Dan Jones

I am 48 years old.  I have been wanting to lose weight for a while now.  I have 2 small grand-kids and I want to get healthy so I can keep up with them.  I want to make sure I am here for all of the great moments that life has to offer.

    Dan the man,
    I need some of your ability to “suffer in silence”. I don’t know how you do it, but you never complain even when you are in a ton of pain. I admire your ability to push through to the end and do everything that is asked of you. You are so strong! Keep up the good work!

  27. Lisa says:

    Way to go yesterday! You did an awesome job! I can’t believe how far we’ve all come. I had a little extra spring in my step yesterday knowing that I did 13.1 miles!

    See you tomorrow!

  28. Jeremy Sessions says:

    It was great walking with you too! Sorry the phone kept going off. I had to get to the jobs that kept coming in. There was wide spread water damage. I always enjoy talking to you. I did end up with 2 large blisters and sore from my neck to my toes. It was hard work catching up to you guys… It was all worth it for the work out, chatting with you guys, and of course giving my little girl the longest shoulder ride of my life.

  29. kstarkey1959 says:

    Dan, You are the man….I am so very proud of you for staying the course and finishing that 13.1 mile prayer walk…..you are such a teddy bear….thanks for the encouragement you give me and for enjoying a healthy breakfast with me from time to time….keep up the great work.

    Dan,
    Thank you for the late night phone call after the show. I really thought that was nice and I was glad to hear that you like the show. You are a great person and we are all lucky to be your friends. Throughout this contest you have grown so much, both physically and emotionally. Your confidence is growing expontetially. You are my inspiration and you are great. Keep up the good work and stay focused. This is only the beginning for us.

    Dan,

    I had a BLAST working out next to you today in Amber’s class. I just LOVE your smile. You make me feel so good about everything, althought I was having a hard time keeping up with you today…

    I really hope that we remain friends long after this contest ends. I think we could be lifelong friends:)

    HUGS,

    Dan,
    I am just amazed by you!! When I found out you gave up a trip to Hawaii to be a part of this competition, it just further demonstrated where your heart lies in this program. You are amazing!! Keep pushing hard, you are doing great.

  41. cicicase says:

    It is inspiring to walk with you each morning and I especially enjoy your marital advice. Maybe I am no such an easy person to live with after all??

  42. Tom Schutte says:

    Dan you have come such a long way. You have a great attitude and work ethic and that will get you to your weight loss goal.

  43. MrsSchutte says:
