Military needs your prayer
News just came out for all Active Duty military. We will only get half a pay check on the 15th. And unless congress makes a decision we will NOT be getting paid on the 1st. Please pray for our troops (myself included), as many of us will be unable to pay our bills and provide for families.

Motivation of the Day
There are no FREE PASSES in life just blessings and well deserved success. Every moment should be determined in THOUGHT first of what WILL be accomplished rather than what can't.

The 200 lbs mark
Why is it that breaking that 200 mark feels so much better than, say, going from 211-210? And 210-209 feels so much better than 209-208? Is it a mind game? Every pound is a pound, but some feel sooo much better.

LOSER! LOSER! LOSER!
All growing up we try avoid being the "loser". No one wants to lose at something. No one wants to be considered a "loser". Why are we okay now with overcoming one of the biggest hurdles we've ever known, only to be constantly be asked how much we "lost". No one asks,"Wow, you look great. Tell me, what have you gained?" No,…
