Progress After a Setback = Happy Sarah!

Last week I hit a bit of a bump in the road... If you remember from the last posting, I was up 2.6 pounds from the previous week. It seems as though I was getting into a bit of some bad habits, and it really woke me up to the fact that we all have to make conscious decisions about what we put into our bodies, if we strive for health and wellness. So, back to the proverbial drawing board: eating better, more proteins, etc., and I am back on track.


Weight: 356.8 (down 1.6 pounds from last week's indiscretion.) 
BMI: 63.1 (down .1 from last week)




So, we are back on the right track here, and the best part is, over the entire scope of this journey so far, what I have gained during last week will soon be all but a memory, and certainly, isn't anything, compared to where I started from. In ANY difficult journey, we must remember to look at our obstacles and setbacks with the eyes of the long-term. Don't dwell on a mistake; the place you are now is better than the place you were six months ago. 


Be encouraged this week, and if you're on a weight-loss journey yourself, or any other journey, for that matter, never EVER give up. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." –Philippians 4:13


Much love,
Sarah
