This Must Change (UGH…)

// October 26th, 2009 // Family Life, Spiritual

A hard post to share…

I joined my friend, Jason Salamun, in the This Must Change endeavor (detailed here) just over a month ago.  I thought I did well the first two weeks, losing six pounds during that time and raising the support of several friends to help in the effort.

Then, in week #3 and #4 I didn’t lose any weight at all. I was crushed.  UGH!

After that, I started traveling, as I tend to do a lot in the fall for conferences, training events, and district gatherings.  Long and short… I’m using it as my lame excuse to bow out of this early.  I’m going to be traveling every other week up through the time this challenge was supposed to end for me.  I’m regretfully throwing in the towel for now and am going to pass on my support for Jason and his endeavors through the end.

If you haven’t yet, please go visit ThisMustChange.org and sign on to support Jason and the 6 great causes that benefit from this effort.  He’s lost an AMAZING 24 pounds so far!!!

To those of you that were in it and supporting me thus far, THANK YOU!  You have been such an encouragement to me.
