BIG DAVE'S IN THE HOOD:

Another Thursday has arrived which means another weigh-in. I always have mixed feelings about the weigh-ins. Part of me is excited, hoping that i had a successful week and the other is afraid of being disappointed with a low weight loss or even no weight loss. It has been exactly 45 days since the Sarge and I started this journey, my God 45 days with the Sarge, who would have thought! Anyways...I lost another 5 pounds this week bringing the grand total up to 30 pounds!

I've really started to notice the changes on how my clothes are fitting. In fact I'm on my last belt hole...great!

It was funny driving home from the gym last night with my son. He said you must be feeling better and I said I was. He then said "you know, I thought you would be irritable as sh#t for the next year but you've surprised me"...i really believe that should be on a "Get Well Card", it's a hit.

I read the Sarge's blog yesterday, interesting. I have to make a slight correction, I never said "yo Sarge". I'm not turning "Gangsta" people! I know I walk in with a limp and a shoulder roll but that's only because I'm in pain and if my pants are falling down to my ass it's because I'm losing weight! I come from east Cobourg not east L.A...you know what I'm say'in.

I've made another fashion change at the gym, I know longer wear a baseball cap. Those things just don't look right on my head! I looked in to the mirror and said..."mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the biggest head of all?" The reply was..."the man in the mirror"...strange, it sounded just like Michael Jackson! So no more ball caps, maybe a Bowler, Fedora or even a Tilly. I'm going to make a fashion statement that will go international. Go big or go home.

Remember...A smile is a sign of joy.
A hug is a sign of love.
A laugh is a sign of happiness.
And a friend like me....?
sh#t,
That's just good taste!

See ya homeys!
