Today was not the big rush of changes that I hoped it would be, so I'm going to tweak my entries a bit. Inspired by a friend and beginning tomorrow, I'll begin posting when I get up, when I get dressed, and everything that I eat each day. My hope is that these true confessions will shame me into trying harder. I need to be pushed, not coddled. Keep praying for me and let me know how I can pray for you! Better yet, get a blog so we can keep track of each other!
No water; 5 minutes of exercise (don't laugh--I have to start somewhere); 2 loads of laundry, ran a couple of errands; ate chicken fried chicken at Black-Eyed Pea; read Job 11-12 and 3 chapters of the Corrie ten Boom story and prayed with the girls
My goals for tomorrow are:
House:
finish the laundry (is that really possible?)
Re-Clean the kitchen and dining area (The kids and I have very different definitions of clean.)
Clear off the school table in my bedroom
Clean my bedroom
Food:
Not ready to count points yet, but my goal for tomorrow is to re-think every food choice and reach for something healthy each time I eat and to write down everything that I eat
Cook dinner
Drink water as often as I can
Other:
Job 13-14
Finish Corrie ten Boom book
Pray alone
Pray with kids
Exercise for 5 minutes (I said don't laugh!)
Be completely dressed by noon!
I certainly would have no room laugh at the 5 minutes of exercise...it's so true that you have to start somewhere!! Keep it up, Dayna and don't get discouraged!
ReplyDeleteRemember...
"Tomorrow is fresh, with no mistakes in it."
Five minutes is way better than no minutes :)
ReplyDeleteha..ha...ha.
ReplyDeleteHey, I'm not laughing... that is just me out of breath after doing my own five minutes. :-) Next week maybe we can kick it up to 10, but I'm not ready this week.
Thanks for the encouragement, guys. It really helps.
