Month 4 of Workout

Posted in: Eddie's Dish, Uncategorized

Dear Friends,

Happy Memorial Day! Went to my usual gym appointment today @ 2pm with Danny of New Direction Fitness in Danville. I’ve been beating myself up lately because I haven’t become as thin as I was hoping in 4 months, although I haven’t done myself any favors by breaking the nutrition rules more often than I can count….including drinking. Why is eating healthier and exercising regularly SO DAMN HARD???????? Because I’ve been mad at myself for not reaching my goals sooner, I’ve been moody and not much fun to be around lately. But something happened this weekend to change all that. I noticed a change in my body, a change I didn’t expect. I have always lost weight by loosing fat, never building muscle and strength. Because I wasn’t loosing fat quickly this time, even after 4 months, I was thinking about quitting. But over the past week and this weekend, I noticed several changes …. that my posture is better and I have more strength and stamina than I’ve felt in a long time. My body is changing, but this time from the inside out. So, I’ve decided to stop whining about it and bust my ass and continue to get in the best shape of my life. If I don’t do it no one will do it for me … and I don’t want to be a Big Fat 40 year old. I hope I’ve motivated or inspired someone out there …. THIS SHIT IS HARD WORK! Anyone who says it isn’t is a big, fat liar.

Stay Gold, Ponyboy, Stay Gold … Eddie (Well, S.E. Hinton)

Why is getting in shape so HARD?

Posted in: Eddie's Dish

Dear Friends,

It’s been a rough week in the “getting in shape” department. Of all the work and challenges I’ve had in my life … loosing weight and getting in shape is ABSOLUTELY the hardest. I’ve been working out since February, but feel like not much has changed … although honestly it has. I only have until the end of July to meet my goal of getting in great shape, so I’ve got to stop whining and get a move on. Off to the gym now to disappoint my trainer yet again. On the brite side … THANK GOD I LOVE MY TRAINER, DANNY, AND MY GYM.

Fatty Out

PS. I’m done moaning … TIME TO GET BACK IN THE GAME EDDIE!!!

Thank you Bay Area Country Fans!

Posted in: 95.7 The Wolf Events

One thing my mom always used to tell me was how she hated “hello’s”. Always thought that was strange, I mean “who doesn’t like hello’s?”

It wasn’t until today I realized what she meant, it’s with every hello, there comes a “Good-Bye”.

Today is the hardest day in my radio career to where I have to say “Good-bye” to you as I relocate back East to be closer to family.

The birth of The Wolf in the Bay Area was the most amazing thing I’ve ever heard in my radio career. It was at the very moment when I heard it, that I knew San Francisco was in for a treat. I do hope The Wolf has brought you much happiness as it has me in these past couple of years.

The fact that I can touch peoples’ lives in a positive way brings joy to me as a person. If I can make someone laugh, think, or remember a special time, then I know I’m doing what I was meant to be doing.

There was never a doubt in my mind that I was meant to be at the Wolf in San Francisco. I will miss every single person I had the great opportunity to work with. The Prime Minister of Twang (my boss) has made a difference in my life which I will hold and cherish forever.

But most of all, I will miss you, the Wolf listeners. It’s because of you and your support and your passion that country music will always have a home here in the Bay Area.

Working with you through your work day has brought much love and joy to my heart knowing your listening to my show.

Normally I would say “Until Next Time”..but this time, there is no Next Time.. so I’ll just leave you with Much Love, Nikki
