From Matt: In the last several weeks, I have made a lot of changes to my diet, to my sleeping habits, and to the way that I think about food. It is as much mental as it is phyical.
The amount of support that I have received from my wife, family and friends as been overwhelming. For more than 20 years, I have been joining my buddies that I have known for over 30 years or more on an annual golf trip. This year, it was last week to sunny Arizona. I passed on the trip this year in order to take advantage of this incredible opportunity with The Fittest Loser. If I was going to miss this trip, I wanted to make sure I had a great week of working out and eating right.
About half way through the week I was feeling worn out. My wife kept telling me how well I was doing and that I needed to push through it. Wednesday night, the boys called from Arizona to say hi and tell a few funny stories from the trip. They reassured me that I made the right choice in not going and encouaged me to keep it going. It was great to hear from them on the trip and it was what I needed to push on and have a great finish to the week. It is so important to have a great support team during this journey.
So to all of my support team I say, “thank you for all that you do for me. I could never do this by myself.” I look forward to all of you seeing less of me soon.
Keep up the great work Matty…we can celebrate by doing a guest bartender gig together at HOB….miss you and Col, let’s get together soon!! Love you
