Beginning of week 2

Apr 15, 2015

Hello All,

This is my beginning of week 2! I am so excited with an 8 lb weight loss! I'm sure there are some outside contributing factors to my weight loss, but I am now at 260! Whoohoo!!! I have been doing Zumba these past 2 days and I must say that I am so out of shape! This was a real eye opener for me.  I used to be able to do 2 hours of cardio classes.  However, I am struggling to complete the first 30 minutes.  I keep on pushing myself and telling myself that I will get used to it soon.  The instructors are so energetic! They put a sexy spin on moves along with hip hop basics, and I am unable to keep up! I do just the basic, low impact moves.  I look at the mirror and I look a hot mess!!! But with a pulse monitor, I am burning those calories... an average of 530 an hour! So I am loving this.  Also, I done some light weight lifting, which I am going to do 3 x's a week.  I am sore, but I feel so good!

I know that for some reason week 3 & 4 are my "giving up" weeks.  I don't keep the workout regimen for too long.  I start eating unhealthy.  I just give up.  There is a spiritual stronghold on me that does not want me to lose weight or want me to be happy.  Weight has ALWAYS been a detrimental factor for me.  As i am entering into week 2, I am getting fearful of what is to come.  What obstacles will come in my way? What will the enemy throw at me to prevent my success? However, I am fearfully and wonderfully made.  No weapon formed against me shall not prosper.  And God has not given the spirit of fear but of love, power, and a sound mind.  I will make it past week 3 and 4, and more weeks to come.  Thanks for your support and I ask for your continued support throughout my weight loss journey.
