Weight

Hello this is Darrick
I am sure that some of you are like, "Oh great he just tells the details of the day."
I do have a couple of things to add. First, unlike Jenn's brother Sam, I am down to a weight I have not been to in years. So you know what I am talking about Sam's blogspot link is to the right so you can check it out and be caught up on that weight issue. Seriously I can't remember when I was down to 200 lbs. I am not sure if people realize I got up to 227 lbs on recruiting. But on Friday I hopped on the scale after my shower and the digital readout said 200 lbs exactly. I am not saying Sam weighs 200 lbs just that I am happy to be 200 lbs again and that I lost some weight. My goal is 195 lbs, it was 200 lbs but now that I made it and I see in the mirror that there is a little more to lose so I set a new goal. This happened with no tricks or pills or weight lose plans. Just eating better, especially at home thanks to Jenn, and stopping eating when I am full and exercising a little more than before.

Now on to today. We had a fun day. Bow and Troy invited us over for BBQ and swimming. I can not believe how great the boys did swimming today. They were in the water for hours and hours. We bought them those noodles that lots of people have. They are great because they are like $1.50 each and they keep the boys afloat. We also got Jacob some Batman arm floaties. Micah and Jacob swam around by themselves. Jacob would not even get in the pool before. Now he is swimming around by himself. Micah is a really good swimmer with just a noodle around his waist he was all over the pool. Their swim teacher would be so proud. I am sure it will not be long before Micah swims with no float device help. I can see he has the ability just needs to overcome his fears.

Well that is all I have for now. Hope you have a good Sunday everyone!
