A new beginning on a lifelong journey

Well, it has been awhile since i journalled here. I have been struggling with my journey because i allowed life, health, stress, time management and much more to get in the way. I have always said that the journey is the reward and the journey continues just along different paths at times.

I am learning to recognize and take ownership of the paths i end up on. God has a plan for my life and i am striving to be closer to Him so i can be on the right path.

In the past few months i have regained about 30 lbs. this has been depressing and frustrating. I have been off and on plan SOOOOOO many times. My health issues have flared. Ininjured myself exercising. My asthma got flared up. Benny became senior pastor and i took over womens ministry and music ministry at church... I could come up with many more excuses but they dont matter as much as how im going to allow God to conteol the situations and get back ontrack.

I am working with the doctor to get my asthma under control and keep my kidneys from building new stones. I am working to find a balance of exercise that is healthy for me and fits around the rest of my responsibilities. I am working to set priorities. I am working on a visual oard to help me with goals, priorities and life responsibilities.

Today is a new day. I started my day with a healthy medifast protein shake. Dinner is in the crockpot so i can stay on plan I am using the Take Shape For Life app on my iphone to keep ontrack eating every 3 hours. I am measuring my foods and water so i know where i am! Ignorance is NOT bliss.

I appologize for letting my friends down when i made a committment to help you each on your journey.

It is important to set goals, have a plan and write it down.

Looking forward to a healthy happy future
