My Chronicles on The Daniel Plan, Week #6
Have you ever said you were not going to weigh anymore and you did it anyway? Guilty. Did it today. The results? Other than a couple of ounces I did not lose any weight from the past 7 days. Todd lost half a pound. Not what I had hoped. However I feel good. We were […]
I Gave Up Facebook Because…
Yesterday I shared that I was going to deactivate my Facebook account. Today I have been emailed, called, & texted asking me WHY.The bottom line of why I gave up FB is because God put it on my heart to do so. FB can be a good thing but it can also become a negative. […]
My New Theme for 2014
Every year I prayerfully choose a word or phrase that I believe God wants for my life over the next 12 months. Last year it was transformational. This year my theme word will be “intentional.” Intentional. Done on purpose. Deliberate. Planned. Intended. Meant. Studied. Knowing. Premeditated. Having to do with intention. This year I want […]
Are You Prepared for a Personal Storm?
Yesterday an ice storm hit Birmingham, Alabama hard. The city wasn’t prepared for it. The local weather stations communicated they would get a “light dusting at best” and most of the ice and snow would be south of central Alabama. The problem is that the storm shifted. This changed the forecast but thousands of people […]
My Chronicles on The Daniel Plan, Week #5
As of today Todd & I have been on The Daniel Plan for 4 weeks. He has lost 17 lbs! Go Todd! I have lost 6 lbs! Both of us have dropped a size. The most important is that we feel good. We haven’t gone hungry or felt deprived in any way. Yesterday at church […]
Wild Things Still Happen When I Pray
After over 30 years I am still amazed at the wild things that God does when I pray. I love what Mark Batterson says about prayer: “Prayer adds an element of surprise to your life that is more than a surprise party or a surprise gift or surprise romance. In fact, prayer turns life into […]
My Chronicles on The Daniel Plan, #4
Three weeks ago Todd & I started The Daniel Plan. Today is the 1st day of week #4. We did a detox for 10 days which is more restrictive. Now we are just eating healthy. Nothing processed. Vegies, fruits, protein & whole grains. We feel great. We don’t go hungry. Still not craving anything. No […]
My Chronicles of The Daniel Plan, Week #3
Today, Monday, January 13, 2014 begins week #3 on The Daniel Plan. Wow. Two weeks ago I started detox. After 10 days I went on the basic DP way of eating which is nothing processed, FRUITS, 50% vegies, 25% protein, 25% whole grains. None of the whites: sugar, flour, pasta, rice or potatoes, dairy. Coffee/Tea […]
My Chronicles of The Daniel Plan, Week #2
Today is Monday, January 6, 2014. On January 29th my husband started a new teaching series at church called “The Daniel Plan.” This is my chronicle. For one week I have been on the detox phase which is not required but after scorning 148 on the medical questionnaire I knew I needed this. No coffee. […]
My Chronicles of The Daniel Plan, Week 1
My husband decided last year that he would begin a preaching series on The Daniel Plan. For some time we have felt we needed to live healthier lifestyles but with our hectic schedules my love of cooking (and eating) it was easy to procrastinate. Not that we haven’t tried. We have been on health food […]
