New blog for new goals!

12 days ago I became the happiest man on earth. I got to marry my amazing girlfriend of 3.5 years. This girl has helped to define the man I am today. She has showed me how to be a good person as well as how to be a great man. We had a beautiful ceremony here in Fayetteville; I couldn't have made her more gorgeous than she was when she walked down the aisle. I am incredibly blessed with her.

Since we got back from our honeymoon in Chicago we decided to start a weight loss program together so that we could be healthier for each other. We set goals and a reward if we make it. I'll leave it to her () to tell you about hers. For me however, I want to get down to 230lbs. That leaves only 70'ish (on the high side) to go!

In an effort to be more accountable to ourselves, I suggested that we create separate blogs to update on a fairly regular basis about our progress, trials, and victories. The "program" will commence on January 1, 2011. This blog is not just about weight loss, but also for daily thoughts and comments.

As of now this is only for her and I to look back on, but might eventually be turned loose on the rest of the web tubes. If it is, then God bless those who read these random blurbs from the mind of a new husband, current fat kid, and worst of all: a spent engineering grad student.
