This is my first official post for A Whole New Me. While I have another blog for my main and general posting (Grown At Home) this one is dedicated to the work I am doing on me.
Spiritually - I need to get up in the morning and have that quiet time with the Lord. This will be through prayer & journal time as well as bible reading and scripture memorization. I am going to be reading through Ephesians as it is something I have wanted to do for some time.
Physically - Well lets face it...I have to lose weight. Now my goal is not to be skinny. I simply want to be healthy and energentic. I have one goal and that is to get under 200 lbs - I will make mini goals as I work to reach this one. I have joined Curves and will be doing that 3x each week and doing Walk Away the Pounds on the other days. I haven't committed to a certain eating plan as that tends to kick me in the rear. I am cutting out the "whites" from my diet - white sugar, white flour, white rice, etc. I will also be more aware of what I am putting in my mouth by writing it all down.
Mentally - Wow that covers a HUGE list of stuff. Mainly I want to spend more "fun" time with my family and have a romantic life again with hubby. I recently discovered one big reason these things never seem to happen is my lack of organization. So I am working to complete my MOTH (Managers Of Their Homes) Schedule. I have tried many times to complete this without much success I am sad to report. However this time my plan is different. I am going to take my schedule on in stages. First I am going to work on my Morning Schedule; that time from wake to 11:59 a.m. After that is going well I will work on adding early afternoon, late afternoon and then my evenings. I am praying that I will have at least up to early afternoon really comfortably routine before I start school this August.
So stay tuned, I will update often on my progress. I hope this will be a place of accoutibility for me.
Blessings.
