So it's my last day in Dallas and I think I was easily out till 2am again last night socializing in the Media Bar at the Hilton Anatole that we are staying at for the OAC Convention. I know I've done a lot of late nights this weekend and I have no doubt my body is going to make me pay for it in the next couple of days. We'll see. But this day was [...]
I could tell you some crazy stories about my third day at the OAC convention, really I could, but if you want the really juicy details you have to come meet me at the next Convention and find out for yourself. I'm just kidding really. But on a serious note, let's talk about what I did on Day Three of the Obesity Action Coalition's First Inaugural Convention. I'm going to admit that I probably didn't [...]

So I am unfortunately one of those people who takes on far much than they can handle on their own, and often times end up with so many things I want to do that there is no possible way to do them all and then I get frustrated that I can’t do it all. Since I have joined, or I guess I should say emerged (I joined over two years ago, I was just sort [...]
My Coffee Cup is almost empty and the two hours that I allow myself in the morning to wake up, browse the internet and figure out what I want to write about for the day is almost over and as usual I've been influenced by a few things. But the pressing thought on my mind this morning is… The changes in my overall health after losing 250 lbs… I spent a lot of time in hospitals in [...]
