Michael’s Progress – Month #4

January 14th, 2010 alobermeier No comments

Phew!  The holidays are over!  Although he admits that the past month has been tough, Michael’s efforts have continued to pay off.  At his official weigh-in, the scale read 412 pounds!  

Besides losing weight, Michael has made GREAT strides in improving his strength and cardio training.  With a smile on his face, he’ll tell you, “I just feel better!”.

He’s “the incredible disappearing man,” states Sarah Celine Elliot of Sarah Celine Photography, who meets with Michael once a month to photograph his progress.  Note:  Michael’s January portrait will be posted later this month.  

Be sure to watch Michael’s fourth official weigh-in that aired on WFRV’s Sunday Morning News (01/10/10).  His progress is also being tracked monthly in Nature’s Pathways Magazine.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!  Luke’s Celebration of Support (aka “the big party”) will be held Saturday, April 17, 2010 from 4-11pm at Waverly Beach in Menasha, WI.  For more info, visit the “Benefit Info” page on this website.
