Day 7: One Week Down

It has been one week since I started on this great adventure. I have had a lot of bumps along the road this week but I survived. I feel healthier, exhilarated, and already starting to crave working out.

Today was suppose to be our rest day but I was so anxious from not working out that I had to hit the gym. I worked out on the elliptical for 45 minutes - which is HUGE for me. I actually enjoyed it! I wasn't watching the clock and hoping it would end soon but instead was loving the burn and felt great.

Tomorrow is my first weigh in and I am pretty sure I won't be able to sleep tonight from the fear and anxiety inside me. I am so scared that I didn't lose weight or worse gained. I really need to work on not letting my fear and anxieties get the best of me.

The daily devotional below really resonates with me at the moment. I need to stop being afraid of the future and "trust in [His] unfailing love." I know I need to turn it all over to him and release my hold on the situation. I need to give in to the majestic plan he has for me.
