Maybe the "creep up" on the scale is due to all the added leg muscle?? (or the team partying??? Gotta love team cohesion and comradary!!*I can't spell worth a damn*) That's what I would have to say anyway. Good luck on the last final, and enjoy the time off. I know you had mentioned being extremely tired a few weeks back... take advantage and recoup!

After I posted the last post, it got me thinkin' bout all the great times those were... being on a team, traveling, all of it. Some of the best times of my life so far.... ENJOY IT... soak it up for all it's worth!

yes thats what I am thinking, in the summer time I could play for hours on end, but now my crease movements and butterfly slide is so much better tan before... I cant play as long as I used to be able to... I am still in excellent shape, I just feel stronger than I have in the past..... maybe I am just being a weird goalie, thats prolly what it is.


haha, yes.... travel hockey and having fun with your team mates all the experience and stupid crap you will do while traveling and in practices makes everything worth it. Im sure you also have your fair share of stories.

I think it's all the latter man!! Frickin' goalies! The whole play as long thing, maybe it's a matter of performance, or the caliber of play you are throwing out. Think baseball... pitchers throw 100 "game" pitches, and they are down for three days!!! Back in HS, they probably threw every other game! Just a thought...


OH MY GAAWD!! I could go on forever with all the "good time" stories!! I will never forget those times/events! A few from the ice, but mostly from practices, buses, trains, planes, hotels!!! Think of the funniest thing you "guys" ever did... we did the same shit 10 years before you!! You just may have perfected it!! After the OML, we sit in the "loft", which is a sports bar inside the rink I play at, and reminise about not too many games, but almost always about jokes, nicknames, sisters of other players , all that stuff. Someone should write a book called "Tails from A Lockerroom" and have athletes and former athletes tell stories about things they heard, or saw in a lockerroom, or while traveling as a team!! I'm sure every washed up has been could write their own entire book!! I know I could! I'm not jealous of you at all, just really appreciative of what you are going through. "GOOD TIMES"... HAVE THEM!!

very inspirational!!! well done x

you look amazing!

thanks!!!!!!

Well things are going great, I just got all my grades back and I have a 3.1.. which is awesome! Damn business teacher shes like 60 years old and screwed me with a C in her class errrrrr!!!!

I have been working out constantly back to my old cutting routine, for the past week I have been hitting anywhere from 4-6 mile days I ran 32 miles last week over the 6 days I worked out, out of the week... I lost 3 lbs already I am down to 178ish I need to get back to that 173-175 before the season starts up again january 17th!!

I have to laugh a friend of mine tagged me in a few older pics on facebook made me laugh quite a bit.....



My friend laura here I was about 260lbs in this photo...




and me as of lately.....

I just have to laugh, like I cant believe I would eat that many wings, or I would destroy a entire tub of ice cream that just makes me sick thinking about it, I could prolly eat a 1/3 or less of what I ate before hand its just such a different life style...... I have been living such a different life I need the pics to really appreciate what it felt like to live such a irresponsible lifestyle.

heres me as of lately..

the gf and I at one of her dances.

me after my last game destroying last years acha winners CAL I made almost 40 saves in a 4-2 victory!


and my little brother and I playing mini hockey haha!!

First off... great pictures. Second... what a great way to sum things up! That it is a Lifestyle.. that that lifestyle IS a CHOICE.... and the idea of living an "IRRESPONSIBLE" life is what lead to your "weight issues" in the past... powerful! I know that I could sum up my old habbits using the same word!

anWhat a great example you have set for "little Bro"!!

Congrats, and thanks for continuing to inspire.

wow, you look totally different! Thats a mega change. C:

You down 7 yet? Frickin' Goalies are CRAZY!!

^^ Just about getting there......

god I am so tired of being at a calorie deficit.... honestly it was nice to eat regularly all that time with working out it was honestly awesome! I dont know how the hell I did this before.... but I am down a mear 5-7ish lbs already.... given jan 10th I am at the 1 month point since I am at my deficit and I will be able to start eating regularly again..... and get back to plyometrix during the season next game is january 17th!
