Thursday's Thoughts

It is amazing to me how good I feel today! I have a new "pep in my step". I think because I am back to doing something comfortable and I feel so good knowing I am a powerful woman who makes up her own mind,  and her own decisions. Just knowing I am in a familiar place makes me smile :-)

Can't wait to see some results at tomorrow's weigh in!

Hold the toast!!

After writing an earlier post, I really thought about what it is that "I" am looking for in my weight loss journey. Everyone says and does there own thing when it comes to what works for them when it comes to dieting. I am keeping things honest with you, I enjoyed the time I had off of a Low Carb diet, but the feeling of "enjoying" those foods has long passed for me. I have been really thinking and Praying about what to do from here on out on my weight loss journey, and I have decided to go back to what has worked the best for "me"...Low Carb.

I am giving myself another challenge to jump start my weight loss again. Now I never really did bad on WW, dont get me wrong but the scale isn't moving and I want to see those numbers keep on moving down and get to my goal weight:0)


I am challenging myself to a 2 week challenge to give my weight loss the jump start it needs!

"The greatest realization is this; God will be with me every step of the way. He never quits, and he never loses. If I ever feel like I don't have the strength to continue, I can always find strength in God. He holds the power for me to suceed in my new life, and he will give it to me every time I ask.... One step at a time. One day at a time. One sucess at a time."

Week in review

So I am taking a good hard look at the things I have been eating this week. I have come to some conclusions.

*1- I have been eating way to many processed foods!

*2- I have been feeling very bloated since switching diet plans. This is caused by too much salt in my diet.

*3- I drink way to much diet pop.

*4- Since switching diets I now haven't been eating enough protein.

All in all I think this contributed to my stand still on the scale this week. I am going to do somethings different this next week and eat more whole foods and add eggs back into my diet. No coffee for a week and less pop...more water. Let's see how this impacts the scale at the next weigh in.

Prayers!

I am asking for Prayers for a close family member. We just got word that his Cancer has moved into his lungs, liver and chest lymph nodes. He has been diagnosed with Mucoepidermoid Cancer and because of this being so rare they are not sure what options they have.

If any of you know of someone who has had this type of Cancer, or treatment options please let me know.

God is always at our side, and people hear our Prayers.
