The Biggest Loser….

It’s such an inspiration to watch them work so hard to lose their pounds.

How can it be possible some one who was 407 pounds lose so much weight and become 193 pounds in such a short time?

 

 

HARD WORK

However,

Erik lost 214 pounds. And, life happened.  He's regained 122 pounds after that again.

Oprah:

"Now, this fan favorite is ready to admit that he's been lying to his friends, family and his fans. In the three years since his victory, Erik has gained back half the weight he lost and says he now weighs 315 pounds. As he gained, he continued to use older photos on his MySpace and Facebook pages and even turned down an offer to appear on The Oprah Show with past Biggest Loser contestants. "People, they don't see me. I can hide," he says. "I inspired so many people; so many people reach out to me. I feel like I let them down."

"Beyond the finish line, I'd heard from so many people maintenance is the hardest thing. [I used to think], 'Try losing 200 pounds.' But maintenance really is a lifetime."

Maintenance is really a challenge and it takes alot of effort.

Like wat Paul said in Philippians

“I don't mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection! But I keep working toward that day when I will finally be all that Christ Jesus saved me for and wants me to be. “

It’s tough. when we attained certain results we thought we have reached and we can take a break. but the bigger goal has yet to be achieved. to maintain wat has been and to reach forward to wat has not been.

I attended Prime Vision International’s 10th Anniversary Banquet.

They are made up of ordinary people. Really unpolished. Broken english. But Whole lot of Synergy. They are really a bunch of dynamic people with great vision.

Small Uncle started this company with nothing. Made alot of sacrifices. People dun understand why he is doing what he is doing. Family members talk behind. His family dun understand why he has gotta be away.

Today, he is successful.

100 over people working for him in Singapore and Malaysia.

What’s his secret? doing things others don’t like to do…

and i know tht did not just last for a short time. It was for a long long time.

 

“25 Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. 26 And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.
27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.”
28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.”
29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw that the wind was boisterous,[b] he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. “

Peter walked on water. He believed, he did it. but it was of a short duration. “you of little faith” = you of faith that lasted for a short while

Let’s be successful…. for LONG.
