Well pretty much wrote that in my other section but quick recap is I'm 30, married and have 2 handsome boys one 4 and the other is 21 months. I'm applying to nursing schools all over the state for fall 2012. I was laid off a year ago but been plugging away at school and supporting my wife in her career. I'm in recovery with 10 years with out a drop of anything. I enjoy life but now it's time to show that I am grateful for it. I have alot going for me but i have always stuggled with weight. Most of my life has been spent avoiding scales ans since most household scales dont go over 300 i really dont know what i got up to about a year ago i joined our local snap fitness and sporadically went. On their scale i was a le to see i was up to 321. I got a little off but nothing drastic. My family history is littered with heart disease and diabetes. I was sprinting to the death sentence. I want to play baseball with my boys and watch them graduate and get married and Play with my grand kids. I don't want to work in the health field and be unhealthy. My dream is to work in the UC Davis intensive care unit for kids. I have done some stand up comedy before and i want to work somewhere my humor ould be utilized but i love helping people. How can i help others if i cant help myself. I want to be the best husband to my wife and that includes my physi al fitness as well as my emotional commitment. But most importantly is i dont want to be the dad who tells his kids "do as i say not as i do". What my kids see me doing leaves a strong impression and I owe them a good message, better than the one I got. Im here though ultimately because this is for me. I owe myself more than i owe anyone else. I have chose this burden for most my life and it can only change with a simple decision, but the trick is to remember a decision is nothing without the action to follow through with it. My eyes are open... THIS ISN'T FOR ANYBODY...JUST MY BODY!

Thank you, Dom, I really appreciate that. Taking the plunge to join this forum last year was one of the best things and hardest things I’ve done. I think opening up and being super honest helps so much and if I can help anyone else by doing so, I’ll keep on keepin’ on!!!

hey Dom, congrats at being smoke free, i don't know how it is, i never did that, never wanted too, im the only one in my family that didn't, only my younger brother still does, my oldest brother died from it in june of 2010, lung cancer. just a little history, my mom wanted all of us kids to pick up that nasty habit, she had told me she actually enjoyed it, i asked why, it stinks it makes you smell bad, clothes and breathe, and it costs money, so why do it?? her answer was, i want to. she tried many times to get me to do it, i refused every single time. my younger brother dave has been smoke free for 15 yrs now, my oldest and only sister, has quit for about the same amount of time. my youngest bro won't give them up, don't know why but to me i think he will go before any of us do unless he changes. congrats Dom on being smoke free, you got this, now go get the maxformation grand prize!!!

Good to see you've set some goals and are following through. Congratulations on your degree as well! I just graduated in Fall with my AAoS as well... it's a proud accomplishment. Hope I didn't offend you when I responded initially to your friend request, I just didn't expect one so quickly and I'm used to social media randoms which are often fakes :) I too am a Star Wars fan! Can't wait til it hits the 3D screens soon, I'm going to try to see them all. Keep at it!
