Monday Motions Update - on Friday!

Sorry I didn't post earlier this week; September and October are busy, busy months for me!  I was not able to exercise like I wanted to, or had planned to, but was still pleased to find that I had lost 1.2 pounds.  Yay!  Slowly but surely, I am inching towards that ten pound loss mark.  I just wasn't expecting to have to fight very ever inch of it!

We are going through some financial distress right now.  Jonathan gave his notice at LifeWay to spend more time working from home on both his ministry (Jonathan David Ministries, which we are exploring the world of non-profits later this winter), as well as our nanny agency.  It's a big jump though not to have two regular paychecks coming in, and I am struggling with trusting God in the transition.  In light of some tight times ahead, I am not able to keep doing Weight Watchers, and my membership expires tomorrow.  I'm a bit worried about not having that, but have already updated my account on www.fitday.com so I can continuing tracking my food and exercise.  I've also not been handling the stress at all and chocolate-binged last night very well.  Also, I've not been diligent with my spiritual walk this week either... and yes, there is always a huge connection!  So it's a work in progress, as always.  I continue to remind myself that this is a marathon, not a sprint.

  1. I'm sorry to hear that this is a stressful time for you. I know that when my anxieties pile up, it always adversely affects my diet/exercise. Hang in there. I KNOW that you can do this on your own; you have all the tools you need. Plus you are never completely alone--I'm right there with you!
