them this story. “In everyone’s life, there is a terrible daily fight—a fight between two wolves. One wolf is evil – this one is negativity, fear, anger, envy, greed, arrogance, self-pity, resentment, frustration, boredom and deceit. The other wolf is good – this one is joy, serenity, self-control, humility, goodness, confidence, generosity, truth, kindness, gentleness, love, patience and compassion.” A child asked, “Grandfather, which wolf wins the fight?” The elder looked him in the eye. “The one you feed.”

Thank you Heidi. <3

Gnothi Seauton: ϒνωθι σεαυτον

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

Gnothi Seauton (ϒνωθι σεαυτον) is an Ancient Greek aphorism, or original thought, meaning “know thyself”. The saying “Know thyself” may refer by extension to the ideal of understanding human behavior, morals, and thought, because ultimately to understand oneself is to understand other humans as well.1
