Volunteering and calories - Part 2
Sep 16th, 2009 by livingwater
I did contact a few local volunteer entities who said they wanted help. One on Lamar, another Shawnee, another very close to our home on Sante Fe in Overland Park. 2 of the 3 (66%) I contacted never got back to me which seems surprising considering you would think they would pay attention to inbound “I’m interested in helping” communication. Ah well, another sign of the time no doubt. Then I guess this in itself is a sign from above of where our Lord wants me to work in the next season of so.
This week started last week. Friday afternoon I felt the coming on of the chills and throat/cough thing. By Friday night I knew I was heading south for while but thought I could tough it out over the weekend if I stayed put in bed and rested. By Monday thought feeling no better I went to the doctor who informs me I have a full blown sinus infection. I did have to weigh in so now my official weight is 320 lbs. 3 days later now Wednesday evening the endless nose blowing has died off but the lingering cough is hanging on for dear life, but alas, I think I’m good enough to return to the workplace.
So now knowing the full extent of my weight, and my goal remaining at 200 lbs, money has not yet been a strong enough incentive to get me to start exercise, or eat less, I am open to suggestions from far and wide as to other incentives that might help motivate me to get this weight off once and for all. Perhaps there are other men in my midst whom are up for a similar challenge who no longer want to be carrying an excess person around with themselves.
Perhaps even there is another man or two whom are waiting on the Lord to work to get focused and fast… Only you know… and God of course…
