Day 6 has been great! I feel like I'm really getting the swing of things, and continue to feel so grateful to have had 6 successful days. I thought tonight I'd write about the things I feel have helped me to make it to Day 6 feeling as great as I do, so here goes:...
Healthier eating… healthier me!!
Day 5 – Daniel Fast
Day 5 and still going strong!!!! I'm so excited, and amazed. The hardest part of the fast has been abstaining from all sugar!! For those who know me well, they know the relationship I have had with sugar, and how meaningful that relationship has been to me ......
Day 4 – Daniel Fast
Today was a great great day!! I ended my evening by attending a prayer at church. The 1st week in January is dedicated to prayer at my church, and tonight was a very powerful and moving meeting. I feel like all the desire I felt for a piece of chocholate was...
Day 3 – Daniel Fast
Day 3 Ok... it’s quarter to midnight so I’ve got 15 minutes to write a quick blog about my 3rd day!!! So I’ve heard that day 3 is the hardest as the sugar deprivation kicks in. It was a very full day for me today, and VERY stressful, so I imagined that today was...

Great way to end the year!
Well it's been difficult... AND very challenging... But, the great news is that I've managed to regain control of my health (specifically my eating) over the past few weeks, AND lose 6 pounds. Imagine that!! This is the time of year I would typically throw in what's...
Still Hanging In
Today's date is December 6th, and it really has been quite a battle staying on top of healthy eating. I would say that the struggle has been a difficult one, and unfortunately this month I didn't see any change in my weight since the beginning of November. Am I...
Reluctant response
So.... I am reluctantly writing this response... 🙁 Why you ask.... Well the category this post falls under is Healthier eating healthier me. BUT the sad reality is I have not been eating healthier over the past 2 weeks, and so I am writing this blog entry feeling...
Priorities
So I have officially banned myself from writing any blogs until after Nov 13th. I will be hosting a Woman’s Retreat Nov 13th, and there is still quite a bit of work that I have to do to get ready for this event. At the same time I have a nagging voice in my head...
