This is day 10 of Insanity. I really feel good and horrible at the same time. I feel horrible while I am doing it. I feel good after I finish. I did the plyo again.
This is the time of year that many start worrying about their weight. Lots of goodies to eat and less sunlight to be outside in. I am thankful that I am not in America during this season so that I don't have to constantly be consumed by my weight. We just don't seem to have the temptations here that are there. Part of me misses all the parties and the food that goes with it, but the other part of me is happy to not have them. So today I weighed myself. It has been two months since I have had the wonderful opportunity to step on the scale. I've been walking more and doing aerobics so I thought I would see a difference in the numbers. After two months the scale says I am .4 kg. less than I was two months ago. Notice the small point before the 4. If it was 4, without the point, I would be thrilled. You see, in America I gained 8 kg, so 4 would still only be half. But no, there is that small little dot before the 4. This past year I have learned something about mysel...
I just finished my 47th day! This has been a tough week. Sunday I took too long of a nap so when I went to workout I was just tired. I quit after about 5 minutes because my body just wouldn't do it. Monday wasn't much better. I did the Max Interval Circuit and had to quit 10 minutes early. But I still did a long workout so I am not discouraged by that. Today I decided to go back to the earlier workouts and I did the Pure Cardio and the Cardio Abs. So again, I am not discouraged. Some days you just have to realize that your body is tired. I haven't weighed myself in a while. To upsetting. But I know I am losing inches and I feel pretty good about that. My goal is still the 10 pounds. I repeat that to myself as I am wanting to quit a workout. I have only two weeks left until I finish the 60 days.
Psalm 49:7-8 “No man can by any means redeem his brother. Or give to God a ransom for him. For the redemption of his soul is costly.” It is an amazing thing when someone comes to faith in God. Last night I got to witness my brother in-law give his life to Jesus. His life was redeemed. The ransom for his soul was paid by Jesus long ago, but yesterday he was set free. My brother in-law was in darkness. He knows his life was full of darkness and demonic presence. He has been hearing about Jesus for years and knew that if he ever decided to become a follower that he would do it completely, not half heartedly. He finally saw that he needed Jesus. So yesterday he prayed a beautiful prayer acknowledging his need to get rid of the darkness in his life and knowing he can’t do it on his own. Jesus filled his life. My brother in-law said he felt something leave. It was the darkness. Jesus has filled his life...
