GOOD FOR THE SOUL!

Even if I had wanted to jump off the wagon today, my body had NO intention of letting me.  Every move I made, every step I took my body reminded me that yesterday I recommitted myself to my weight loss journey in a big way.

My muscles are paying me back for trying to drag them 980 feet up a mountain!  I am SO sore, so, so, so sore!

But you know what, I am loving every minute of it!

I love knowing that today my discomfort is not from overeating, or swelling, or laziness, or disappointment.  Instead my discomfort is from a workout that pushed my muscles to the edge as I re-commited myself to achieving my goals...

...AND IT FEELS GOOD...REALLY GOOD!

Today I tracked all of my food!

Today I got my body moving!

Today I made the switch from Weight Watchers to Spark People.  (If you are on Spark People, I would love to add you as a Spark Friend.  My Spark Name is ConnieLeeHarris).

Today I also refueled myself spiritually, counted my blessings & gave thanks for them, and spent some fun, quality time with my family.

It was a good day.  A really good day.

Re-commitment is good for the soul!

  4. Hi Connie, I am newer to your blog.  I couldn't even tell you how I originally found it....but you and I have both recommitted ourselves to our own weight loss journeys recently.  I found your mountain story very inspiring.  I am starting at 334 and feel like it is definitely hard to break old habits and physically get this body moving.  I never heard of SparkPeople before, but I just signed up.  If you want to have the encouragement and accountability from someone who is where you are, with the same goals, let me know.  I am on SparkPeople as Heather_Nash.  Or you could email me at hnash10@gmail.com.

  5. I feel ya lady!!! I am sore and wiped out from all of the walking (and stroller pushing) I did over the weekend. I am on sparkpeople...but rarely go on. I'll look for you though...maybe this will help me to track my food better.
