I feel great today with a new resolution to quit drinking.  I'm tired of being a slave to it.  i woke up early today at 5am and had coffee and read the Bible.  It felt good to get up early even though I don't have a job.  My last job was a contract job and it ended in late February.  I really want to be sober for my wedding in August to show people I haven't seen in a while the old, happy Brandon that many of them knew but haven't seen in a while.  I've been working out and I'm feeling stronger.  I'm going to go work out now.  Later.

It has been about a month since my last blog post but I am going to try to keep up with it every day.  I have been trying to stay sober because alcohol has caused me nothing but problems in my life.  Sure a night out is fun but it has caused a lot of problems too and I think the problems outweigh the good.  I want to be HAPPY without drinking.  I want to feel comfortable at a party or at a restaraunt or at my soon to be in laws house without having to drink.  I want to be even keeled and not up and down.

I also have continued to try to lose weight and it has been going alright.  I am at 180lbs.  My fiance and I have been eating healthier, she wants to lose weight for the wedding I want to lose weight for my knees and my future so I can run around with our children if we ever have any.  I also want to lose weight for our honeymoon which will hopefully be in Hawaii!  I want to surf and relax and be in the best shape of my life.
