Today was a good day. I weighed in this morning at 190.6 and since the first of June, I have lost 6.2 lbs(2 weeks). A slow but steady start. Now that I have begun exercising, I hope that number will increase slightly. I am learning to eat new things and explore new ways to make food. It is actually kind of fun.
Today's bible study was on fasting and how to correctly fast. Really, it is more about seeking God and His will in your life. I have never fasted, but hope to one day. I understand that you can really see God if you do it properly and with the correct mind set. I know that I have many things or strongholds that I need to let go of and fasting would be a great way to see how God would have me to handle that.
I was able to walk today. I did not run because today is an off day, but I want to keep moving everyday and did not want to give my legs a chance to hurt tomorrow. I was so proud of myself. I completed 3 miles walking. I intended to stop at 30 minutes, but I was so enjoying my music on my player that I just kept walking!!!
Looking forward to tomorrow to see what great things my be coming my way by seeking God's will for my life.
Talk to you soon.

Just know that I am here for you - to applaud you on your accomplishments but also to "pick you up" when you start to fall down - notice, I say start...we're not going to let you fall!! Excited to follow your journey! /dss
