I can't believe how much snot the human body can produce in a given day. I dropped 2 pounds in one day. No throwing up, just the common cold. Not eating much since everything I put in my mouth has no taste and when it's in my mouth it's nearly impossible to breathe. But now I'm almost at 30 pounds lost since mid January. I'll take it. Just not as the primary reason for my weight loss.
Ah, the NCAA tourney. I love this time of year. I'm in 4 bracket pools and getting killed in 3 of them. I guess that's what happens when you go with your gut. The only one I'm doing any good in is the one against my wife. But that just means I get to pick the restaurant for our next date night. I'll take that. Texas Roadhouse here we come. I can already taste the rolls with honey butter...I think I just put those 2 pounds back on. Well in honor of my wife I must say, GO JAYHAWKS!
Got to leave in a few hours for Waterloo ...

1. I'm tired. I've been getting up at 5:30 am to workout and then get to church by 7:30 so I have 30 minutes alone with God. The 30 minutes is great to start the morning off but the 5:30 gets old quick. It's hard to go to bed early since I like staying up late but at this point even on the 3 days that I don't have to get up my body wakes up at 5:30. I keep going. 23 pounds since January 12 and counting (down, not up).
2. Leading can be hard sometimes. Just this week I was thinking about how many things that I lead and wondering if that is a good trait of leadership or not. I've got to rethink that and put some more time into seeing if that's really what I should be spending my time with. But at the same time, I'm excited for the new leadership endeavor I have for the next 8 weeks.
3. This is the best time of year to be a college basketball fan. I love it and I have to admit--Go Drake! I'm on the bandwagon. ...
