193 that is my lowest weight since starting my new lifestyle May 07
I stepped back from the bread this week and look at the great # I was rewarded with.
I give all glory to God - without His strength and determination I would not be at 193
Redo your master bedroom.
You gotta lift and move furniture out of the room so you can start with a clear space - lets call this strenght training
Bending, stooping and reaching to tape off all the walls and ceilings (don’t want any extra paint where it’s not needed) - lets call this yoga
up and down strokes with the paint brush combined with the rolling motion of the roller, can’t forget the up and down of the ladder - we will call this cardio
now it’s time to lift and move all the furniture back in including any new furniture - finish up with more strength training
In the end you have a great workout (sore muscles) and a beautiful room.
Was I fat in this pic or what?
My SIL wanted me to find pics of my dad for her for something she is making my brother and in my find I came accross this picture and thought to myself
The bad thing about this picture is that at that time I thought I looked good and I don’t think I felt fat or even looked fat to myself.
Looking back and now what a diference your mind thinks.
Heres a link to the Mexican Casserole dish from Mondays post - Hope you enjoy as much as we did
I have learned a few things this week and the biggest lesson is bread is not my friend. I think that this could be my reason for the upage on the scale this week. I had bread 5 days in a row and even though it’s whole wheat doesn’t mean my body will respond to it.
Ummmmm looks so good - I can’t wait.
A Mexican casserole recipe I found somewhere on the ineternet
My new favorite breakfast could be a sweet treat.
The other morning I had oatmeal for breakfast - not any ole oatmeal this was gooooood oatmeal.
Oatmeal made with water then I added a tablespoon of fine chop walnuts and 1/2 of a 1/2 of unsweetended chocolate square (shaved) stirred it all together and WOW! It tasted just like a chocolate walnut cookie.
If breakfast was always like this I think more people would eat it.
I have come along way in this journey.
If you read yesturdays post you know that I weighed in .6 less than I did at my lowest last year before the back to back deaths in my family sent me arye.
I have surpassed that 194.6 and weighed in at 194
I made a promise that once I got back to 194.6 or lower I would color my hair which is something I had been wanting to do so this evening I will be getting my hair colored with a burgundy highlight.
This lifestyle takes alot of hard work and dedication everyday as it is not something you can do for a little while and then forget about this is a lifestyle change which means for the rest of my life and weather that be one day, one week or 100 years I plan on working and dedicating myself to the end.
May we all have a bless filled day - God is good!
This morning was a true blessing through the scale and all glory be to God for He is my strength and determination.
I have reached the 1/2 way point of my challenge 9 weeks down and 9 more weeks to go.
I continue to work hard at it everyday and I thank you for your continued cheers for me.
