Ummm.....Weigh in Wednesday??

Soooo....Ya didn't get this posted even close to Wednesday:)

 

I have to say thought that my weigh in results were good!

 

Let me break it all down a little for you.

Monday of last week i did a smoothie detox.

It was suppose to be a three day detox but after one day i was so sick that I couldn't function.

Detoxing me? Maybe....Combo of stuff just making me gassy, bloated and sick? Probably...

When I say gassy and bloated i mean I felt more inflated that the Hindenburg Blimp!
I literally felt like my insides may explode!! 

So I made an executive decision and decided one day was enough:)

I may still do the breakfast smoothie since that one didn't make me sick.

The other two are a NO!!

 

So Tuesday I had a really good day then with my eating.

I got a good water intake too!

Wednesday came and it was time to weigh in.

Now this last week in Bible study was focusing more on having peace about the way I feel

and not focusing on the scale.

I really wanted to weigh in though since i had such a good week so far.

I stepped up on the scale.......202!

That was a total of 2 1/2 lbs lost!!
Totally excited!!

 

So I carried on and had a great rest of the week.

 

Yesterday at church the sermon was about fasting.

Now when most think of fasting they think solely about not eating.

It has more to do with it than that.

I suggest you listen to Sundays message from Grace.
Here is the link...

Its not up just yet, but check in a day or so and see.

 

I have decided to do a manna challenge/fast.

Basically I will be eating "Manna" like the Israelites' ate.

Only mine is breakfast and lunch for only a week.

My "manna" will consist of one of these four things...plain brown rice, plain special k cereal (kinda like rice crispies), oatmeal (plain) or plain bread. No sugar, spreads or add-ons!

It basically suppose to be bland to remind me to be thankful, and to empty me of myself and my selfish cravings, but its also a fast for me.

He talked about crying out to God and asking him "Why God do I crave being filled with this cookie more than I crave being filled with you?"

I am fasting from coffee this week and my breakfast snacks and lunch. I will only be having

"Manna" for breakfast and lunch and then a dinner with my family.

I will be using this fast to intercede for my family in places where prayer is desperately needed.

I would greatly appreciate any prayers sent our way.

 

So that is my last week in recaps....

See ya in two days! HA!!
