Today was tricky, I didn’t have my usual breakfast. I was going to miss my protein goal. So, I ended the day with Greek yogurt mixed with two scoops of protein powder.
A “chocolate pudding”. It was not what one might call “delicious.”
However, it got me to my goals. #195by50
I think I might start podcasting again. I’m considering a lot of different ideas. But, the one that has most traction with at the moment is talk about what I’m reading, studying in Scripture, and how it relates to spiritual well-being.
Does that resonate? Is there a different angle you think “The Pastor Next Door” should tackle?

After my lift today, I unlocked the 5 million pounds lifted badge! Pretty cool.
5 lbs down! 60 to go! #195by50
Hanging out at the University of Iowa for a football Saturday was fantastic! Loved spending the day with Amy, E, Paige, Alan and Lisa.
I keep getting subscribers on Substack. Perhaps I need to start cross publishing again? 🧐
It was sure fun hanging with Ethan and Paige tonight in Iowa City! Can’t wait for tomorrow, Iowa vs Indiana at Kinnick Stadium and tailgating with our friends the Fisks.
Traveled to Iowa today to visit E. Missed the protein goal, was a bit over on calories.
Tomorrow will be tricky with tailgating. But that’s OK, because it’s the journey not the destination.
If we claim to walk in the way of Jesus we are precluded from mocking those that appear to us as enemies. For in the way of Jesus there is no enemy to be mocked only image bearers to be loved.
I didn’t want to go to the gym today. I did anyway. Fitness is not a destination, it’s a journey. #195by50
A principle I am learning to embrace:
"When determining the size or complexity of a new habit ask yourself: What can I stick to — even on my worst day?, James ClearStart there. Master the art of showing up. Then advance."
Another day of hitting my macro goals.
I have figured out a fiber hack: Aunt Millie’s 5 Seed Low Carb bread. It has 35 calories and 9g of fiber per slice.
Forgot to get a pic of lunch (it was tuna and not very pretty 😂).
Cardio day was walking 18 holes (5.8 miles and 1000 ft of elevation). #195by50
Oh my, I just set up micro blog as a web app on my phone and it’s so slick. 10/10 recommend.
When you walk and play 18 holes of golf, you get a nice bit of exercise. Ditch the golf cart fam (unless you’re physically unable to play without it)! #195by50

Dinner was pizza and I still hit my goals. A little bit of planning goes a long way.
I have been listening to the Black Pumas this afternoon and dang…
If you’re looking for some good music, the guys are it. 🎶
