James 5:16 - "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed . The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."
O.k. 1 week down on my new 7 week diet. I want remind you that my goal that I have set is for me to weigh 323 by the Monday - 11/29/10 - after Thanksgiving. When I started my war on weight I weighed 380 lbs. since then it has been quite a ride. I lost about ten pounds, then vacation happened and I gained it back. When I came back from vacation I renewed my declaration on my "War on Weight". Now I am refocused and have started a 7 week diet (Curves Diet) that will end just before Thanksgiving week. 1 week is down and God has richly blessed my efforts. I lost 11 lbs!! I now weigh 366.6 lbs. This is the lowest I have been in a long time! PRAISE GOD!
I was not perfect on the diet and I did not exercise. Last week I consumed an average of 1200 calories a day, this week the diet adds 400 calories, so the weight loss will slow down a bit, but I will add exercise this week. In order for me to reach my Thanksgiving goal I need to lose an average of about 7.5 lbs. a week. I am very excited about this passed week, but I must not lose focus. I have recently talked face to face some friends that are keeping up with this war and I did not know. It amazes me what God will use to bless people, I serve a wonderful God!! He has been my strength this past week and I am anticipating another good week. If you find yourself stuck in a rut of any kind declare war on it and see what God will do!
