A Blog in the Zone

A couple of weeks ago, I posted about my lifelong battle with my weight. Last week I was looking over at Mel's blog, Monday Morning Power, and saw this comment by a poster called "Diamond." I clicked on her profile and saw she had a blog called "A Day in the Zone." This blog is dedicated to Diamond's weight loss efforts. I read some of her posts and saw some content that I could use.

Diamond is a young mother, who seems dedicated to her family. I think that she can be a real help to those who need some tips to losing as little or as much as they need to. Remember New Years Day is only 2 weeks away and I'm sure that there will be some who will be making those resolutions to lose weight. It's always easier to do it with someone else.

Check it out. Her post today is regarding the Biggest Loser season finale. Leave some comments and give this young lady some encouragement.

Oh, I forgot to mention this. Diamond is a southern belle.

Stacy:We are all behind you. If I can find an article on line of someone my wife grew up with, who was last years weight loss king for TOPS, I will email the link to you and post it here also.

Diamond:You have something on your blog that all of us can use. You do a great job on it and I like to recognize that on blogs I read. Keep up the good work.

Post 800: Time to chat

Hi Guys, It's hard to believe that this is post number 800 for this blog. I started this blog out of my desire to communicate. Since radio and television is becoming more and more automated and less and less personal, I'm glad I made the decision to go in this direction as it has given me many blessings. When I first decided to write my musings, a friend from the radio and television boards who goes by the name of newsnomore, told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get any readers. The fact that I did in the early going made me surprised and grateful that anyone was enjoying what I wrote. I've had people tell me that maybe it wasn't meant for me to ever be in radio, that maybe my calling was blogging. Nowadays I think blogging makes for better two way conversation than terrestrial radio, especially the way I do it, non confrontational. The closest I come from any confrontation is the innocent digs that Pat and I shoot at each other. On an average day I get betwee...

Why?

What I'm posting now is with the blessing of Chelle. Chelle is the cousin of Suzanne's husband, Richard. I had gotten the impression from both of them that they were about as close as sisters. Suzanne had been a friend of mine since I had discovered one of her blogs in July, 2006. We would make reference to each other on our blogs and would have dialogue via email quite a bit. It was no surprise to me that she was friends to many other bloggers as well. I felt it was quite an honor to be held in as high esteem as I was. We even talked to each other on the phone on occasion. I felt as we had known each other for a long time. I also knew that Suzanne was having some personal problems, much of which had to do with a very troubled marriage. I would let her bounce things off me, and I would send her some encouragement. While she was going through some of her marital problems, she made herself available to give me a lift when I needed it. My son was having some problems of his own a...

Bananas and Sleep Apnea

First thing I want to do is welcome all the good folks from Australia who are checking me out as a result of Google searches. I recently wrote a post on sleep apnea , discussing my history with it and my new CPAP machine. Because of this and the name of my blog, this is the top site google lists when somebody types "bananas sleep apnea" into the search line on Google. All of the sites I have seen, that were not the usual sites that come here, ended in "dot au" which I know as Australia. Normally the only hit from down under is by my good friend David McMahon. The reason for the search is that a research team in Australia has found. as a result of a study, that drinking a banana smoothie may assist in easing conditions that cause sleep apnea. Phospholipids, or fatty acids, in bananas stay active in the mouth for six hours and may keep the throat open, therefore reducing the risk of choking. Further studies will expand to those, like myself, who need a breathing machi...
