New Creation

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" 2 Corinthians 5:17

In this journey, my focus is on becoming a new person. If I'm just a fat chick trying to lose weight, I'm in a battle. If I change who I am, there is no battle.

Therefore, I am now a person who loves to be healthy. I am a person who eats well. I love food - real, nutritious food that comes out of the ground and was grown by someone with a face, not in a petri dish. I am an active person. I am someone who is no longer embarrassed or ashamed of my body. It's a beautiful work in progress. So there.

Also, I discovered after hanging out with good friends tonight that I'm a person who talks too damn much about myself and this new me, so I'm gonna quit that. I'm gonna quit talking about it so much and just BE it. (Except when I need support or accountability cause I'm also a person that loves and needs to live in community.)

Done and done.

What I ate today:
cream of wheat
1/2 cup coffee
leftover quinoa salad with fat free feta (deelish addition, btw)
homemade tortilla soup with chips and guacamole
thai iced tea
diet coke
sauteed apples over about 3/4 cup vanilla ice cream
