Another day of my Journey

Thank God! I am over the first phase of the 17th day diet and I must say it was very hard in the beginning but I took it this time with a different approach.
As I said before I tried so many times in the past to diet but failed every time, but this time I took it spiritually. I was listening to a radio program and I can't remember the name of the author or the book but she said a few things that made me finally realised that it is okay to ask God for help for my weight loss goals, she also said that it is impossible to be overcome spiritually if we can't overcome naturally also and that got me into a new mode.
I prayed and asked for will power and strength to succeed this time and I would pray over every meal and ask the Lord to help me to keep this new life style change, and I have to say that it worked and I am finally able to overcome this horrible eating habits of the past.
I lost 13lbs in the 1st 17 days and I am ecstatic. I will share some of the recipes form the 17 days diet with you in the recipe corner. If I can do it with God's help then you can too.
I am now on the 2nd phase of the 17 day diet and I am loving the way it is working.

A new day and a new life style change

I have started my new life style change and to aid me, I have researched and started the 17th day diet. I am so excited because this time I took it a little different. I incorporated my faith into my weight loss. I have committed my weight loss goal to the Lord and I prayed about it, I asked for strength and willpower and this time, I know it is going to work.
I started 17 days ago and I lost 13 pounds, maybe more because I haven't weighted in 3 days, but at day 13, I had loss 13lbs. I have never lost this much weight in my life at once.Did I say I am estactic? I will share my journey with you. Hip Hip Hooray!

Changes Changes

There has been so many changes in my life. Too many to mention. I was outside the loop for a while. I can't complain, it has been a great journey with many new experiences.
I have to prioritize my time to be able to continue blogging because I really missed blogging.
My husband and I have agreed that I go back to work so I am now a Working at Home and Out of the Home Mom:)

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone! I hope that this new year brings you all the great blessings that you wish for yourself and most of all your wishes granted for your weight loss goals. I know many of us have made New Year Resolutions to drop a few sizes. I hope together we can pick up where we left off last year and this time, be successful for once and for all.
Get ready for a year full of fun and challenges but us reaching our goals in the end.I Can't promise it will be easy but "where there is a will, there is a way".
I have tried and failed umpteen times with my weight loss success but I am not about to give up. I was knocked down but not knocked out. If you were like me we have to get up and fight and we will win this time.

Tips that are helping me

I am one those that are always hungry. Does that sound familiar? Yes! this had been my dilemma. I have been praying for a while to over come this urge to eat and finally I got an answer to my prayer.
Soup! This idea came to me suddenly therefore I began making soups. I made all kinds of peas soup for example, today, I did yellow peas soup, and it fills me up and gives me that content feelings, so I am not craving food. Maybe it is the peas that has so much protein that it keep me full longer. I will give you my recipe soon. This really works!
