Week V
It’s been a while since I posted weekly, but I’m doing a lot better. Focusing in a lot more on myself and my health has been great. However, I fell back on the spiritual part which I need to get back to. Even if I touch the Bible and look at just a verse it needs to be included in my life. I noticed that going to church/bible study I was doing things on everybody else’s time or trying to advance myself in a direction where I wasn’t ready or just needed to relax in that moment. I have that now, and I’m so grateful for it. I have had some people reach out to me to see where I’ve been, but I didn’t go in to detail and was very vague because I don’t want to gossip. Especially since they’re still going to church there and that’s their choice if they believe the people and lives they’ve touched are beneficial to their journey. It just hasn’t been mine, and I don’t want to poison said waters for them. As of the beginning of June, I have officially lost 6.6 lbs! I am so proud of myself. Even if I do slip up on a whole day as long as I get it together the next day I should be fine. We’re only human after all. I’ve kept being myself motivated these first couple weeks by reposting healthy posts on Tumblr, watching Chrisitan Guzman, Maxx Chewning and Nikki Blackketter YouTube Videos. Not trying to compare myself physically to them, but just seeing their complete discipline in working out and eating healthy. I pray that these motivations turn into discipline for myself. Going to classes every week day at the gym helps a lot as well right after work. I had a killer session yesterday with my spin class and after weight lifting. I’m starting to feel my stomach sort of get all mushy, which means something’s working and I’m losing weight :D Until next time…
