So... the good news is I'm down another 1.6 pounds this morning making my total weight loss 17 pounds! I worked on some goals this morning and it looks like this should be about an 18 month journey if I meet my goals each month. I tried to stay realistic and the more I lost my goals got much smaller. If I do make goal, ok wait, when I do make goal I will be smaller than I even was in high school. That just seems crazy (read impossible) to me!
More good news? I managed to get in a couple of walks this week. Nothing terribly adventurous but the dogs were excited to get to go. I'm working up to walking four days a week, I don't mind the walking it's the getting up early to get it in that is the problem ;)
Food wise, I managed to stay under goal all week. Even threw in a lunch date with one of my best friends, a girl's night, emotional eating that seemed to overcome me around Sunday and a all day date with Devin.
I'm entering a season of what seems like the unknown. Everything I've been praying about is here all at once. I'm facing a time of uncertainty and loss (in many ways), and I don't handle that well. A time of letting go, figuring out my place and what God desires for my family. These are the kinds of things that just send me straight to the junk, when obviously they should send me straight to Him. I know that God will use this time to strengthen me in all areas of my walk with Him, if I let Him and I plan to, but that doesn't mean I feel I'm ready for it yet.
