Work Time Pressure and Weight / Health Management

Sometimes, work schedules get hectic and require added effort on our part to make things happen for our team and for our projects.

I'm writing this note to remind everyone (and myself, too!) it is a MUST to make time for our health. Even if we might have to work added hours, we need to sleep, eat good food, and get moving each and every day.

I'm especially talking to the dads out there who are working longer hours, and not remembering to make time for sleep, good food choices, and exercise...

If you need a bit of help in making better choices - I have something for you to consider:

Visit this page where you can grab a free guide to two great tools for beating the "tech-dad" spare tire. Here, I share a guide on the D.I.E.T. concept and the Triple-S method for getting on track, quickly, to losing weight.

Here I am with my family in the hand of the giant, about to enjoy some amazing zip lines in Costa Rica during our Christmas 2023 and New Year Celebration 2024!

This is something I could NOT do, if I had continued down the path I was on for my weight and health. It's worth taking care of yourself - you are worth it!

"It's gonna be a bright, bright, bright, sunshiny day"....Now, where are my sun glasses? Remember to protect your eyes, and your health.

Be well, keep smiling, and take care of yourself today!

I’ve been getting great feedback from dads taking on my 30 day, 10 lbs down challenge.

I keep hearing the same message: The challenge is helping them take manageable steps toward getting healthier and losing some weight!

Check it out if you are interested to sign up:

I let the pressure to perform and provide for my family take my focus away from the foundation of what it takes to be successful: My own health.

As I’ve reached my 50th year, I have realized with more and more clarity how important having health is for our lives.

I’m working to reach as many other fathers, who maybe have some work to do on health and body weight, working in technology/industry jobs - yes, you who are normally sedentary and seeing the time slowly draining away your health!

If you don’t consciously choose to make time in your days for your health - it can slip away in the blink of an eye.

PS - here I am swinging in Costa Rica this past December, on a swing I wouldn’t have been able to do 25 years ago, because I was too overweight and would have exceeded the limit!

A change in mindset and approach to weight and health can work wonders!!

I used to have a really overpowering sweet tooth - traveling for work would mean eating something like this.

Lately though, I say no thanks - this was my seat mate’s snack.

I still enjoy a cookie or two now and then, but homemade is always better (thanks to my lovely wife for making them)!!

Lots to be thankful for these days - my family most of all! I hope all is well and sending happiness and good health your way this winter!

I'm super happy to have my family - what a gift! They are the reason I work on my health, I can't wait to see what life brings us next!
