The first seven days!

Well in the first seven days I have worked out with my DVD 5 times, finished another level of my pinterest workout :), I've read all my Bible passages even though I missed a day I caught up the next day and I've lost ten pounds since Monday!  Granted some of that initial weight was added by eating a few extra calories before I started the diet, but since my weigh in before I started I've lost 6 pounds.  I figure that number is more realistic :)  I am really enjoying the workouts even though I don't always want to do them I ALWAYS glad I do after.  I'm stronger a lot in my legs.  I'm more concerned with my arms.  They are really weak so I'm going to try to fit in an extra workout with my shake weight.  I'm going to try to do it every other day.  I'm really excited about getting to the 150's soon maybe this week!!! :)  I'm staying on the same work out for another week then I 'm changing next Tuesday to level 2.  It's going to be hard.  I hope y'all are enjoying the reading :)  I'm trying to post as often as I can.

Day One

Good Morning friends!  The morning starts with a weigh in at 173.8.  That is my starting point for my 30 day journey. Here are a few before pictures:

If you eat what you've always eaten...

... You'll weigh what you've always weighed.

I've been the same weight since I weighed on January 1st.  It's not horrible because I'm not gaining but I'm not content to stop at this weight.  I am looking to reshape my life and my body.  For the next 30 days I'm doing three things.  I am cutting out bread.  No tortillas, chips, or rice at Moe's.  No bread or biscuits or breaded things.  I am also doing the 30 day shred for 30 straight days, each level for 10 days. The last thing I'm doing is reading a proverb a day and also one chapter of Acts and read through 1 and 2 Corinthians.  I am not content where I am.  I want to be in better shape. I want my relationship with Jesus to grow.  I want to feel confident in myself and both of those are part of that.  I will be posting my weight in the morning and some before pictures :)  Let's see how 30 days goes!
