Bee's trying to lose a whole person thread....

Good luck! Just wanted to share a really good tip I got from someone when I complained of never wanting to exercise, even though I really needed to. She said figure out something you do every single day, and exercise before you do that. For example, I feed my animals every day when I get home from work, so she said make yourself walk before you're "allowed" to feed the animals. For you, Bee, maybe if you exercised before you read the bible and have your time with God. Just an idea!

Great Idea aggieterpkatie. Here's another twist: my faith teaches me to spend time with God before anything else. Praise and worship both count as God time, so I put on some NewsBoys, or LeCrae, or Third Day music CDs and wear the headphones while I walk. Sometimes I sing right outloud but then if I can sing, I need to pick up the speed. It really gets me going! If you're not into that, www.Sermon.net has many local, national and international sermons. You can at least listen to God's word as you walk.
Good luck!

I started my new routine this morning...awake at 6 am, hit my knees to pray shortly after, Scripture, devotions and song after that. I actually talk to God all day, so my worship and communion with the Lord isn't really contained to a set time~ but I like the morning hours when it's quiet and dark are a peaceful time with just God and I.

Then an hour or so on the book while drinking a nice, cold glass of water. After that routine, I won't have a routine....just moving, grooving, sitting to write on the book as inspiration arrives, etc.

Right now I'm heading out to the mailbox with the old dog. He's good company and he doesn't interrupt my conversations with God.

Beekissed, your mom sounds like my kind of gal!

Enjoy your walk with God!

I did! The sun shown down on my face, God was willing to let my mind run a million miles a minute without concentrating on what He was saying, the dog didn't feel like roaming today and stayed in "heel" position~ though I didn't ask~ and I worked up a sweat. I could feel those long dormant leg and butt muscles working...when I no longer feel them working, I'll step it up a notch or two until I can feel the strain again.

Good morning!!! :bun

Good Morning! Sounds like a wonderful way to start the day!

Went totally off the reservation yesterday and couldn't seem to get enough to eat....hormones in full display! Needed something spicy, something sour, something tangy, something sweet...actually, I needed ALL those things. Or thought I did.

Today I'll do better....

It happens. Know ALL ABOUT those hormones and THEIR needs. lol Dust yourself off, take a nice deep breath, and start again, I KNOW you'll do better.

Keep the faith.

Um, well, my lizard has the same problem from time to time.

I only have one ovary but it works well each month to remind me that it's still here and needs some attention. I get a little...er...edgy...and I crave certain foods for a couple of days.

Anyone else get those same symptoms?

Yep, a "One Ovary" Gal myself. Know exactly what you are going through.

And Lucky me, I'm getting to have the pleasure of learning what a "One Ovary" Gal goes through "Pre Menapause".
