		<description><![CDATA[What a great way to spend a Wednesday morning… Sitting in a Starbucks parking lot using their Wi-Fi while talking to Jay Jacobs from Season 11 of The Biggest Loser.  Some of you may be thinking “Jay…Jay… who was he?”  Well, I was just like you.  In fact, until the last few episodes, Jay said he laid low on purpose so that he wouldn’t make any waves and make it as far as possible in the game.

		<description><![CDATA[I have been working out hard.  I have not been losing weight.  I am frustrated.  I recently saw that an old friend of mine lost over 100 pounds this past year.  I was really excited for him and decided to give him a call.  I asked him what he had done and his answer was suprisingly simple.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the biggest problems I use to have was saying "Tomorrow I am going to get started again."  I would tell myself this over and over until tomorrow became next week, next week became next month, and next month became next year.  I sat year after year spinning my wheels thinking "Tomorrow's the day."]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I was out on a bicycle ride with a good friend of mine.  As we were riding we started talking about the progress I've made over the past year in the sport of triathlon and how I am feeling as I prep for next Ironman in November.

I told him I felt unbelievably different.  I am down several pounds, my cycling has improved, and so has my running.  Most importantly, my mindset has improved.  Last year when I took on the Kona Ironman I had no idea what I was doing.  I didn't know that carrying around extra weight could affect me as much as it did.

Last weekend I was flipping through the channels and caught the replay of the Kona Ironman on NBC.  I watched the race and saw my brief segment once again.  When I saw myself, I wasn't disappointed, I was a little sad.  The reason I was sad was because I knew that I had a false sense of how I looked and felt physically.

		<description><![CDATA[Where do I begin?  Aside from marrying my wife and having my two boys, this has been one of the best weeks of my life.  I am transforming once again this time from the inside out.  I don't know how much I lost this week, I chose not to weigh in till next week.  I will say that I know I am losing weight because my clothes are all getting too big!

		<description><![CDATA[Well, day 1 at Biggest Loser Fitness Ridge Resort is done.  It started at 6:15 AM with a hike and the rest of the day was filled with working out and having classroom sessions.  In total I ended up doing around 7 hours of work outs.  Though many of the classes were challenging, you may be surprised to find out what class was the hardest for me.

		<description><![CDATA[Today the blogoshere is lit up with articles from people that are losing weight who had successful and healthy Super Bowl party experiences.  This is not one of those blogs.  This morning I woke up with a food hangover that made me feel tired, sluggish, and unmotivated to go to the gym.

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I wrote something that really got me thinking.  The question was: What are you suppose do when the person you love doesn't love themselves?  Today I am going to try and give a reasonable answer to this question.  More specifically, i am going to answer a question that I have received at every speaking engagement I have done over the past four years.  How do I get my spouse to workout and make changes?
