For Women Only: An Ordinary Woman's Diet, Fitness, Weight and Beauty Log and Diary

I want to glorify Christ in my body, and I am learning how to do that. My name means "womanly," but what does that mean? When I became a new wife and Christian, I went on a mission to understand Biblical womanhood, focusing on her from the inside. In more recent years, as my body succumbed to the pull of glutony, gravity and aging, I am focusing as well on my physical appearance. I am learning how God would have me live as a beautiful woman (and aren't we all?) in this world for His glory.

I'm on the stationary bike on the 3rd floor of the hotel. There are 3 other women in the room with me. One is running about 8-9 mph or some crazy speed on the treadmill. I hope she doesn't have a "treadmill encounter" or some sort of accident. I'm not refreshed on my CPR & have always prayed that God wouldn't put me into that situation. "Step back, I'm a psychiatrist!"

The 2nd woman just left. Well, what I wrote this morning got cut off - that happens a lot when I use my wireness cell-phone connection.

I exercised 30 min on the bike and 20 min on treadmill. I should do more stretching type exercises.

I ate: Starbucks gooey brownie thing, a decaf coffee, 290 cal worth of sunflower seeds and a small McDonald's hamburger with extra ketchup and lots of water.

Maybe instead of joining LA weight loss to lose these extra ten pounds (which I still may do) I will do the Maker's Diet. I bought two books today - Dr. Phil's weightloss book and The Maker's Diet. I am hoping to read them on the plan home tomorrow.

Dinner is still left. I hope that I go easy. Thank You, Lord. Go with me.

You are building muscles and working off fat, so what's wrong with a little extra ketchup on your burger? I say, go for it! At least you did the bike!!
