So I have decided to attack this weight loss effort with all the available means I have- Spiritual, physical and emotional.

If you happen to read this blog post, you can pray that I will be able to persevere in these efforts!  I usually have my own motivation last for six weeks, maybe even two months.  But then, my resolve dwindles and I get into old habits. I realize that some may not think that praying about losing weight is worthy of God's attention, but I do. I believe that God cares about our every concern- including our health. I believe he counts the hair on our heads! So I plan on relying on HIM to help me to persevere.

Also, I decided to receive a few sessions of acupuncture and the first one was today. I do have some other health problems that make losing weight more challenging. So my hope is to receive some help with my overall health/weight loss with this additional natural treatment.

Finally, I am exercising.  I can honestly say I don't remember the last time I have exercised. Perhaps two years ago???!!! So far I have exercises 4 times since last Tuesday. Pretty good, eh?  I feel great walking on the treadmill. I don't like walking outdoors as much, but it certainly challenges me more. I enjoyed being outside with the butterflies and the view of the nearby river, but it doesn't feel natural to me.  My husband calls me a 'Citygirl' and I suppose that is totally true!

So, so far so good. Feeling good but insecure. I have failed at this so many times in the past.  I am full of optimism and trust that with our Lord's help I can be healthy! 

Omnia in bonum
