Weight History
1 to 5 of 5
31 August 2014
Got on the scale today....and realized I am now down to 145 pounds...Have not been this low in years...a few pounds left to reach my original goal..When I get there I will create a new goal and continue to do so in 10 pound increments...Lots of digestive/stomach/intestinal problems over the summer...acid reflux, gas, etc..I have realized I am allergic to many foods and am now working with a Naturopath doctor to weed those items out ( dairy, sugar, wheat, spicy foods, etc.) and only eat things that optimize healthy nutrients for my body...If anyone has these sorts of stomach/digestive problems..start paying attention to the foods that set you off...I also started taking digestive/food enzymes and it has dramatically helped the problems.. have also done a lot of spiritual counseling which has helped me to unload old emotional baggage, negative thoughts and beliefs about myself and it has taught me to nurture myself, and put myself first..and NOT last in situations..GOD is good...LIFE is good...

Losing 1.0 kg a Week

Continuing to work..scratch that...DEVOTE some personal time...to myself...Decided to spend the money to go to a personal trainer at his home gym three days a week..As a support person, accountability partner and most importantly someone who can keep me focused and organized about this process...I argued inside myself about spending the $..but felt God say...YOU are WORTH SPENDING MONEY ON!...Interestingly, an hour after I made the decision to move forward on it..Money instantly showed up that paid for a whole month of using a personal trainer..(COOL GOD story and a GREAT GOD lesson for me.)Started Monday with a free consultation. Jim is awesome..We went over my history and my objectives..One thing he asked me to trust him on is to eat more calories..and to not swing from cleanses to starving diets to serious deprivation of things I enjoy..He said that you can never succeed long term doing that...He showed me the site www.health-calc.com and taught me about energy expenditure and calories, etc..VERY informative and was an AHA moment..Changed my whole outlook on food and what I was eating and realizing the importance of physical activities of some kind...Started walking with a friend yesterday..30 minutes a day and will move up slowly..Return to the gym with my trainer tomorrow..Preparing healthy but yummy foods ahead of time and having fun with it all..This seems to make a big difference for me..Weighed today..lost somewhere between 2.5 to 3 pounds...

Decluttering of my home is going slowly but it is moving forward...Have thrown out several bags of old things, made several donation boxes, another group of items getting ready to go into a garage sale..Other items I started listing on Ebay yesterday and some items are being packed in boxes for my kids..I totally see the prophetic picture of my house being a picture of myself...The house is way too full of too many things....some loved and some not so loved..some items totally necessary at one point in my life or during different seasons but time to let go of now..Then there are the excesses and different passing hobbies and interests...What an interesting symbolic picture of ME. When I am overly busy and stressed out my home gets messier, fuller and chaotic..an easy guage to measure and follow what is going on with me emotionally and physically....so graphic and undeniable...So I figure if God and I take one room at a time...one pound at a time...and declutter, sell off, donate unneeded things it is giving me a physical picture of myself removing things from my mind and body that are no longer needed ...This would obviously include unneeded weight..any obstacles blocking the "new" from coming forth..I've learned over the years if I want my life to change in some way, then I have to clear a space to allow that change to happen...That may be a clearing of things, people, thoughts, old patterns, weight and foods that don't make me feel good, etc...So onward I go with God by my side to lighten the load and uncover the newest adventure "weighting" on the other side...May we all be encouraged to find our greatest selves knowing that God LOVES us and desires our GREATEST GOOD!

I feel very motivated to spend some time on myself!!! It's time to focus on my own well being, feeling better, treating myself better. I am starting this when my husband has left town for 6 to 8 weeks so that I am not distracted. I have thrown out processed foods and sugary items, etc. and gone to the grocery store to buy the ingredients for my soup. I measured it out...and it is approximately 100 calories a cup...with carrots, tomatoes, collard greens, cilantro, onions, chicken broth, garlic and ground Italian turkey. I also bought steamed shrimp and boiled some skinless chicken thighs..I bagged it all up with calories marked on the outside..I have learned that I do better having small snack bags throughout the day instead of large meals..I also have bought water bottles and diet peach tea..My body is extremely sensitive to foods (allergic to many). I am concentrating on getting wheat, sugar and dairy products out of my diet for awhile.. I am co-partnering with GOD...on this adventure to my true self..I am also cleaning the clutter out of my house at the same time as a prophetic picture.
