The Incredible Shrinking Man!

As some of you may know, Robert's been working since January to get in better shape. In addition to his own efforts, our gym hosted its own version of Biggest Loser for the Republic area. After 6 weeks of working with a trainer and specific meal plans, Robert came in 2nd place! Since January, he's lost over 60 pounds! He's not hit his ultimate goal, so he's still working at it!

It's been fun to see and hear people's reactions when they've seen him after the weight loss! We've had funny moments along the way such as when I went to hug him and felt something hard on his side. I asked him what it was and he replied, "That's my muscle." I suddenly realized one day that I could get my arms around him and clasp my hands together! I'm so proud of him. Now to think about going shopping to get him clothes that actually fit...
