I challenge Ben Roethlisberger to...

Last week Ben Roethlisberger was apart of some Golf thing, he shot an 81 after he got a call from Tiger Woods saying he would even break 100. Ben said he likes to prove people wrong, I watch the PTI of him saying so. I couldn't find the video after searching the internet for five minutes so I gave up. But I found the article on the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette here: Steelers QB fires 81

Well now, since Ben likes to prove people wrong. I want him to prove me wrong.

I bet Ben can't do any of these:

Give me an autographed Ben Roethlisberger Jersey.

A signed Steelers throwback helmet, with some of his teammates, not all but most.

Tickets to a game, good seats, no crappy upper deck.

Pay off my college loans (hey it's at 10,000 now! You can't tell me you don't have 10k just laying around Ben!)

Let me wear the Super Bowl rings so I can give the double bird to Ravens, Browns, and Bengals fans.

Buy me a beer, so I can say Ben Roethlisberger bought me a beer, what did he ever do for you?

Give me his cell number so I can text him telling Ben that he's super cool, or why and hell did you throw that pass into triple coverage.

There you go, it's a list of thing Ben Roethlisberger will never do. Prove me wrong Ben. Prove me wrong.

10,000 step challenge...

Seven weeks down, five brutal weeks to go.

Wednesday: 19,503
Thursday: 16,824
Friday: 14,143
Saturday: 19,626
Sunday: 14,653
Monday: 21,072
Tuesday: 14,174

That's an average of: 17,142

Now into Week 8 of this challenge I have not made a 5% increase only once, which I am very happy about. But these last few weeks have some weekly averages going into 20,000 (ok, the last two weeks). This will be brutal, but I'm up for the challenge.

This is also the first week I was able to drop weight two weeks in a row, it has been lose 2lbs, gain 2lbs for the past couple months. So I have to say dropping 1lb from last week is great, considering father's day.

Awesome Image of the Week

This weeks Awesome Image, my total from Father's Day.

Well kids, I miss my goal of one chicken. I had 2 wings, 2 legs, 1 breast, and 1 thigh. The potato wedges killed me, they're too good to pass up, plus I had to leave a little room ice cream. Good eats that's for sure. yum.

Father's Day

Look, it's a day just for me. No, not my Birthday, anyone can have that. I'm talking about Father's Day!! Because, well as frightening as it may be, I am a father (now say that in the Darth Vader voice).

Honestly, I could care less, it's just a day. I don't want any cards or crappy gifts. Lets be honest. It's not really a holiday. I don't get off work for Father's Day, so it is a fake holiday.

All I want is fried chicken. Having fried chicken on Father's Day has become a tradition on my Dad's side of the family, so every Father's Day from here on out will always be filled with fried chicken for me. Even if I have to go to KFC to get it myself.

Oh, and I'm not having just a few pieces. This year I'm going all out and attempting to eat an entire chicken. That's right two breasts, two wings, two legs, and two thighs. I can do it. I know I can. It's my day.

Awesome Image of the Week

10,000 step challenge...

Wow, it's been another week of tracking my steps. Below are my daily results from the past week.

Wednesday: 13,943
Thursday: 15,038
Friday: 13,206
Saturday: 19,552
Sunday: 6,748
Monday: 17,244
Tuesday: 16,382

That's an average of: 14,587

Below the 15,000 average, and well below the 20,000 goal I'd like to hit. But, gotta look at the positives here. I ran way more than I have the past few weeks, so I feel better about that. I have not lifted (weights) these past couple weeks, although I have a push mower and I get a great workout from that. This next week will include more lifting.

And YIKES! Sunday. What can I say, stayed out too late and didn't sleep well. Stupid sun filling the room with light. I did absolutely nothing on Sunday, but still came away with 6,748. Oh well, next week!

dugefresh.com

I finally used dreamweaver to make my site, instead of the tools Microsoft has for me to use, which are fine, but limiting at times. Now dugefresh.com is now seen in my vision, well kind of. I'm not quite done yet, and I'm not so sure I like the layout and overall design of the site. Not saying that the site isn't fine as is, I just want to push myself to do better. I still have some content to add and whatnot. I just wanted to get myself moving and get something up there.

So enjoy and any criticism is always welcome.

15,000 a day, pwnd!

I met my goal, now I would like to maintain that, maybe build on it. I did a little more in the morning last week, that I have not done this week, yet. I will tomorrow. Next goal is 20,000 a day average. That maybe rough, but looks attainable.

I will say this, my legs/feet are sore. But I do need new shoes, that's part of it.
