Up and At It

By Randy McNeely

Another new day and another opportunity to exercise. Same struggles with mind over mattress as usual. However, I have extra incentive now. I did my official weigh in last Saturday for the Weight Loss For Charity Fundraiser I organized. I weighed in, with my clothes on, at 249 pounds. The goal is to lose 40 pounds by June 4th. Great ambitions. Great expectations. Lots of hard work. I can do it, with the Lord's help. I know I can.

I worked my legs and abs today, as well as jogging in between exercises. I exercised for 30 minutes! Yea!

Now, to all of you out there trying and feeling discouraged, I say the immortal words of Winston Churchill; "Never, never, never give up!" To those who fear and doubt, I add the eternal words of the savior, "Be not afraid, only believe."
