New Beginnings

I have been away from this blog a looooonnnnng time, as in 4 years.  Everyday I think about trying to lose weight and never get around to doing it.  I have just come across the Trim Healthy Mama lifestyle change (THM) for short.  There is a Facebook page that has tremendous helps, recipes, encouragement by many women who are being successful in their quest for a healthy new life.  Based on Christian principles and sound research for what works well in the body for good nutrition as well as weight loss and then maintaining, this book seems to be just the right book at the right time for me.  I have assembled the items to help me in the cooking of the healthy meals, now I just have to do it.  I haven't forgotten about T-Tapp either.  T-Tapp More is another way to manage the body into a healthy life.  I am 67 years old and if I don't get busy,God may call me home and I will have lost the race(in a manner of speaking). [Don't get me wrong, I know that I have been redeemed, just not obedient in this area of my life.]  God expects us to take care of our bodies as it is the temple for His Holy Spirit which guides us into all truth through God's Word.  Anyway, hoping 2014 is my year to become healthy...overcoming Diabetes, High Cholesterol and other minor issues that will be better without extra weight.  I have read accounts of ladies getting off all their medications.  May I be one of those ladies!!

So here's to you Pearl and Serene....Let's GO!

New Year's Resolution

This is where I will post progress on weight loss. I need to lose about 50 pounds. I may be able to go off my diabetes medication if I accomplish this which would be super. I also may be able to improve a number of other medical concerns by following through. I started out at about 180 roughly 4 months ago and lost 14 pounds and gained back 4 pounds. I want to get the scales moving the other direction again. So here goes!
