Self improvement

So far I am doing well with my diet. 1,700 cals per day, eating mostly healthy raw food. I'm always looking for more healthy superfood to improve my health. I LOVE the Acai juice that we got from Costo. I also saw David Wolf on youtube discuss other superfoods like Maca, Marine Phytoplankton, and Goji berries. I'm still wondering where to get those, but I'll find out. Also, I've lost 9 lbs since november 1st and I've been working out at anytime fitness. I love that place. I put up 175 lbs three times on the bench, which is good progress. I hope to soon pass the 205 lbs mark that I maxed out in highschool. Health is good.

uh, how many more times will this list change?

FOR SURE
Nathan Klement SS/2B
Eric Engstrom LC
Nathan Steele 2B/C
John Bonde 3B/LF
Chris Halbleib 1B
Tom Roeske SS/3B
Andrew Klement RF/C

MAYBES
Jay Navis P
Eric Litke SS/3B
Al Schmucker RC

ADDITIONAL PLAYERS
Jim Weiland P
Craig "Dino" C
Bill Jennaro
Ryan Krueger
Kyle (Craig's friend)
Eric Nierode

next year's softball

a few different senarios

Nathan Klement SS Chris Halbleib 1B
Chris Halbleib 1B Nathan Klement 2B
Nathan Steele 2B Eric Litke SS
Tom Roeske 3B Tom Roeske 3B
Kevin Sand P John Bonde LF
John Bonde LF Eric Engstrom LC
Eric Engstrom LC Al Schmucker RC
Al Schmucker RC Dakota Witte RF
Dakota Witte RF Kevin Sand P
Craig "Dino" C Nathan Steele C
Andrew K. AH Andrew K. AH

The second order would be a much stronger team and it would involve dropping Craig for Eric Litke in the starting line-up. I'd be sad not to play 2B, but if we can get Eric, it's worth it. Additional players would be Andrew Klement and Craig.

Next year's team

This is a tough thing, dropping people from your team to add new ones. I hope no one takes it personally. Here's what I have in mind for next year.

Nathan Klement
Chris Halblieb
Eric Engstrom
John Bonde
Nathan Steele
Kevin Sand
Andrew K.
Dakota Witte

maybe list
Bill Jennaro
Craig
Eric Litke
Al Schmucker


Note: this list will probably change frequently throughout the course of the next 9 months.

Softball

Holy crap, am I sucking at softball on Mondays. It's weird. I'm ok on defense and crappy at batting on monday, but then on thursday I suck at defense, but atleast I can hit the ball. Weird. I'm batting .346 monday v.s. my .500 for thursdays. Well, my goal was .600, but that's not gonna happen. There's always next year.

Softball

Game 1 Open door Red v.s. Christ the king.
Final 34-4 in 5 innings.
My Stats. 2-4, single, dbl, 2 runs scored, 4 RBIs.

Weight loss

I am currently on a new diet called "Don't eat so frickin much ya fat moron". It's really simple. I limit myself to 1700 calories a day and I've been losing weight like a mofo. I figured out that I'm losing .625 lbs per day with a total loss so far of 13 lbs in a couple weeks. At this rate I will reach my goal of 175 lbs by the end of June, (Just in time for the disc golf trip), however I'm giving myself a goal of 175 by my birthday in september. This is extremely reasonable since I'm losing weight so fast. Now, I know they say it's bad to lose weight faster than 2 lbs per week, but screw them. If I don't see fast results I lose confidence and forget what it is that I'm doing. I have a short attention span. So once I reach 175 I will increase my caloric intake to somewhere around 2,600 per day or whatever it takes to maintain that low weight. Note: I have not been lighter than 200 lbs since highschool. I have tried two other massive diets which have resulted in great stress and I forgot exactly what I did to lose the weight. This diet is simple and easy to remember. No more that 1700 cals per day PERIOD.
