New Directions

A few days ago, I stumbled onto a blog....it has changed my life. For the better. This blog post is what got me really going. I actually went to the blog looking for a post about fasting, but didn't see it. What I did see was a woman sharing her faith and her heart very honestly and openly. I saw that she had written an ebook  about her struggle with weight loss. After reading the sample pages on amazon.com and seeing it was on sale for only 2.99, I purchased it for my kindle fire. It was wirelessly delivered to mine AND my daughter's....she read the book before I had the chance to.
It is about juice fasting and how the Lord used her illness to draw her close to him, especially during her fast, which she did with 3 of her older daughters. We are getting ready to try a 30 day juice fast, now too. We are starting tomorrow. DD1 [for 2 weeks until she goes back to college], DD2, and I.
We have already started doing Beach Body's Turbo Fire apx. 1 week ago. We took our measurements and weighed ourselves before we started working out so we have our starting points.  I am going to try to keep our challenges and progress logged here as we go.
I highly recommend, just as Cherly Long from Treasures From a Shoebox that you watch the movie "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead." I'm warning you just like she warns:there are a couple of scenes that are going to have to be your discretion. One of  Joe in his underwear and a bikini scene. And some evolutionary ideas.
Please consider watching it as you ring in the new year and WATCH OUT, you might want to start juicing yourself.
