Hello Everyone!
I wanna start off by saying that today marks 2 weeks since my miscarriage & I'm acutally feeling really good. I feel motivated to get my life back on track and to focus on my health to prepare for the future! God used my last blog post to touch the lives of many and it truly made me realize that the pain and heartache was well worth it. My husband and I learned so much through that experience and I'm so thankful that I can put my trust in a God that has way better plans for my life than I could ever imagine.
Anywho, I have 3 weeks and 2 days to lose some weight before our vacation. We'll be heading to Miami for a night & then boarding a cruise the next day so that means I'll be in a bikini for 8 whole days... YIKES! My body is NOT ready for that. After everything that has happened I got SO far off track. When I found out I was pregnant instead of doing the right thing & eating properly & staying active I did the opposite and then when the miscarriage happend I didn't really care about what I looked like anymore & I didn't care about my health either so I continued to eat junk & just lay around. When i finally got my mind right again I realized how stupid those decisions were so I'm using what happened to motivate me to change my lifestyle AGAIN! So this isn't just for the crusie. This is a 2nd chance to get into shape and be healthy so I can give my best to my husband and for our future family. After the miscarriage happened it truely opened our eyes to see that there are things we need to change before "trying again" & this is HUGE for me. I need to fix my bad habits NOW.

I'm going to spend my day praying about it because in the past the only way I've been able to change my lifestyle was by prayer. Anytime I would have the urge to be lazy or to eat something unhealthy I would pray about it and the urge would instantly go away. When I feel myself drifting away from my relationship with God I always get back into the same unhealthy routines. My body is being used by God in many ways and the less healthy i am the harder it is to use as an example. SO if you're in the same boat as me I'll be keeping up with my weight loss and journey to a healthier me AGAIN on here.
I have a good feeling about this journey THIS time because my relationship with God is different now. I never want to know how it feels to be far away from him again. I'm excited to start feeling GOOD again, so here we go!!!!
