Re: Momma Of 5 do it Again- A story you can follow... 40 day plus journey.

Wow- sounds great!!

Yes I will definately keep you posted on progress. I asked God for the strength just to do water and light excersize and I got the strength "Hallelujah". Now I have lost crazy inches off my body in just a few short days. I am sooooo happy. I know you will do just fine and get through that Blah feeling, that comes and goes.
Press through gurl- we can do it!

That's a good plan you have. I heard when people get off their fast they usually gain back up to 8 pounds and maintain the rest of the weight they lost. (That's how I here the body take affect after soild food consumtion. Well let me tell you something, I said Lord, after all this sacifice and hard work I did to lose this weight, I DON"T WANT TO PUT not "1" pound back on forever. So I did some research, and had some knowledge of how to come off a fast the proper way. It's eating lightly basicly with soups, salads etc,and fruits like you mentioned for about 3-5 days and then introduce your body to more solid healthier food choices. I decided to do this and I choice a Glydemix way of eating to maintain my weightloss.

I am going to even do some shopping for a new pan and pot set, and baking set with a grill. This is exclusively for my new way of cooking and eating for me and my entire family.

Let me tell you something I don't ever want to face this unnecessary battle again in my life. I didn't believe I could ever reach over 240 pounds, but I did. I came down to 203 through changing the way I eat and now I'm taking off the rest which is 48lbs through fasting. In 16 days of fasting I'd lost 11 1/2 pounds and now I have lost even more in these past 20 -21 days. So I made up my mind to end my fast on the 23rd of February, this is a little over 40 days. I am so excited. I look in the mirror about every other day and sometime day after day and I could see the inches lost and I pinch my waste and it's getting smaller to grip!!! so excited!

My legs/inner thighs do not rub together hard like they use to and pretty soon I'll have that nice space/gap between my legs like I use to.

Congrats on your first day! I pray that you lose all your desired weight within the time frame of your fast. I pray your extra strength in the Lord Jesus Christ.

You go Gurl and try and enjoy each day on the fast.

Well God is helping me with my character, attitude or frustrations of daily things that go on in life. Most things just don't bother or upset me anymore- that's the power of God. I am also gaing back my confidence BIG TIME! I am all that and a bag up chips- You feel me!!! I am so happy- Praise God!
