2 long weeks

So it has been 2 weeks since I have written and well in that time I've been to Reno and back to visit with my parents who I hadn't seen in 2 1/2 years. It was a short but sweet trip, long enough to love on them but not too long to get upset with each other.

On a weight note, I haven't moved on the scale. But I have picked up on my exercise, I now run a 9 min mile and then start my 45min spinning class at 5am during the week! I really love it and besides wanting lunch at 10am it really makes my day so much better. But I do really wish I could get this last 25lbs off, I know I'm building muscle and I'm healthy. But I just can't wait to get to my goal!!!

Tonight is my 2nd small group. I'm so excited it is so wonderful to be on this journey with other people!

Best Small Group Ever!

Well last night was our 1st Made to Crave meeting and it was awesome. We have 16 ladies in the group, although we were missing 3 last night it was still a wonderful group. We took time to get to know each other and to get real about the things that get in our way, sugar, sweets, unhelpful husbands, fast food, schedules, and ultimately the way we put food before God.
I'm so excited about this study and can't wait to see how God is going to bond this group of ladies together. Because one thing I have learned is that there is strength in numbers, when one is down the rest are here to pick you up.
One of the best parts of our group is that we are all at different points in life, single, married, w/ kids, w/o kids, 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's, been on the weight roller coaster, never dieted before. But most importantly we are women who want to run after a closer relationship with Christ!!
So all I can say is yea God!! We were made for more!
