    July 28 Update

    Justin has lost over 20 lbs as of today and has less than 40 lbs to go for a 9.1% weight loss to date.  I am so happy for him.  His snoring is much better, also.  When he went to the grocery store Friday, he called me with some numbers (I thought it was the price of the groceries at first), then I realized he was giving me his blood pressure:  120/83.  That is great!  I don't remember the last time it was in the normal range for both diastolic and systolic pressures.
     
    I have lost 17 lbs as of today for an 8% weight loss to date.
     
    There are a lot of good things going on.  There are things that we have questions about, but we need to wait on the Lord and not jump to our own conclusions.  He has everything in His control, so we will wait.  His faithfulness makes it easier, especially since Justin can take things one-day-at-a-time MUCH better than I can.
     
    We are grateful for the blessings He has given us.
     
    Have a blessed week!

    Weekly Update - July 7

    Justin was really disappointed at his weekly weigh-in.  His weight was 207 lbs.  He felt it may as well have been 237 lbs.  I will try to help him work on it more this week.  This is his week to walk and sweat a lot at work, but that doesn't always translate into weight loss for him.
     
    I lost .6 lbs, gained .1 lb lean mass and lost .7 lbs of fat.  It's still not where I was when I came back, but it's doing better.  My lean mass is up a total of 2.3 lbs from when I started back.
     
    I have a lot of chores to do - and that is good, plus reading, and writing up projects.  I am trying to keep a balance on all those items and taking care of Justin and the children.  I had a REALLY bad headache this weekend, so on top of all that I was trying to accomplish, I was cranky, so Justin got a raw deal on that, unfortunately.  Having him home for three days helped so much, but I better not act like that or he won't want to have a three-day weekend with me anymore.  :-)
     
    Thanks to all who said a prayer for us.  God took care of the situation.  He knew what we needed and provided that for us.  God is so wonderful, awesome, loving, and generous!  God tells us not to worry.  Justin wasn't worried, but I was.  I sure hope I learn soon, thankfully, God loves me anyway.  What a good God!
     
    Have a blessed week,
