On Facebook, he writes:  "Happy new year! Some of you might know of my weight loss journey! I lost over 125lbs, through diet/exercise. Every new year, lots of folks wanna get in shape, and take control of their health! I would love to encourage and support you in this! For the next 30 days, I'll be sharing a daily encouragement; w/ meal & exercise options! YOU CAN DO THIS!!! Please share my page, and invite your friends and family to join us on our journey!!" 

He added, "YOU CAN DO THIS!!! Please share my page, and invite your friends and family to join us on our journey!"

Here are a few of his daily encouagements: 

"Day 1:

"30 Day Fresh Start Challenge"
(Phillipians 4:13) "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength"
Know & believe right now that getting in shape is something YOU CAN DO! Don't focus on potential defeat or past failure... Today is brand new! You are strong and able, but you've allowed yourself to be weak! Take control this very second, and know that you are in control of your health! PURPOSE in your heart that your new lifestyle starts today and you are NEVER going back! 
*** Start today by cutting BREAD/white flour/ whole wheat/whole grains, pastas and sugar. That's the 1st step.. Drink lots of water! Also, try and walk for 45 mins today! YOU GOT THIS!

"Day 2
30 Day Fresh Start Challenge"
(Psalm 37:5) "commit everything you do to the Lord; Trust him and He will help you"
When it comes to fattening foods that you love and crave, never say "I can't have that"... rather start saying "I DONT eat that"...
A physician friend of mine always says "eat as close to the garden as you can. Stay away from anything in a box". Go through your kitchen and get rid of JUNK! Start grazing & snacking on proteins/veggies/fruits/nuts throughout the day, and eat an early dinner (grilled chicken w/ green salad and asparagus/broccoli)
***Remember, weight loss is about 85%-90% DIET!! Even w/ vigorous exercise, you can blow it by bad eating. Combine clean eating w/ simple cardio for now (WALKING). This will greatly accentuate your weight loss! YOU GOT THIS!
‪#‎freshstart‬ ‪#‎RSDailyTips‬"

"Day 3
30 Day Fresh Start Challenge"
(Isaiah 40:29 - "He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak".)
Many people have told me over the years, "Ryan, you are so extreme with your dieting"... Thats exactly right! You have to be extreme! You CANNOT get truly healthy, half-heartedly. You are either going to do this or you're not! No one overcomes addiction through moderation!!! YOU MUST CHNAGE THE WAY YOU EMOTIONALLY FEEL ABOUT FOOD!!! Today, tell yourself that you are NEVER going back to the old routines and patterns of sedentary life-style! The battle is truly in your mind!!
Foods to eat today: salads; grilled chicken; tuna fish w/ corn chips; hard boiled eggs; raw nuts; fruits; raw veggies w/ ranch dip; black beans w/ everything! I eat TONS of apples
Foods to avoid: SUGAR; carbs; white flour; whole wheat/whole grain potatoes/starch; carrots; calorie drinks
YOU GOT THIS!
‪#‎freshstart‬ ‪#‎RSDailyTips‬" 

"Day 4:
"30 Day Fresh Start Challenge"
(Psalm 46:1 "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.)
As you're getting into your routine of clean eating, you might be feeling fatigue/weakness etc..this is normal when you are cutting out flour/sugar/carbs; its detoxing! After a few days of detoxing the carbs out of your body, you will begin to start having lots of energy, and your start to see results quicker. Do not compromise; do not cheat; DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TRY THINGS IN MODERATION!! -(that statement is your enemy) Remember, you're starting a new lifestyle! You can't walk the fence! PURPOSE IN YOUR HEART, that you're starting new! The old is gone!! YOU GOT THIS!
