A&E are truly blessings. What a story, thank you for sharing. You both are awesome parents. We hope to meet them next time we are in Chicago.
p.s. I didnt sleep through the night from pregnancy up until her first birthday…Ryan on the other hand had no trouble, so props to you!

Also, PTSD is a very real thing. Do yourselves a favor and locate a therapist who specializes in trauma. You may even find someone who knows about treating trauma ater high-risk pregnancies. Shop around until you find someone you like. I did EMDR for mine about 10 years ago (not pregnancy related). I didn’t make much progress until I did ACT, Action and Commitment Therapy, in July. It has been really helpful for me.

Holy God, Jough. My mom didn’t know she wahaving twins until she went Into labor in her 7th month. My sister and I were 3lb each. I had no idea that you and Amanda had such a rough road to parenthood. It sounds like the scariest experience ever. Glad Amanda and the boys are safe and healthy.

Not bad. At all.
I’m the product manager of the Gym Source. And I’ve frankly helped sell and design more treadmills than, well, let’s say a lot of people. And I think this is one of the top three best ‘treadmill buying’ guides I’ve seen.

Comment on Lowering Cholesterol by John

This is my experience. I had issues with cholesterol so much that I even tried statins as well. They did help, however, one person once told me about some foods that are more natural way to reduce my cholesterol. I was lazy to start exercising so I had to turn to healthier food. After 6 months my cholesterol was down to 4 which is great. And guess what, I actually ate about more than 70% of the food listed here, so I am definitely into lowering cholesterol that I even started my own blog about it but I am glad that many more people are writing about it. We need to help out each other. Great post man!

[…] Jough recently reflected on his four years of "clean livin'". He made the decision to lose weight four years ago when he weighed 451 pounds. He has successfully lost 163 pounds since then, although there have been many plateaus along the way. He's now at 287 pounds, and would like to ideally reach 200. He's lost the weight so far by aiming to stick to a 2000 calories a day diet and by exercising regularly. He does two miles on his treadmill most mornings. Check out his wonderful blog at Clean Livin'. When Jough lost his first 50 pounds in 12 weeks, he posted this pic on his blog. It's 26 pounds of 1-pound slabs of butter. It was unbelievable to him that he could lose '50 pounds of butter' in such a short time. Check out his milestone blog post about his journey so far. […]

I had also a personal experience and confirm that by eating every morning oats with flaxseed and combining also by choice berries, raisins, wallnuts etc I managed to lower my cholesterol by 25%!
Lookforward to more information sharing on lowering LDL and raising HDL!

Thanks so much for sharing. I’m inspired to refocus on lowering my LDL and Triglycerides in the same way. Thanks again and keep up the awesome results.
