Determined

Oh my goodness the things the last two weeks have held.  The enemy has hit me every which way you could imagine.  He tried to attack my health, my finances, my mind, my relationships, but guess what?  I'm still standing.  Not only am I still standing, but I am more determined than ever to continue on this path I have started and I have a solid resolve to encourage you all along the way. 

My weight loss has been painfully slow, but I haven't gained back what I lost. I bought some special foods today in an attempt to help me hit this monster hard.  Losing weight is just not easy for me, does anyone else have this struggle?  I have regained ground on the health issues and the weather is clearing so I can get my butt moving again!  I'm trying to motivate myself to start Zumba again.  I have not and will not give up.

 I have had a couple of spending mishaps (Nina you are really going to have to hold me accountable in this area).  This would include the very unnecessary ring tone I purchased (on the upside, it is a positive one).  I also purchased a couple of upgrades to apps, a book for the Bible study I am beginning tomorrow, and a devotional that is in line with it.  The apps have been awesome in giving me the templates I have been using to encourage others.  None of these things cost much, probably under $10 for all of it so it hasn't been out of control.  I remember a time of eating out and buying multiple songs on iTunes daily, so I am making progress. But um yeah, got a ways to go!

How are you guys doing on the changes you want to make?  Are you following through?  Is there anything I can do do lift you up along the way?  Is there any area I could write on that would help, any areas I can post on that will aid your journey?  I need you to tell me how I can encourage you to keep going. If you don't want to write it below, please send me a private message. I look forward to hearing from you. keep in mind, we are in this TOGETHER!  I am thankful and blessed to be here with each of you.
