A Blessing Today - Who is He to you today?

As I splurged this week and overate, I reflected on the role food has played in my life.  Food has been my addiction, the thing that I use in excess.  Really not any different than an alcoholic drinking too much.

As I drove Ethan to school this morning we listened to He Is by the Prestonwood Choir and Michael Chenoweth.  What a blessing this song.  It covers who God is in each book of the Bible.  So many stuck out but today he is my Strength and My Shield.  Below are two videos with the song.  The first is a smaller group and the second has the entire choir.  I pray that this will bless you.  I hope you will share Who He Is to you today.

The video in the clip below is not as good but this is with the full choir...my favorite of the two.

Super Bowl Sunday! Big Splurge!

Well the Super Bowl came and went!  I ate more tonight than I have in a long time.  We ordered wings from Sauced.  I ate to my hearts content and had some Diet Dr Pepper.  I did overeat.  I did take some Carb Ease Plus and I hope that helped some...thinking I should have taken FiboTrim instead.  FiboTrim is probably a more appropriate choice since I probably ate more fat than I did Carbs.  I finished off the night with some EXCELLENT Chocolate Chip Cookies made by Shana.

I enjoyed the food but at the same time I really look forward to eating better this week.  The food was great but I know I can draw the line better and NOT overeat.  I am ready to work hard this week to make up for the extra calories consumed tonight.  Working out will be key this week!

As for a Superbowl parallel...the Giants were not th ebest team this year but they sure did finish strong.  They had some big failures during the year but they rose to the challenge and played their best at the end....I can do that too!  Join Me!

Day 27

Starting today the blog will change a little.  I won't bore you with everything I eat and take each day.  I will update you on the products I am taking and the new foods or exercise that I find.  If you want more details, let me know.  I will get back to a more detailed summary when I start my NEXT 24 Day Challenge.

Today I am taking the MNS E system.  I also rotating Spark with Advocare Slim.
I spent my workout today lifting weights and did a few short fast runs on the treadmill like I have seen on The Biggest Loser.

Shana and I had Date Night tonight.  We went to The Cheesecake Factory.  You must go try the Skinnylicious Menu, all the plates are under 590 calories.  Shana had the Tuscan Chicken and I had the BBQ Chicken.  With the BBQ Chicken they served a Corn Succotash with Corn, Bell Pepper and Zucchini.  I normally would have picked out the corn and zucchini.  Today I ate the bell peppers and I must say the Corn Succotash was Very Good.  They served 3 chicken breasts, about 3oz each.  I ate two and brought 1 home for lunch on Saturday.  And for the first time ever, we ate at Cheesecake Factory and passed up the Cheesecake!

Oh yeah, we went shopping and I bought new jeans. Down from 38's to 36's.  This is awesome!
