Dear folks,

2017 is upon us. Hard to imagine it had been so long. The first idea for foamers came about back in 2009. It has been one hell of a journey. Sometimes good sometimes bad.

Two things that happened in 2016 that I would like to remedy is I didn’t write enough and I got fat. I don’t say that for everyone to jump in and say you aren’t fat, you look fine and all that yada yada. I am a firm believer that each of us should feel beautiful in our skin. Size doesn’t matter as long as you feel that way. Unfortunately for me personally I don’t feel good when I am heavier and it affects many areas of my life. I am currently weighing in at 204 pounds. The heaviest of my life. 40 pounds above my BMI and 30 pounds above what I call ideal. My 30th birthday comes this year, and my goal is to get down to 175 by then.

The second thing is the writing. I had a lot happen in 2016 that derailed me, but I am not going to let that happen in 2016. I am finding my groove again and will soon be nearing a rough draft.

So to solve both these problems I give you my 1000 1000 goal. Before I rest my head for sleep I will burn 1000 calories and write 1000 words.

Why am I telling all of you this? Well, I need website content. And I am hoping the more people that know the less likely I am to be derailed. Nothing like some good old fashion shame to keep someone on course.

May your 2017 be awesome.
