Some Sort of Record!

I am pleased to report that as of 12:00pm today, I have officially worked out five days in a row!!! Granted, there are some health nuts out there that may not see the amazingness (is that a word?) of this accomplishment, but I don't care. Haha. Even last year when I was making my first attempt at removing some baby weight, I don't think I hit the gym that many days in a row. I haven't had a coke since June 2nd....but here's the best part: I haven't wanted a coke in about the same amount of time! I'm enjoying the time in the gym, I'm enjoying the extra energy, I'm enjoying the thought that I'm getting healthier (to hopefully be around for a looong time), I'm enjoying the privilege of honoring God with my body. I have a couple of goals for this whole "thing". One is of course to lose weight, another is to get healthier for the next possible pregnancy (not yet), but my main goal is my testimony. You know how when people lose a lot of weight and/or reshape their body from lifting weights & a healthy diet, others usually ask "How did you do it?" I want to be able to proudly and boldly say that the only way I could do it was through Jesus. He has already been working on me to change my desires and to reshape the way I think about food and exercise, and every day I pray that He will continue to work in me and through me. Have a great day!!!
