I've set a goal to lose at least a pound a week from now until Christmas (which is 20 weeks away)... so I looked for some Words of encouragement to help me along the way.

Psalm 107:9: "For He has satisfied the thirsty soul, and the hungry soul He has filled with what is good."

Isaiah 40:31: "Those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary."

Romans 14:17: "...for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit."

2 Corinthians 5:17: "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new
creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come."

Philippians 1:6: "For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus."

Hebrews 12:11: "All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness."

3 John 1:2: "Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers."

Weekends are not for dieting

however... Monday has arrived, and it's time to buckle down and experience mind over matter.

Here we gooooooooooo! Thank you Jesus for this beautiful new day!! I will choose to rejoice and be glad in it.

Today, I'm going to try to be more conscious of drinking lots of water.

Since I haven't been doing anything but cardio at the gym the past week or so, today I'm going to add the strength training part of my workout back in.

"Not that I speak in regard to need, for
I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content:
