And The Beat Goes On!

Before I go on with my weight issues, I just want to say how heart broken I am for all the people so affected by Hurricane Sandy, especially those in Staten Island.  I grew up in Staten Island, went to college there and although I now live in New Jersey it will always be my home and hold a very special place in my heart.  I am praying that God will strengthen all of them to persevere through this and to comfort the hearts and minds of everyone whose lives were literally devastated by death of family or total loss of property.  This too will pass and I know we will all come out stronger in the end if we just lean on God through this very difficult time.

So I weighed myself today and my streak CONTINUES!!! I lost 1.6 pounds (.73 Kg) this week.  That is 3 weeks of losses and I could not be happier.  My current weight is the lowest that I have ANY recollection of, ever! I am really excited that I feel like I am propelling myself to my final goals..I have always had great workouts but the only changes that have taken place in recent weeks is that I have added Boot Camp to work out.  Essentially is is a super high cardio/weight training class that is totally a KILLER!!! I thank God when I finish it every week...In addition to that I am really focusing on my protein intake.  The doctors had said that is super important because by focusing on the protein, my body will burn the fat literally off of my body and It appears that is exactly what is happening! Anyway I have 7 weeks until I see my family in Florida and I am confident that I will hit my goal of losing 20 pounds by then! Thanks for reading!
