Day 8

I decided to wait to update again until I had some real progress. Boy do I have some progress!! I have lost 7 pounds in 8 days!! I am so convinced and hooked on this stuff that I have signed up to be a distributor! I am really excited about this oppertunity for myself. I really want to scream from the rooftops how wonderful I am feeling right now! I have more energy than I have had in YEARS! I can not wait to see what the future holds for me!

¹The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

²He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

³He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

⁴Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

⁵Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

⁶Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

Day 2

Day 2 was so much easier than day 1. Chris was home due to snow and did it with me today and I dont know if that made a difference or not. I have decided to become a distributor too! I am really excited! I hope I can do well at it.

I am already seeing results! I weighed this morning and I have already lost 2 pounds!! It is so exciting to see results! It is going to take a while longer to share this blog. Like maybe....50 pounds down.

Ok....so excited...................

The start of a new me? I think so...

So here we go! Day 1: The shakes are rather tasty! Not bad at all! I did however get hungry this morning by like 10 am. I am wondering if I need something to help with the hunger. I talked with my herbalife coach this morning and there is an option for that. I will give it a couple more days and see what happens.

Chris wants so bad to take those stupid before pictures of me. Maybe I will just breakdown and let him. As long as I dont have to look at them. Maybe one day I will want to look at and compare them. I hate looking at my self right now though.

Short update, but maybe I will have more later!

Ready

Something my mom always said concerning my weight loss, "You will do it when you are READY.". So may times over the last 10 years I have said I am so ready. But was I? I never succeeded. I never put into it what I should have. Am I ready now you ask...I am afraid to say I am! I have a weird thinking in my head that if I do everything different from times in the past maybe this time I can do it. Chris asked me last night if he could take some "before" pictures of me. Nope! I have done the before picture thing and failed. Like I said...weird I know!

Something I have not tried in the past is asking God to help me in this process. I don't know why it is something I never thought to do was to ask God to see me through this. I want nothing more than to do this and do it right! Can we really do anything right with our Father?!? I say no! He will see my through!

The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. Psalm 18:2

Shrink Me O Lord

Hello blog...it has been a long time! I dont think I will even tell anyone about this just yet. Maybe eventually I will share.

The purpose of this blog is to track my weight loss. Chris's cousin Tyra is now selling herbalife and has gotten me started on it. Well my product will be here Wednesday hopefully. I am not going to lie...I am scared! I am scarred to fail. I am scarred financially. I am just praying that this is my answer. I hurt all over! My knees and my back are the worst. I am tired ALL the time.

Well here it is...Today, Monday January 31st, my weight is 289. Blech! Heres to shrinking!!
