beyond measure

I am blessed beyond measure.

I ask God to help me lose weight and all of the sudden a mom of one of Isabella's school friends asks if I will work out with her. Another friend, Paige asked if I wanted to work out with her around the same time and then my mom asks if I want to work out with her!

I am determined to lose some weight before our anniversary trip in June and to keep it off this time!

It's funny because when you pray and ask for something sometimes you don't see your answer. I didn't wake up the morning after my prayer weighing 122 pounds, dang it! But God did put 3 awesome people in my life to help motivate me and keep me in line.

So here I go...again!

That's awesome! Now I need to be motivated to not eat late at night and to actually get up at a decent hour and exercise! When I use the Wii Fit daily, I notice a huge difference. The problem is actually using it... I'm not a morning person at all!

Go Melissa!! You are such a beautiful girl and so determined. Thank YOU for being an inspiration to me.

I want Wii Fit!

I love how God answers our prayers! Sometimes it is so obvious & other times more subtle. Either way, it takes a tuned-in heart to recognize His help sometimes. You obviously have one! :D

Thanks for sharing!
