I really hope everyone who has chosen to stop or slow down their smoking has had success with it. I know how hard it is.

My stint in the hospital with my lung infection has sure jolted me into action. So far I've managed to stop smoking, have some other minor and not so minor health things checked out and treated. My next major change is dropping 130 lbs. I am 5'9" and I'd guess I weigh close to 280 I'm not really sure I don't own a scale nor do I intend to get one. So I can't claim to be healthy until I get my weight under control as well. I'm not putting the pressure of following some weightloss plan on myself I'm just eating less and healthier. In one week I will be cutting as much sugar from my diet as I can. I've already switched to black coffee, I used to be a double double guy. I've spoken to my doctor and read loads of info on cutting refined sugar from your diet. Everything points to I'll be in a world of discomfort for a while but like my cigarette cravings...it will pass.

I was thinking of joining a soccer league. Soccer was something I was heavily involved in when I was younger and I still do follow it. So I figure why not join a summer league.

Thanks for letting me ramble on and on. It sure has helped me a lot just putting my thoughts out there.
