Wednesday Wow Factor!

Week 64
Start date: 12/28/11
Initial weight: 220 
Current weight: 198 (Last weigh-in 2/13/13)
Total weight loss: 22 pounds! 


Last week's dream focus: Start eating better again; continue shutting the devil down when he tries to creep around me; continue giving God the praise for helping me through such difficult situations and making it worth my while to hang in there; and rock my Zumba instructor training!

What went well: Zumba instructor training was AWESOME!  I went.  I danced.  I learned.  I danced some more.  I made friends.  I bought a Zumba shirt. I danced.  AND I MADE ANOTHER DREAM COME TRUE!  

I love the fact that I burned a TON of calories.  I love knowing that someday I'll teach my first class and have fun leading people to get fit.  But the best part is thinking back to how far I've come in this journey.  I can dwell on the fact that I haven't lost a bunch of pounds or that I'm not wearing a single digit clothing size.  But I'd rather thank God for bringing me through hard times... for helping me constantly pick myself up when I stumble... for helping me overcome insecurity and inferiority!  I'd rather dwell on the good! 

Challenges:  My choices when dining out have improved and I'm starting to get my food intake back under control. I still find myself tempted to eat more than I need of foods that aren't the best for me.  I'm making progress again - and that's good!

I'm a little nervous about learning all the choreography I'll need to know to teach a class.  I have to make time to work on it, outside of Zumba class.  I CAN do this!

This week's dream focus: Keep making good food choices; continue shutting the devil down when he tries to creep around me; continue giving God the praise for helping me through such difficult situations and making it worth my while to hang in there; and make time to work on Zumba choreography!
