Today's eats: green smoothies, salmon and sweet potato, a new batch of chili with a few Ritz crackers! one banana
Today's workout: Muscle B . increased some weights, increased some reps, some weights and reps stayed the same. Overall a great workout.
Today's attitude: Good. I am focused and excited about my goal. I have motivation. I have inspiration. I have determination.
Today's gratitude: I am so blessed and grateful for my Church family. I had several people come up to me at church tonight inquiring as to how I am doing and my husband as well. Indicating prayers are still being sent on our behalf. I am blessed! I even had one "elder" of the church sit next to me. She was a great encouragement to me. At the end of service she told me she felt God had great things in store for me this year. I AGREE! I told her, I am expecting it!
Today's thoughts: After what I read and posted yesterday, I am thinking differently about my goals. For a long time I think I struggled with the idea that getting "ripped" was a vain thing. But if I look at it differently...if I change my perspective...I can now think of it as showing others the way and living up to my potential will not just help me, but help others...for surely if I can do it...so can you! Does this put "extra" pressure on myself? Not if I keep my eyes on the goal. If I keep living in the truth of who I am and rest in my calling, then I can be at peace and can live empowered, determined, courageous and what I do will not only be beneficial to me, but to any who "read" my story!
Today's pic: a work in progress, one day at a time.

ReplyDeleteMelinda, thank you so much! It has taken me a long ways to get to where I am. Even after such a tough year, which I will share with you all here.
ReplyDeleteEven just writing these posts, it seems to take me forever to get the words to flow. I actually pray for God to direct my words. And He always does. You just never know who they might be for.
Be blessed!
