Feeling Fabulous!

Day 12 of 21

And I am feeling fabulous!

I wish that I had great words of wisdom to share on this 12th day of the reset.  But none come to mind.  Except that we are all in, 100%  committed and going strong!

We spent some time today getting food prepared for the week and we are looking forward to starting our third week on Wednesday.

Losing weight has been amazing, this journey has been an eyeopener in so many ways and I will share it all with you.  And I think we are well on our way to a number of new habits.  But I will be grateful to not have to look at a book to tell me what is on the menu today.

Although having said that, there is and has been a great deal of value not having to think about the menu and just folloiwing it. But I will be glad to get back to our routine with a number of modications thanks to the reset.

On the menu today:
We are loving the fruit platter in the morning

Hearty Vegetable Miso Soup, dinner last night
is also on the lunch menu for today

Microgreen salad with roasted raw pumpkin seeds


 Can't even begin to tell you the number of hearty italian sunday dinners have been had at this table.  Sunday dinner today did not have pasta, meatballs, cutlets or any number of the things that have often been on our Sunday menu.  

Today was all about eating to fuel our bodies with food that will help us reset our bodies to thier optimim operating level and all in all it was quite tasty!

Snack today as a vegan tropical strawberry shakeology with some cinamonon and chia seeds.  It was good.

Tonight's menu is marinated roasted beets, coconut collard greens and toasted millet.

  A little break from making St. Joseph's bread for a reflection on keeping my focus on Jesus.

No matter what I can always find Joy in the Journey

This morning I did my prayers and readings in my prayer room and then went outside to enjoy some time in the backyard oasis while I shared my reflections on today's Jesus Calling by Sarah Young.  And today's reading always reminds me of one of my favorite books " Hinds Feet on High Places" by Hanna Hurnard. I believe that the journey to the mountaintop, the experiences along the way, the gorgeous views and the beauty that it seen on the climb enriches the experience not only along the way up and when I get to the top and take in the beauty of God's nature all around me.  It also fortifies me for the climb back down. While I would love to stay on the mountaintop, I know that I will have to make the trek back down.  And what a blessing to take it all with me on the way down and and beyond for whatever comes next I am back in the valley.               
Today's resounding message in my morning readings and reflections is to let go of control and to trust and surrender all to the ONE who created me and as scripture says .   "For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.  Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you."   Jeremiah 29:11-12   Can you relate? Trust and Surrender
