I have a secret!!!!

I bet you're just dying to know what it is, right?  Well let's get right to the point.  I was not the most disciplined girl on Thanksgiving day.  It's tough having double food duty with lots of buttery, sugary goodness lurking around at every corner.  I can testify from Thanksgivings past that I was way more controlled this year than I have ever been.  The amazing thing is that I lost 2 lbs. the week of Thanksgiving and inch off of my waistline.  AMAZING!!!  What I did not do was continue to eat like the gluttonous fiend that I enjoy being on occasion for the rest of the weekend.  I did not miss any time at the gym either.

We've now entered December, and it's time to get serious for real yo!  I am meticulously keeping track of my food, water, and workouts.  I am also reporting to my coach, Mrs. Jessy Dendy of Team Ascension.  I want to make momma proud, so I am being as detailed as I can.  It's time to kick into full throttle discipline.  Oddly enough, my morning devotion was about discipline too.  Yes, God, I get it.  It's go time!  "No discipline seems enjoyable at the time, but painful.  Later on, however, it yields the fruit of peace and righteousness to those who have been trained by it." Hebrews 12:11  How's that for a word, huh?  Well this girl is psyched about the changes even the discipline.  I know that I will look at other people and want my results now now NOW, but I have to remember that I'm just like Hermie the Common Caterpillar.  God isn't finished with me yet.  He's teaching me all kinds of cool stuff and transforming all of me not just my body.
