Like Millions of people across our planet I made the resolution to loose some weight. My son is four, I think I should stop using him as an excuse. Well, I have been pregnant 2 other times, but I can't use that either. LOL. Here are my stats.
Height: 5' 8
Starting Weight: 172 pounds,
Starting BMI: 26.1 - Overweight.
Weight loss plan: Exercise and reduced portions - Can't Diet
Start Date: January 28th, 2007
Target Date: Whenever it happens - OK June.
Weight Today: 160 pounds (Progress has been made)
Current BMI: 24.3 no longer overweight
Target Weight: 145 pounds
Target BMI: 22. Right smack in the middle of normal
For the month of April, I intend to workout 4 days a week for an hour and 15 minutes a day on the treadmill, and do a workout video 20mins a day twice a week. I hope to loose another 2 - 5 pounds this month. So by June I should be close to my target weight. Please keep me in your prayers. I weighted 158.5 last week, gained a pound and a half.

Daily Trusting
The longer I live and the more I know, the less I understand. Some days I find myself not getting it, not understanding why some things happen. I got a call from a friend today who is expecting her baby tomorrow; her brother-in-law passed away on Sunday as his family waited for him to come home for Easter dinner.
So at a time when they should be expectant and excited they are mourning. He would have turned 40 in May. This same family lost their father last September. A horrible loss in the course of a year.
As I have mentioned earlier I believe doubt and fear arise from not trusting God. I learning to trust God's sovereignty. I am learning to trust Him with the little things and the big things. Trust Him that not being able to have another child is for His glory, trusting Him that my daily doldrums will give Him glory. Trusting Him that one day all this will be over and more importantly I will be with Him in paradise where there will be no more tears, no more pain. No more tears - can't wait

Revelation 21:4
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
