So Fresh and So Clean in 2013

Philippians 4:13 KJV

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
For those who weren't present at our last meeting... I advised publically that I am going to be doing a 60 day blog of my transition into a healthier me. Wikifit last year loss I would say approx 75+ lbs and this year our goal is 100. I myself loss 20+. However, a couple months ago I sustained a medial collateral ligament sprain and have allowed it to discourage me. And began emotional eating and gained some of my weight back. I haven't been allowed any physical activity outside of physical therapy three days a week. However, that is no excuse because I still can be making heathier eating choices. So I am making a choice as your co-leader I intend not just talk any talk but also walk the walk. I want to be accountable. On 1/12/13  I and those members interested will be taking a before pic. Once I reach my goal I will post before/after pic. I have old pics previously I could share... Also,  I will begin logging my meals 1/14/12 and will be sharing my journey with each and every one of you. Setting my 1st five goals- 1 drink plenty water, 2- Eat on side salad plate, 3-Regularly use my on the go blender 4- Track my meals, 5- No meals after 8. By February our goal is to have our buddies established..  My prayer:Hebrews 10:24-25 NIV

And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
