Long week; had many late night work obligations early in the week as well. Kicked up the cardio later in the week. Put in nearly 18 miles of walking. Erased 12 pounds of old Jon & let me hit my next milestone goal; to break into the 390's. So I need an intense week to insure I do not slip or stall on this climb.
The message earlier in the week was about you being in control of you & your destiny. I don't want to confuse the climbers out there, I was not saying you are alone.
I want all of us to understand, each of us is an army of one. However, we are linked here, by this chain, on this mountain, fighting this fight. I am linked to you & you are linked to me. All of us comprise we. We are a legion of armies.
We are united to help all the individual "you's" up this mountain. We are here to strengthen each other & hone our skills as we navigate this journey. We are here to insure each of us remains resolute. Each of us remains tenacious. Each of us remains focused & fierce.
Each of us will fall. We are here to pick all the "you's" up when that happens. We are one. When "you" goes; "we" go. We are responsible for the choices made by the man / woman in the mirror, but there is a band of climbers of mountains here to help that person make better choices.
So let's get to doing what we do gang. Let's set forth on anther day of fulfilling our destinies. Let's be tenacious in our climb this day, this week. Let's let the inspiration of this legion loose on this mountain side & get these armies motivated to climb. We few. We very few climbers of mountains are building the destiny we want to be a part of. You may be alone in body, but that is not the case in spirit; the spirit of this legion is forever at your ready. I can see you in my mind's eye brothers & sisters. Let's keep our eyes trained on the peak & get to climbing!!!
UPDATE ALERT:
Well, just got in from the doctor for my regular Monday weigh in's with some good news / bad news.
The BAD News: The scale I use at work to weigh on Monday mornings was evidently not calibrated correctly this morning. So, my 4 pound weight loss was not 4 pounds.
The GOOD News: I weighed in at the doctor's office on two separate scales; because I wanted them to verify their number, at 393 pounds. So instead of my very happy 4 pound loss; my 18 miles worth of walking, actually delivered a freaking deliriously ecstatic 12 pound loss. Plus I hit a milestone & dropped under 400 pounds.
I was so overwhelmed I was speechless after the second weigh in. I even teared up a little.
I want to thank all of you out there for your support. I know without it, I would not be enjoying the success I have had. I could never thank all of you enough.

Losing 5.4 kg a Week
26 April 2015
As I check in this morning, I have read a lot of disappointment & seen a some red arrows as I browse the journal entries. But on the flip side, I have seen some green out there on the mountain side as well. So I know success is in our midst. So, as we gather ourselves up this morning, remember this truth. What's done, is done. What lies ahead is destiny. There is only one who controls this thing we call destiny. You are intimately familiar with this controller of destiny, because you look upon their reflection every time you look into a mirror. Yes, it is you. This journey, this transformation, this destiny starts with you. You are the force that makes it happen. You are the gravity, that dictates how your life revolves around you. You are the light that drives away the darkness. You are the Excalibur that slays the dragons. You are the climbers upon this mountain. Now, grab your destiny by the throat & let's get to dragging his or her ass to the peak. You can do this. I can do this. We can do this gang!!! We are the creators of destinies. We are a legion of peak seekers. We make destinies happen. We do not allow happenstance to happen to us. We choose to fight this fight. We choose to fight it daily. Now let's go, your destiny has already packed its' gear. Let's take this smattering of green arrows & infect the all of us; & turn this whole mountain side green. Success is our destiny!!!

Good morning out there you birthers of dreams & conquerors of fears. I hope this day finds you continuing to fight the good fight as we ascend the mountain this Fine Friday. Be focused & fierce this Friday, to not allow all the hard work you have put in this week be derailed by weekend activities or events. Stay tenacious my friends. Be determined to keep building a better you, every day. Set the tone for your climb to be the path a person in your life wants to follow. This peak we seek is not for the weak of spirit. We must strong for ourselves & to aid those who do slip on loose soil from time to time. If we do this, they will be there for us when our footing is not so secure as well. So let's get out there on the side of this mountain this fine morning & do what we do. Let's be a beacon of motivation. Let's be the positivity we want to see in others. Let's be driven to be peak seekers & deliver ourselves from the burdens we are now casting off down this mountain side. Let's breathe in this mountain air & exhale inspiration all up & down the sides of the cliffs. To the top gang!!! To the top!!!

Good morning out there you brilliant spots of light penetrating both the mental & physical darkness of this journey. I see you spread out across the mountain this day before the sun takes it's first glance at us this morning. Your brightness paints a tapestry of constellations across this mountain side; a symbol of strength & fortitude for the multitude to draw from. Have faith in your journey, that you are not only building a better you, but you are also the force propelling another to take action in their life & change it for the better. You are a link in the chain of a greater good. A chain forged by a common fight & a unified commitment to ascend this mountain. Now let's get to doing what we do; while not forgetting to reach out & help those who may be standing on weak knees this fine morning. For if we help heal those wounds & return their strength; they will be the force we may need one morning to heal our wounds & be our strength as we continue this beautifully unveiling journey up this mountain. To the top gang!!! We are a legion of peak seekers!!!
