You know you’ve arrived when you’re “Finished”
Well, this is kinda cool! I was having a little look at my WordPress statistics and noticed that somebody in Finland referred to a Restless Pilgrim post!

Man on a mission
Despite living in America for over two years, until recently I had never registered with a doctor. Well, a couple of months ago I finally got around to it and I went for a check-up.
Fortunately, everything was fine. However, prior to the check-up, I was weighed by a nurse. I was utterly horrified by the number which appeared on the scales: 175lbs. I knew I hadn’t been exercising much and I knew that I had been comfort eating, but I didn’t think it was that bad!
The following week I returned back to Boot Camp, determined to lose the weight. In fact, I set myself the goal to return to the weight I was when I first came to America, 155 lbs. I’ve been going to the 6am class every weekday and cutting down on my food portion sizes.
Well, today I had my first weigh-in since I’ve tried losing the weight: 167 lbs. That’s 8lbs in a month and a half. You have my permission to be impressed.
Only 12lbs to go…

Today is my patron’s Feast Day…
St. Peter, weak-willed and head-strong, pray for me.

Allow me to introduce you to the Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen:
