Still, skinny, chubby guys like me get nervous around people who are too thin... I always just want to make em eat a pizza and wash it down with a milkshake or something. You raise the bar too high for those of us with french-fry addictions! As the owner of a Basenji (which I insist is still rather wild) I can attest, the girl does eat!

I'm actually kind of weird. You see, every time I stop training for a relatively long time --such as when the competition season is over--I LOSE weight instead of GAIN weight. And as soon as I resume training I GAIN weight. Now, don't think that I don't eat well. I do eat well. My girlfriend even tells me that I eat like an African wild Dog! ASimpleSinner:

All I can say, Jorge, is the same as any Italian Granny would say (or Jewish one for that matter) "Eat! Eat! Nobody likes a skinny Santa! You with all that running!"

It is great to see family and friends being involved in such a great moment. Thanks for posting this. It is great to see excitement about confirmation...it seems at times it is viewed as "graduation from Church," when in reality it is something very special!
