First Day of the Rest of My Life
Eph.3:16-19-I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
-This verse is going to be my theme for this whole self transformation I’m about to go through. I’m recreating myself. Why? Because it’s been a long over do unsuccessful 3 yrs of attempting to get my life back on a healthy track with diet and exercise. Last year was my first year to actually loose 10 lbs and get a good start. I thought I was surely on the upward climb. Then my Great Grandma Vinnie died. She has been such n influence on my life. Even through her dying days she taught me so many things about character. After she passed I had no motivation. I had no idea this was even an issue until I had no desire to workout anymore. 2011 will be a year for big changes because I hope to set a goal for 70 lbs. I’m not sure if I’m going to limit myself to summer for one big goal or if I’m going to do 10 lb goals. For now I’m just doing my workout and eating healthy. Next week I start calorie counting. No more fast food trips. No more fruit snacks, no more spicy nacho doritos, no velveeta mac and cheese cups, no caprisun, and no cheez-its. All this food is surrounding me in my room daily. This is going to be a true test of character. I want to be healthier, happier, and in shape for my best friends wedding in May! Say a few prayers for me if you would. These workouts are going to take a strength that is not my own for awhile. I’m going to need the power of God!!!! I’m going try to give updates daily on my progress and how I feel. Bring on the weight loss!!!! :)
