Wow..

Wow, I haven't updated in forever. I was hoping to keep up with this daily, but that didn't happen. Only 2 more weeks and schools out for the summer! :) Also started helping Ginger coach Ty's teeball team. Those kids are absolutely adorable!
When it comes to weight loss...I'm proud to say I'm over 1/4th of the way to my goal weight! I've lost 26 pounds so far. I haven't been as motivated lately, and that needs to change because I'm only 9 lbs until my summer goal weight, and I can't give up now!

Weight loss

So, as weird as this is to admit, I've thoroughly been enjoying finally eating healthy and working out everyday! As of yesterday I've lost 11.2 pounds since January 8th. I'm pretty excited, but I know there's a whole lot more to go. I was finally able to run a full mile without stopping a couple weeks ago...I've NEVER been able to do that. Hopefully I'll be able to run 5k before summer!! I've done it a couple times since then, but I've been sticking to the elliptical and the "devil" (Jillian Michaels) DVDs lately. I've noticed my endurance is getting so much better and can finally feel muscles forming (under the flab)! I'm hoping that when I'm having a bad day fitness/diet wise I can come look at this and realize what I'm wanting to accomplish and have so far. I'm in this for the long haul, but I know this is for my health and I want to make a lifelong difference! :)

I just love getting to spend time with my little man. Today he was very sick (104 temp), so I was nurse chelsea again. I had to feed him and hold his water for him because he "was too weak". He just says some of the funniest things. He even told me I had to play zumba on the kinect, so he could watch me and get exercise. I told him I didn't think that's how it worked...He eventually came around and was his chipper, active self. I've now decided it's time to clean my mess of a room from Christmas and start getting it organized for my vanity to get moved in. My dad is the greatest for taking time to make it for me for Christmas. It's beautiful!! I'm also not too thrilled that my zodiac sign has changed from an aries to a pisces...boooo shift in the earth.

The ground is not a place for champions.

My anatomy and Phys 2 professor started our class with the quote "The ground is not a place for champions." This holds true in so many aspects. I've realized that I've never given 100% in a class, and this semester is going to be different. I've also decided, A&P is going to be the death of me. Bought a planner...I've set my mind to staying organized this semester...otherwise, I'll never keep track of my 4 online classes. Hoping to get another 4.0 this semester. :)

My Bible reading and exercising is going great! It's only been a couple days, but I already feel so much better. I'm learning so much I didn't know about the Bible and myself and I'm not even out of Genesis yet! Excited for my study books to come to help me better understand the books of the Bible.

A year for change...

As I grow up, I realize life throws major obstacles for you to face. One thing is always for certain...God is ALWAYS there.
I'm so very blessed and have taken many things for granted in the past. But this year, it's time for change.

This year I want to have a closer walk with God. I've decided that it's time for me to read my bible through. I always start and never get very far. I'm so thankful I have the freedom to own a Bible and worship without being thrown in jail.

I've also decided it's time to get rid of this weight I put on due to my lack of control and a little bit of hypothyroidism thrown in there. I've started working out everyday and watching what I eat.

I also have some decisions to make schoolwise, but I know God will guide me through it.

So, I'm excited for the new year and what it is going to bring...
