All I got to say is, prop to prop, quit feeling sorry for yourself, get up off of you ass and do it!! You are one of the most successful & driven people I have ever met. In fact, you have always been a great motivational fuel for me both personally & professionally. This doesn't sound like the confident, almost cocky SOB that I know. When you get done w/your pity party, call me and we can go run. Lord knows my fat ass needs it just as much as you do!<BR/><BR/>Prop Love,<BR/><BR/>TedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13532698.post-1141958409895020802006-03-09T20:40:00.000-06:002006-03-09T20:40:00.000-06:00Chris, I have just spent 25 minutes looking throug...Chris, <BR/>I have just spent 25 minutes looking through your blog site. It was very interesting to me. I have known you for wow, 10 years now. That is impressive. I have never known you to not struggle with your weight. I think you wrote some very intuitive things on your last blog. Unfortunately society makes it hard for us to eat healthy portion sizes and healthy food. You are not alone believe me. I have really had to look at my eating habits since finishing playing basketball in college. I have gained some weight myself. I have found success in eating 4-6 small meals a day and then only eating healthy snacks in between. The key is to not have those bad foods in the house. I think you are finally getting serious about your weight and that brings me so much joy. I know you can run much further than I could ever run. I continue to be impressed with all that you do. You are truly an inspiration to everyone around you. That is why it is so important that you get the weight off and keep it off before it is too late. You are truly one of the greatest individuals that I have ever met. Keep up the good work. I expect to see you on the Biggest Loser. I will have all of Cincinnati watching my favorite person in the world. Take care and I will keep tabs on you.<BR/><BR/>Shannon.

I repeat,<BR/>NO MORE THINKING FOR YOU. JUST DO IT!!! PLEASE, keep this thought with you: when I teach training classes I always emphasize to my students not to think about "them"<BR/>or 'other people'. Those 'other' people are so wrapped up in themselves and their own problems that they really don't have time to make you their focus. You will not be ashamed tomorrow. Too many people are praying for you. love you. daAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13532698.post-1138923455472822122006-02-02T17:37:00.000-06:002006-02-02T17:37:00.000-06:00Whoever wrote Gods love note, I was crying when I ...Whoever wrote Gods love note, I was crying when I finshed your letter. It was exactly what I needed because when chris has tears, I have tears. <BR/>If we could ever be friends in real life I would love to meet you.

What you see in the mirror that makes you destroy yourself does not come even close to representing the person you are inside. Don't let that pull you down, because you know that deep inside you can do it all. I think that for you to do well in these next weeks you cannot think you just have to do it! YOU WILL DO IT! <BR/>BeijoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13532698.post-1138915521400792852006-02-02T15:25:00.000-06:002006-02-02T15:25:00.000-06:00You can do it, my friend—you can do it.
