SuperDaddy Sang for 8,500 people!!!



Recommended Posts

Thanks for the responses, everybody! It really was a total rush. I don't usually get very nervous in front of a crowd anymore, as we've been singing for nearly a dozen years...but it was certainly the biggest venue we've sung for before. What was a real thrill was just the difference in confidence that I have because I'm more comfortable in my own skin thanks to the weight loss. Love that BAND! As you can see...I sing with a bunch of skinny little dudes, so it's nice to not look quite so odd in comparison.

Unlike most rock stars, I enjoyed a nice slice of humble pie as arrived in Mpls, and had to change my kids diapers and make them dinner! What a great life! If you ever want a pick-me-up to your day, you can stop by the website and listen to us, or grab a CD.

Rock on, bandsters!

That is so awesome!!! I love Jars of Clay and Chris Tomlin. I listen to Christian music all the time, especially when I am feeling stressed out. It relaxes me and reminds me that God is with me.

What an amazing opportunity!!! Congratulations!

Rock on my Christian brother! How awesome!!!

So glad that you and your band had a good time. Praising God is what it's all about, isn't it!

Keep spreading the good news and your rewards will be many!

Fantastic! I so admire those who can use their gifts to praise the One who bestowed them! I try to do that as a teacher, but it's a lot less people at one time. And they don't all believe. And, it's public school, so it's touchy. You are living my secret fantasy life...singing! But believe me, it's best if I only sing in the car! Thanks for posting this! Cindy

Hey Cindy,

Keep being a light in that public school! I also teach in a public school....what an amazing ministry you can have there with non-believing families. Let them see Jesus through your actions of compassion and fairness, instead of words that could get you in hot Water. I'm pretty blessed to be surrounding by other Christians teaching with me...including my principal! I sometimes wonder if I take too many risks with what I say in class. But you know what...they can't get on you for answering any questions that the kids ask you...even in regards to the true Christmas story this season! Speak the truth!

Thanks for the encouragement!

Knoxville here and praise the Lord for your talent. He gave you a very special gift. What an awesome crowd. Why didn't I hear about this. Of course I'm about 3 hr. from Nashville, but if I knew there was a bandster singing I would have made my way there. WTG.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
