"Dieting is the practice of eating food in a regulated fashion to achieve or maintain a controlled weight. In most cases dieting is used in combination with physical exercise to lose weight in those who are overweight or obese. Some athletes, however, follow a diet to gain weight (usually in the form of muscle). Diets can also be used to maintain a stable body weight."
I wake every morning to go the gym and start my daily exercises and mainly take 2.5 hours of workout and lately been trying my best to eat more healthy, so all the sudden I look at my weight and it is the same!! Haven't lost not even one ounce! Du got me frustrated! All the sudden I am looking around for some diet and reading and learning more about healthier eating and started eating more organic and natural food no red meat, no butter, no eggs only egg whites, no bread only natural potato bread even drank potato milk and guess what?...no shredded pounds! It is kind of hard sometimes getting to my age (52), menopausal, little crazy and to top that no weight loss!
Well had to go to my Doctors appointment and took some blood test he had ordered for me. That morning did my spinning class, 45 min of hard labor! Got to the Dr. office and sat down, he took my BP and had it really high! OMG! But Dr. I took my pills I am doing exercises, I do spinning, zumba, weight training, eating light, no salt! So he looked at me "Why are you not losing weight?" ha what a question and immediately I started crying he got desperate please don't cry or I will cry also! It was such a funny moment for me and emotional at the same time. You get to a point in life that it is nearly impossible for you as a women to lose at least 5 miserable pounds and my Dr. is asking me why I do not lose weight! He looked up my blood test results and it so happens that my thyroid gland is just like me, crazy! It is not working how it should be so kind of got a crazy body. Gave me some ideas and diet tips to follow, changed medications so I am starting to lose my weight and feel better! Dieting is not an easy task when you have the combination of many years with bad habits and when all develops around food, but your suppose to make it.
When we spend time with God in a regimen of reading the Bible, praying and fasting and all the sudden you feel you are not getting any where you feel like the diet plan! Eating healthier and not losing a pound! When I went to my Dr. I felt as when you go and look up all your diet plan, reading the Bible, check, praying, check, fasting, check! and results, not seen yet! And why is there no answers! Well sometime all we need is to change our strategy and start a new regimen in our journey with the Lord! Got to see in what area we have to cut down and what area we have to exercise more! The Lord is always at the same place waiting for us but we complicate our own journey or sometimes our angel who is bringing us our answer had to make a stop to fight for us. God always answers our prayers, sometimes got to wait, sometimes it is yes, others is no but it gets there just got to learn to wait. Sometimes we want to lose 10 pounds in one week but if you to take it one step at a time a healthy way is to lose 2-3 pounds a week and we will get those 10 pounds off forever in a more healthier way!
Yep prayer is part of our special diet to get to be that women or men of God we always aspire to become! At least I do! I know it is hard for me but I sure am trying! Dieting not easy when you love food! Praying not easy when you are tired and want to sleep or do not find time but makes the diet more easy to follow!
Well one thing I know! Prayer changes everything! Dieting changes my life! Maybe I'll lose some pounds or my mind but I'll keep on trying!
Love you all! Remember the Lord always has the most greatest plans for you! Plans for your good health and awesome life!
Blessings!
