Eating Healthy

With the loss of my nana and then my grandmother having cancer, my life has changed a bit. I have decided that it's time for us to get healthy around here. My dad has to go for a heart catheritization on Tuesday. Am I nervous? Absolutely! Am I fearful? Yes, I am. I do know that God has a plan for me and he has a plan for my dad. I am going to trust in Him and continue to pray and ask that you, too, will pray for my family.

We've taken things a bit more seriously. I have lost around 25 pounds since I had Emelia. I am trying to get down to my pre-pregnancy weight from before Emma Kate. I am close, but still have about 10 more pounds to go. Jerry and I have been eating vegetables, fruits, salads, lean meats (chicken, pork tenderloin, london broil). We have been trying to go walking at least three days a week and then I have also been running on the elliptical at least three days a week as well.

I wont lie and say that it has been easy because there are times when I want a cookie or chocolate or pizza and we definitely have those things too. I am just learning to eat in moderation and pay close attention to portion sizes.


Let's all be in prayer for a healthy family. We've had a pretty hard year and are ready for some healthy happiness!




Psalm 38:3 - Because of your anger, my whole body is sick; my health is broken because of my sins.

Proverbs 15:30 - A cheerful look brings joy to the heart; good news makes for good health.
