DON'T GIVE UP

Have you ever seen those picture memes that have a picture of someone really cute working out and then below it it has someone else doing it all wrong and the caption says- what I think I look like working out and what I actually look like.  Well that is true to me. If that gets me up and going to stay healthy, then I prefer to think of myself as the one looking good while exercising!  All the while I have legs and arms swinging everywhere, fat giggling all over, hair sticking out and frizzy, but I'm doing it! And, well, that's one way to get those cute guys to look at me!! haha
I can only imagine that I look funny to others that really look good.  But they had to start somewhere and I am sure they were not as flexible or strong as they are now when they started.
So I joined a gym.  My doctor tells me I need to loose this weight or my health will continue to spiral down.  I don't want that to happen.  I feel good, but just because I do doesn't mean I am healthy.  I need whip myself into shape.  I will be 50 this year!! I want to look good and feel good!!
I find out my lab work this week.  I can't lie, I'm a little nervous about it.  Do you ever get this feeling in your gut about things?  I do, a lot.  I got it when I got pregnant, I knew I was and I was! I got this feeling when I was diagnosed with cancer.  I just knew it was there. So I got this feeling again, and I feel my labs are going to be up (my blood sugar and cholesterol).  If it is, I can't blame anyone but myself.  I should be taking better care of myself, and maybe this is the kick in the butt I need.  So I am here to start this better, healthier me.
So what I say to all my friends out there that read my blog,  DON'T GIVE UP.  We all have gone through different trials.  My trials are different than yours, but we are strong.  DON'T GIVE UP!
Trust God, have faith.  Love.  If you don't know Jesus, then message me and I will introduce you to him.  (facebook- autumn wix chapman)
Jeremiah 17:7-8, "But blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence in is him.  They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream.  It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit."
Love to all,
