Weigh-in Report (do you know how hard this is?)

Starting Weight: 168lbs  (Darn Vacation for 2 weeks killed me)
Current Weight: 166lbs
Weight Loss: -2lbs (Now that is the right directions. Slow and steady wins the race...Right?)
Body Fat: 38.4% (I will only be reporting this  monthly and yes I actually MEANT to write a 38.4% and         yes I get just how much that is...SHEESH!!!)

Changes I've noticed...

Physical: Well I don't look any different but I feel so much better. Eating healthy is amazing. Even just cutting out Active Carbs after 3pm is making a huge difference. I have been EXTREMELY SORE this week and I am looking forward to the worst of that being over!!! I love how lifting weights makes me feel

Mental: What can I say, Mental game is everything. I have felt really energized and invigorated this week. Anybody can do something for a week right. I have to prove to myself that I can do it until I reach my goal.

Spiritual: I feel amazing. I KNOW that I am suppose to be doing this. I KNOW that I need to get my health back so I can fulfill my calling as a wife, mother and a SERVANT of God. HE has BIG PLANS for me. (My fitness testimony in a nutshell)

There you have it. Week one down.
