Weight Loss Challenge

So I stepped on the scale today and I had a little victory dance! :) January 1st I was 122 pounds and this morning I weighed in at 118.5. :) I am making healthy choices and working hard at the gym. I FEEL GREAT! I know some of you see that number and think I wish I was that number. The truth of the matter is it is just a number. I am a very short women and I may weigh less now then when I got married but the body is still not like it used to be I am trying to firm up the middle, and tone the legs. I still have lots of baby fat to loose! I put the number on here to help keep me accountable and not to make anyone stumble in jealousy or anger.

Today I challenged myself to run a 5K and beat my time from last year-- SUCCESS! I did it in 27 minutes and 30 some odd seconds. :) WOOT!

Like I mentioned before I am being honest here in my weight and my struggles for the whole world to see!

So what struggles did I have this week? Food! I was with teens on Saturday and they eat anything and everything but I did not fall into temptation eating all the junk. :) YAY! I really feel like the devo I have been using on youversion.com has been helping- Look up the devotional Made to Crave. Helps change your perspective each day! :)

How is your health? Ready for a challenge?

Try the Knot Genie on your kids (or on yourself) – you'll be amazed by the ease of brushing, as well as how it virtually stops breakage and split ends. You've wished for hair brushing standoffs to end. Wish granted." My Review: Thanks to the Knot Genie for sending me the product to conduct my review. I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% mine. I know I have grown so tired of my daughter coming to tears every morning when we did her hair. I was becoming to think she was the most
