Happy Friday everyone! Today is going to be a beautiful 94 degrees in the Seattle area. I'm determined to leave work by 4:30 to enjoy it. After today I only have three more days and I'm very proud to have come so far.
While driving this morning it occurred to me that I made this goal as a gift to my body, which God provided me. My life in this body is the most precious gift the Lord gives us; therefore, I will complete my final days and break my fast slowly as a small repayment to him. This may seem like a simple idea but has given me all the strength I need to avoid temptation until OJ day on Tueday. I can do this and I will.
I'm feeling pretty good. No goopy eyes this morning and my forehead is finally looking better. Someone at work told me my face looks thinner today. I think my hard work is paying off all over the place.
I wish everyone has a productive fast today. Hang in there; we're in this together.
Happy Cleansing,
Peanut

Today I'm down to 160 so that's 4 pounds. I don't know why I've lost so little weight this fast but that's okay. If I keep eating healthier, I will continue to lose. My final goal is 145 lbs (how much I weighed when I got married 5 years ago and within 18 months gained 40 lbs) so I'm getting steadily closer. When I started MCing 2 1/2 or 3 years ago I weighed 184 lbs. I've lost some each MC and gain some back but always on a downward trend. I'm in much better shape than when I started so some of it now is muscle weight too.
Just hang in there you are helping your body absorb your food so much easier that you will need less to survive without much effort. It takes time but it works. Nothing worth having is ever easy. If it was you wouldn't appreciate it so much. You can do it. I believe in you.
Truly,
Peanut
