Introduction
Snoring i s the vibration of respiratory structures and the resulting sound, due to obstructed air movement during
breathing while sleeping. The structures which are affected are usually the uvula and soft palate. Because of blockage,
there is an improper flow of air, which causes the person to snore . The throat or pharynx is a muscular tube that relaxes
when you sleep, thereby decreasing in size. In some people, the narrowing is enough to cause vibration of soft tissues in
the pharynx, and this produces the noise of snoring. You can say that snoring is simply a loud sound that one makes during
breathing while asleep. Snoring is noisy breathing through the mouth or nose during sleep.
Scientists: Watermelon yields Viagra-like effects
By BETSY BLANEY, Associated Press Writer 56 minutes ago
LUBBOCK, Texas – A slice of cool, fresh watermelon is a juicy way to top off a Fourth of July cookout and one that researchers say has effects similar to Viagra — but don’t necessarily expect it to keep the fireworks all night long.
Big John’s Steak and Onion Sub
“Big John’s Steak and Onion” is a favorite local fast food franchise
here in Flint, Michigan. They have been in business for as long as I
can remember, and they are always very busy. The food is
made-to-order on big grills right in front of you, so it wasn’t hard to
figure out how to duplicate this at home. I just wanted to share this
recipe with those who may not otherwise get a chance to enjoy this
incredible sandwich.

I want to lose some extra baggage. About 40lbs. of it. You see i, have a wedding coming up in October of which i am one of the star players (the Groom). I want more than anything to be at a good weight so that i dont look like some fat slob for the rest of my life in those pictures. I’ve done all of the planning and now the tough part is upon me, execution.
Ill be posting up my spreadsheets that i am using for tracking my progression. I intend to use this blog as a kind of personal accountability platform. I will be posting stats and maybe even pictures so that in the end i can see a before and after.
40 pounds in 4 months…
Sounds steep, but i think know i can do it.
