Are you looking for a personal fitness prescription for a strong, lean body and a calmer, focused mind.

Weight lost – 12 pounds
BMI – down 1 point. Though Im not a believer in this number – its improvement warrants mention
Pairs of pants donated to Goodwill because they are too big – 1
Pant size – from 46 to 44
Shirt size – from 4X to 3XL Tall
Into week 4 of second round of Green Tara. Weight loss holding at 11 pounds, but I’d really like to see 12 for the 10 week total effort (after off weeks).
DEAR STEVE:
You have enriched the lives of so many and have truly made a mark on this world.
Thank you for all you have meant to me and for all you have given to me.
You are my guide, my brother and most of all my friend.
Ai Imawa with love.
