Update on getting healthy:
After my 2 mile walk outside 2 weeks ago my heart was racing
for at least an hour after. So I went to see the Dr. today. She told me that it
is still safe to exercise but to ensure that I slowly build up to make sure
that I am not putting too much stress on my heart. So I think that for the next
month I will be doing my in-home walking video or taking a short walk outside.
As for food choices...I have been doing pretty well. Going
into the clearance Easter candy aisle was a huge mistake last week though. Please
keep my in your prayers as I seek to not even bring the sweets into the house.
When it comes to chocolate I have zero will power. I have been thinking about
doing a fast. I am thinking that I might eat only veggies, beans, rice and
dairy for at least a week. I think that my body could use a fast of
sugar/starch, I think this will also help me to not crave sugar so much also.
Please keep that in your prayers as well, that if this is what the Lord wants
me to do that He will show me clearly.
As for creativity...I got my
colored pencils in but have yet to use them. I have been cooking more though
which is also an outlet for creativity for me. I made Saag Paneer http://allrecipes.com/recipe/absolutely-perfect-palak-paneer/ this week and it turned out great. It
was the first time that I made it and I am happy with how well it turned out.
Who knows it just might be a staple if I start the fast :)
The Spiritual side...I have been slacking on reading the
Bible daily and even praying. Please keep praying for me to seek the Lord no
matter what and even if it means that I have to get up early. Please pray that
the Lord would give me the strength to get through each day, that I seek the
Lord in all I do and for safety as I start exercising on a regular basis.
