I’m thinking this must be the month/year I am finally starting to face some of my fears. Last month I enrolled in college after an eleven year break. I realized fear was the only thing holding me back so I took the plunge. Today I joined our community gym. To some of you that may [...]

I had a different post planned for today. It was all typed, edited, and scheduled to publish, but God had other plans. Last night at Lifegroup, Rebecca gave us a challenge for the week: maintaining our hope and patience when things don’t happen in the time we want them to. For each of us this [...]

At one point I had this post already written and ready to publish. All it was lacking was my weight picture. The original post was bitter. It displayed my frustration at eating right, exercising, and not losing any weight. I was sick and tired of it. It has been thirteen weeks and all I have [...]

Last week I changed my goal from thirty minutes of exercise three days a week to sixty minutes of exercise three days a week. Although I met my goal I am officially changing back to my original goal.
I found sixty minutes was taxing on me mentally. Whenever I thought of exercising for sixty minutes I felt dread and didn’t want to do it. I even broke it up into two sections of thirty but having to do that extra thirty was miserable. I wasn’t even going to complete my goal this week because I was dreading having to exercise for an hour. I hated it.

Welcome to my ninth week of the Ragamuffin Top Challenge. I have to say that I am finally starting to see some results. The numbers on the scale are slowly going down and so far this is my best week. Once again I have met my goal of exercising three times a week for at [...]

To do my exercise for the week I take the kiddos to the park and walk/run while the kiddos are playing. Our park has a walking track built around the play area and meanders around for awhile. It’s quite pleasant to walk. I only do the small section that goes around the play equipment because [...]

My weight fluctuates on any given day – water retention, pms, hormones, blah, blah, blah. So I don’t really go by numbers when it comes to losing weight (except to get under 200). My ultimate goal is to have a healthier lifestyle and to get rid of the belly fat. I’ve started with small goals [...]
