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.

okay, take the good with the bad already

Today the scale is 155. And I worked out this morning at the cycle class. (It is getting harder because the muscles are saying, "be gentle, you're working me.") And last night I did my stretching exercises for about 15 plus minutes. I want to try to do those daily at some point, but if I cycle, I think I'll take a free pass.

Yesterday I did go off the structured routine (which is why this little diet thing I am doing is called a "fast" and had a cranberry juice with alcoholic content (about 4-5 ounces cranberry juice with about one ounce alcohol). I hadn't decided before if I would or would not allow alcohol. The biggest concern with alcohol for me is that I let my guard down and eat, and I didn't do that (eat).

So, I gotta go. The steak is cooking on the stove.
