Weight Loss Wednesday #3

It is true that my swimming pool is located only 4 feet from my bedroom window

It is also true that it would only take a gentle toss for my bathroom scale to reach the bottom of said pool

Enough said:)

With that in mind

I choose to make WLW a function of success

And not of failure

Instead of focusing on the scale and actual weight loss

I have decided to focus on two goals per week

Which I will work toward

Over the next week these will be my two goals

I am taking the above 2 lb each weights to the office

I will use them a couple of times per day

It will be healthy for me to take short breaks from long projects

To use these weights to help reduce stress

And strengthen my arms, shoulders and back

My second goal will be to reduce my soda/sugar intake

I am pre-diabetic

My blood sugar is high but not quite in the diabetic range

My plan is to Not allow it to reach that range

Drinking caffeinated drinks is not something that I ever do

However, Sprite has become a daily habit

Do you know how much sugar and how many empty calories are in a 20 oz bottle of Sprite?

Let's just be honest and say: A LOT

So, cutting out the Sprite this week is my main focus

Using the weights at work is my second focus

I am excited to see how God unfolds the week ahead

And I look forward reporting back next week

With my progress as well as another set of goals

AND...

Maybe I'll just get that scale out from the bottom of the pool

Join in if you have a tip or goal to share

I'd love to support you

Blessings for a healthy week!
