Keep it up Dan. The difficult time of year has passed and now its spring, summer and then skydiving !
Once you get back in the air your motivation will rocket and so will the weight loss.
Blue skies.
I completely agree and thank you! However I got my first shin spints running today so I will have to stick to the eliptical for a bit until they heal up. HELLLOOOOOO ICE.
So yeah... I was sitting at work last night (I work for Comcast Business Class) and who happens to call into my phone? DAVE DEWOLF! I was like a kid talking to their hero! I fell horrible that I couldn't help him out but it was wicked cool chatting with him. I've always wanted to take his rigging course and rigging is what I've wanted to do in the sport besides skydiving of course.
3 days later the cortisone shot I got is turning my life around. My shoulder feels so much better. a few more days and I can start focusing on the gym again.
Finally. I didn't think my shoulder would ever stop hurting and I was going to have to live with this pain day to day.
Just had surgery last Friday! Haven't lost my resolve just trying to recover so that I can get back in the gym! Still under 250 but not at the magic number of 225 yet.

I should be ok in about a week. It was a small procedure.
HOWEVER... I don't want to get into the tunnel until I'm under 240. I have 4 minutes that I got for christmas that I'm holding onto.
I'm using it as a personal goal.
Don't lose too much there are plenty of fast fallers at Pepperell for you to jump with myself included.
hahahahahaha If I wasn't afraid of getting all messed up again than I wouldn't care too much. The new student rigs will be a huge improvement from 2006. Hopefully I can use one of the new ones.
