I got on the scale today and the good news is I didn't gain any weight over the holidays. The bad news is that I didn't lose any either. Oh well. But it is good news that I didn't gain.

I worked out yesterday for about 1.5 hrs. BodyCombat then BodyPump. I got there late to the first class and had to leave early for the second one. It felt good to be working out. I missed it while I was at mom's during my whole "heater is out at the house" problem. Today I went to the gym on my usual day "off" b/c I missed going monday and tuesday. I did some weights on my quads, inner and outer thighs and hamstrings. Then I did some ab work. Finally I got on the treadmill and RAN FOR 20 MINUTES! WooHoo. I struggled the last 2 minutes but finished. I speed walked the other 20 minutes. Gosh...I know I'll be sore.

On the way home yesterday from the gym, I heard Casting Crown's "Voice of Truth" and it struck a cord with me. My weight loss journey feels like an impossible task to fulfill. Everyday I feel like I'm going to fail. Everyday I feel like Satan is trying to pull me down at every opportunity. Ah, but the voice of truth tells me a different story. He tells me I will succeed! This song is now my anthem :)

Please go online and search Casting Crowns lyrics and read the Voice of Truth lyrics. Awesome!
