What If I...Lived?: Scott's Story
http://what-if-i-lived.blogspot.com/p/scotts-story.html
What if, instead of mere day to day existence, what if I.lived? A Turkey Trot 5K -. And huffing and puffing! Truth is, I spent the first half of my 40's waiting, no expecting to die. No doubt it would be sudden - a heart attack or stroke - but certainly before my 50th birthday. That's how unhealthy I believed I was! In short, waiting to die has become an unacceptable way to live. After my first race - 7K! And it really started with a simple decision, inspired by Ben Davis of Ben Does Life. I ran the firs...

What If I...Lived?: Sometimes
http://what-if-i-lived.blogspot.com/2012/09/sometimes.html
What if, instead of mere day to day existence, what if I.lived? Saturday, September 8, 2012. The week that should have seen me kicked out of the dive motel, I asked for help and my parents rescued me. It has been 31 years since I last used meth. But I am not cured; I am still an addict. And reality stepped in and slapped me in the face every time I looked in the mirror: the ravages of my addiction were piling up on me, pound by pound. I was an obese caricature of a 40-something husband and father. Now I'...

What If I...Lived?: Top 5 Reasons NOT to Lose Weight
http://what-if-i-lived.blogspot.com/2013/04/top-5-reasons-not-to-lose-weight.html
What if, instead of mere day to day existence, what if I.lived? Tuesday, April 30, 2013. Top 5 Reasons NOT to Lose Weight. Number 5: N.F.E. Syndrome. You know how occasionally you sleep with your ear flap folded over? And how when you wake up and “unfold” it, it slowly comes back to life? And as blood-flow is restored, it fills with excruciating pain? Yeah that. It happens to me nearly every night now, occasionally several times per night! I suppose another possibility is that I now sleep so deeply (the ...

http://what-if-i-lived.blogspot.com/2013/05/first-annual-what-if-i-lived-5k-run.html
What if, instead of mere day to day existence, what if I.lived? Monday, May 13, 2013. First Annual What If I Lived 5K Run, Walk, Stroll. 8230;with help from God, encouragement from friends and family, and a few lifestyle changes. But NOT.

Run it…with a respectable time even. What If I Lived 5K Run, Walk, Stroll. Once upon...

What If I...Lived?: Beginnings
http://what-if-i-lived.blogspot.com/p/beginning.html
What if, instead of mere day to day existence, what if I.lived? Here's the Beginning of What If I Lived:. I was actually down 6 pounds from my all time high of 288. I asked my wife to take this photo at an apple orchard while my son played in the hay bale maze and I spent most of the time sitting at a picnic table. I wanted to start my new life on Novemeber 1. Unfortunately it would be January 2011 before I would break free of my chains and get serious about reclaiming my life. Lucky #7 for my first race!

What if, instead of mere day to day existence, what if I.lived? Thursday, September 12, 2013. Photos From the WIIL 5K. The 5K run was a success, although most of the participants were already pretty darn healthy. We met a few new friends, realized our neighbors/landlords were really good grill-chefs, and that our friend Jennifer makes some awesome kabobs! Miraculously, the park was devoid of mosquitoes! And the after-run festivities were delicious, refreshing and fun! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Once upo...
