Learning to Cut Back
Sometimes simple is better and this month I'm cutting back.
First up is Lent. This past weekend I rededicated myself to Christ while I was at "the Mount" with my friend in Chesapeake. It's a big deal for me, it's been a long time since I really took the time to develop my relationship with Christ, so I'm really pleased about the step I took on Sunday. And this week Lent begins, starting with Ash Wednesday. Starting Wednesday and for the next 40 days until Easter I'll be giving up some up things that I think distract me or get in my way of growing and being the kind of woman I want to be. So starting Wednesday I'm giving up cursing, Facebook, physical intimacy, yelling and red meats (chicken/fish are okay). I simply feel like with these things out of the way I'll be able to focus on what's more important.
But taking it all the way back to the basics of this blog - when we don't dedicate our time to distractions we are much more open to noticing all the small things that change the direction of our lives on a daily basis. Being home again, maybe by not yelling I'll be able to hear what it is that my parents have to say - maybe I'll have them hear me. A wise friend put me on the idea that what I do speaks 1,000 times more than what I say, and I know that by being what I want to be instead of talking about what I want to be will work much more for me.
Now I'm starting something else that isn't for everybody, and not all people will agree with it - but it's a choice I'm making. Today was my first day of the Master Cleanse liquid detox. I don't feel like typing an explanation of it but I'll be recording a video every night to talk about what I'm experiencing. But the idea is that I'm pushing myself to be the change I want to see. I'm motivating myself by putting my business out there.
So, for all the world to know, I'm posting my stats. I figure, if everyone is watching and wondering how it will turn out, and they can see my progress, then I will be motivated to continue and show them what I can do. This is hard for me, and I don't know all of you that well, so all I ask is that you be supportive in whatever way you would like. Just, please be kind! :) Thanks.
Stats:
Weight on March 1, 2011: 160 lbs.
Weight on March 7, 2011 (after ease in period of eating only fruits/veggies): 157 lbs.
I'll weigh myself again in the morning. But yeah. There it is. Now you all know.
Here goes nothing, wish me luck...
