Man Kirk, your ward robe must be having a heck of a time keeping up with you.

Thanks Dave,
Yeah…I am very limited what to wear (at least the old stuff). I love walking into Wal-Mart and buying off the rack. That’s the best part of the whole wardrobe deal. Jeans that used to cost me $60 now cost me $10. Thanks for reading…. tell your friends. Kirk

Thanks for taking time with my blog. I really like documenting the things I’m learning. It’s amazing how my life has turned around. I can’t imagine a day going by without some activity planned in it. Pretty soon it will be time to dust off the golf clubs. What’s it been, ten years? Tell your friends about the site…. I love new readers. Thanks again, Kirk

Kirk, nice pic updates. You do look like a new man, that’s awesome. Keep plugg’n at it, seems like the body has to plateau occasionally to figure out what’s going on. But, like you said, I’m sure you’re gaining muscle and that weights more than fat and it burns calories better so that’s great. I’ve got your blog on my blog.

One of my cousins I haven’t seen in a long time left this comment on my Facebook today:

Ginny wrote on your Wall:

“my dad says, “so where’s the other one? there must be two of you now.”"

Thanks Stacy. I’ve learned a lot about myself this past year. The biggest thing is that I can do anything I set my mind to. Losing 168 pounds and working to be more healthy has been very hard, but the payback is worth every effort. I feel better, I like the person who looks back at me in the mirror, and I know that I have improved the quality of my life. Thanks for your encouragement–it means a great deal to me to have friends that care. Kirk
