Journal Entry 2 : A Better Day

09 Nov 2008 | By Demara | 1:02 pm
You know Lord, yesterday was a MUCH better day, after it got going. Our friends bailed on the whole hiking idea after your rain started to drench the Earth, but Jeff and I, as per a pre-promise, were still able to do our 3 hours on Saturday. As you know, the workout was intense and I’m glad I can help Jeff with that!

Thank-you for helping me lose the 61 pounds so far. I pray that I can help Jeff with his weight loss now too! And I’m so glad that people ask me how I did it. And now I hear they are telling all their friends. And not only that but they’re asking me for all the information.

Thank-you Jesus for my Accountability Partner who had the GI Diet idea in the first place, and that she could tell me about it!

I can’t believe how sore I am today. I definitely worked muscles I forgot I had. I used an eliptical machine, a bike, a track, and a gym. And this all Jeff and I did indoors!! together! And it was the most fun I’ve had in a while. Now, I can’t wait till the weather is nice, so that we can go on that hike.

Please forgive me Jesus for eating that Raspberry White Chocolate Cheesecake yesterday. It was so delicious! But I know now I am paying the price with my health. Please protect me from the Evil One and give us today our "daily bread", those "things that are healthy and especially a necessity to our souls". Amen!

    I’m so happy to hear you had a better day. I’m impressed you even got your workout in after the hike idea didn’t work!

    you are encouraging. There can never be too many success stories to inspire.

    Demara you’re doing so well with your weight loss you’ve inspired me to kick-start my diet (again)! I lost about 30 pounds but I got lazy over winter so I think it’s time to get my trainers on again!

    Keep up the good work - and I would have been tempted by a raspberry white chocolate cheesecake too!

    Good job!

    I am going to have to revert indoors this week too much, I fear, since the weather round my parts promise to be rainy. Bike riding is not so good when you bike gets all rustified.

    Be strong! The holidays are upon us and we all know that means sweets abounding! I find that cutting out certain things and working out more makes up for that piece of pumpkin pie. I don’t know how that would work on your GI diet though.
