First Post!

Welcome to my journey! 

Hi, I'm Bill Roberts.  I am a 47 year old husband, father of 3 and a work-in-progress.

After doing some soul searching while on vacation in July, 2012, I chose to stop drinking and began attending Alcoholics Anonymous.  I also adopted the Ultramind Solution for eating.  Since making these two important commitments to my health, I've gone from 225 to 195 pounds (at 5'8" height).  My goal is 165 and feel confident that I'll get there.

I've got other goals, that I will begin to document and track in this blog.  As many others often do, I am performing a self inventory because I think there is much more I'd like to accomplish.

I also recognize that I have many harmful thinking habits that have self-sabotaged me in the past, and the most damaging is perfectionism.  It is crippling to the mind and spirit.

Please share with me your thoughts and experiences as I go on this journey of self-discovery and progress, not perfection.
