I'm holding steady at 179.7 for six days straight! I'm telling myself "your body is in shock, don't worry, it will kick in and start burning fat, don't lose site of your goal".
Today I am on vacation for a week. We are leaving to go to Atlanta and Chattanooga for a few days. I'm excited to see my sister, niece and my daughter and granddaughter will be coming along as well.
Food: For dinner tonight, it will be just about the time we land so I'm packing it on the plane. I'm just taking chicken and veggies as we can't have salad dressing but I should be fine with that since I normally just eat salad for dinner. I find my dinners have been really filling so I lowered the amount I eat. I don't want to go to bed at night with that stuffed feeling.
This morning before I go I'm going to look up restaurants around the coca-cola museum to see where we are eating and check out the menu. I'll basically be eating salad the whole time. Also, I will go do a little grocery shopping in Chatt so we can 1. save money and 2. eat better. I'll cook something fun for everyone on Saturday Night. Cassie is going to cook on Thursday night and make me spiral zucchini noodles! I'm excited for that.
It was great to chat with Molly yesterday and encourage each other with our diets and lifestyle. My toe color looks great too!
I'm really excited for this little trip - I hope I can share my faith and food choices with my family in a positive loving way.
Yesterday in out marriage teaching - I really had a revelation about how I treat others. The teacher was saying if someone treats his child well, he will have utmost respect for them, but if someone is mean to his child then it makes his blood boil the thought of that person. This is how God is, he notices when we treat our spouses well. My husband is a son of God and God doesn't like it when I'm mean, same goes for every human I'm in contact with. Ouch! I've thought of that before, but I've never really thought of it before, like wow. I have so much to learn and so many ways to grow in and my life is already 1/2 over. I think the 2nd half is going to be more wonderful than anything I've ever imagined. Kelly was very encouraging to me and I appreciate her sharing with me. She said that I have so much potential.
My prayers today include my family and loved ones, my niece Justina who's father passed away yesterday, and all of the people affected by the horrible tragedy in Las Vegas. Speaking of the man who wreaked havoc on the lives of innocent people - he had a family too and I know they are hurting terribly. I would ask God to have much compassion on us and them.
