Getting My Life Back: May 2013

Getting My Life Back. Monday, May 20, 2013. Who say's you can't go home? We've all heard the expression: "You can't go home." Well, I disagree. I was lucky enough to call two cities in Maryland home. I was born and raised in good old Western Maryland (Hagerstown USA). I love this little-big town with all my heart. No matter where life takes me, Hagerstown will always be my hometown. While growing up, there was one other Maryland landmark that was special to me and that was Ocean City. Then life began to ...

Getting My Life Back. Saturday, February 28, 2015. I Was Down- But Not Out! Where have you been Dan? No blogs in months, it's like you disappeared off the face of the earth. Well there may be some truth in that, and I'm not a guy who likes to make excuses, but sometimes setbacks do crop up. And the end of 2014 was quite a wild ride, a ride that was neither fun nor entertaining. Doesn't seem fare, does it, that I should work so hard for so long and then be rewarded with pain in my body? And if this little...

Getting My Life Back. Monday, October 28, 2013. Challenge Makes Life Interesting. Life's far more interesting when there are a few challenges along the way- don't you think? It seems as if the things we want most in life don't ever come easy. New house, new job, new career, whatever it may be, we have to fight for what we want! Let's face it folks, if weight loss was that easy, America wouldn't be number one in the world for obesity! We all must start somewhere. Why not here- in the now? Unwilling to giv...

Getting My Life Back. Tuesday, May 6, 2014. Weigh In With Dan- Surgery, yes or no? I enjoy sharing the questions I get from various folks, in hopes that by doing so, others may find comfort and support. I realized today that I hadn't blogged a "Weigh in with Dan," segment in some time, so, I thought this bright and sunny day seemed as good as any. Questions are via Facebook. Names have been changed to protect their privacy.*. Tim: Did you ever consider surgery for your weight loss? You must be 100% on bo...

Getting My Life Back. Tuesday, July 23, 2013. Read all about it: The Bellybutton Scare Is Over. Changes and more changes. Since my journey began two years ago, I've shared many wonderful changes with you all- both inside and out. From the expected, like how I feel younger, stronger, and healthier than ever before. To the unexpected, like how. Honestly, there were nights when I fully expecting not to live to see the morning. Now,now, don't go there. That's not what I mean! What am I talking about? Well, j...

Getting My Life Back. Tuesday, August 20, 2013. It's been two years and many months since I first stepped foot in to the fitness center at Hagertstown Community College. HCC, the start of my rebirth, was the place where I finally took control and learned to believe in myself again. What was I getting myself in to? Would there be a load of college students just waiting to laugh at the first 625 man that dared enter those front doors? There's no way you're going to lose weight, you're too far gone. Loo...

Getting My Life Back. Sunday, January 27, 2013. In order to achieve our goals, we must trust that we have the ability and strength to accomplish what we want. Faith is the key. But how does one capture what has eluded us for the better part of lives? All of this was going through my head at the time. To say I was lacking self esteem is putting it. Of course it did! Each successful baby-step allowed my faith to grow- granted slowly. I became a believer in me! My answer: We are much stronger than we realize.

Getting My Life Back. Saturday, September 7, 2013. This morning, as in every morning, I am thankful. I'll say it over and over again, till the day I die, what a lucky man I am. These are not words I toss around lightly. I mean them 110%. When I wake up every day, I thank God for my life. I spend a good portion of my day encouraging others, praying that the masses will wake up and realize how blessed and lucky they truly are. I had something to be thankful for, don't you think? Most certainly we do and we...
