Jump Back In - Progress Report #1

It's been a week since I decided to
JUMP BACK INTO LIFE.
I'm refocused and dedicated to enjoying the beautiful
life I have been given.

I'm going to give myself these periodic progress reports...
in the hopes
that I will stay on track
and that if I don't...
there will be those who will give me the confidence I need to keep going.

Fitness Report:
I have officially exercised 6 out of the 7 days.
I have burned 2,187 calories.
My exercises of choice are ZUMBA, Jillian Michael's 30 day Shred, Volleyball and Yoga.
(Zumba is my new addiction...love, love, love it!)

Diet Report:
I began with joining a free online program called
MyFitnessPal.
I also have it as an app on my phone and it is easy to log-in as soon as I eat and log my calories.
I said how many pounds a week I wanted to lose and for how many weeks and it calculated the amount of calories I can eat daily.
So far I have stuck to my calories.
I like it because I don't have to deprive myself of the foods I like. 
I've always been good at moderation...
but don't ask me to give up chocolate because it just won't happen.

Emotional Report:
I'm Happy.
I have JOY!
I'm managing my feelings.
I have the energy again to DO the things I used to do that gave me so much joy and happiness.

Spiritual Report:
I've always been a little TOO independent for my own good.
I don't always think that I need to ask
GOD
for the things I need...
because I've never felt worthy enough to ask.
I'm working on this one!

Tomorrow I weigh in.
I'm excited to see progress...
but I'm more excited that I'm at least giving it ALL a try!
