Hello Again

WOW! I got busy. I really had it in my head that I would be blogging like every day! Haha, guess with my schedule, it just wasn't possible. Life has been a whirlwind for the past few weeks between traveling, having company here in my home for over a week, my youngest starting 3 year old pre k, fostering a st. bernard and MORE! Amidst it all, I have kept up my great eating habits!! I am so proud. I thought the stress of the past 2 weeks may cause me to cave, but I didn't! Yay! I will say, my schedule has limited my workouts over the past couple weeks. I haven't gone as often as I want/need. But overall, I am staying on track. Because of my less intense workouts, I have been stuck at 13 lbs! I cannot wait to hit the gym Monday for a new kicked-up workout routine!! It will include some of the same things I was doing, and some more intense things as well. I can't wait to see those scales continue to go down!

On another note, I experienced a victory while purchasing a new pair of jeans. I didn't have time to try them on before leaving the store and I ended up having to go back and trade for 2 SIZES DOWN! Hip Hip Hooray! That definitely made me happy. So, to my supporters, followers and friends I haven't met yet, keep me in your prayers as I continue this transformation.

I know that in order to successfully meet all my goals, I have to believe that I am worth it and MAKE TIME to do it. It is so hard with all the things I juggle. It's not that I can't make time, but it's that if I am making time for ME to work out, I feel guilty that I am not using that time to do 1 of 1000 other things on my need-to-do list! I am sure I am not the only one who has struggled with this guilt. So, I am prioritizing and managing my time so I can accomplish things and make time for me. The bottom line is that I will NEVER get it all done, I will NEVER be 100% caught up. So I have to choose...I can be a healthy woman of God with things left on my to-do list or an unhealthy woman of God with things left on my to-do list! I think you know which one I am choosing.
