I'm on a horse...

I of course say that as much like the Old Spice guy as possible, but I mean that I have gotten back on "the horse" of detox and working out.

Detox:
Well, it's not fun to detox. If you are detoxing at a cellular level (which is the ONLY true detox), you tend to get pretty tired. There are supplements to boost cellular energy; there are supplements to pull toxins from the brain; there are supplements to pull toxins from your fat tissue, organs and bone marrow; there are supplements to "catch" those toxins and help your body get rid of them so that they don't just circulate in your blood and deposit somewhere else. There is an eating plan that supports your hormones and is aimed at repairing your cells' membranes.

It's a lot, especially when it is also your first week of classes for the quarter and you are making up for a week of snow days in class, work and in the clinic. Add to this that one of the aforementioned supplements is to be taken every 4 hours: 1AM, 5AM, 9AM, 1PM, 5PM & 9PM. So, I didn't sleep very well this past week.

Sunday (yesterday) ended my first 7 days on, and now I have 7 days "off." Hopefully, I can get some sleep, as I made the command decision that I am not teaching any CPR courses during the week this week. I have 4 classes planned this weekend and two during the OSCE times next week on Tuesday and Wednesday morning. I am only 25% to my quarterly goal. Y'all please pray for me to hit my goals!

Working out:
It is SO nice to have a workout partner again! Our schedule is Monday, Wednesday and Friday. We did all three days last week and this morning... 4 for 4!!! Let's keep that faithfulness up! Woohoo!!!

Eating Plan:
One minor hiccup on Friday in the form of some potato chips, is all that stood between me and being completely faithful in that. Oh well... hopefully, it was small enough to not start me over with the symptoms of sugar withdrawal. That headache is NO FUN. Either way, I have been faithful again since, and I desire to be faithful for the remainder of the quarter. Fat loss is NOT THE GOAL, detoxification and cell membrane repair are. That said, it is normally the 2nd, and possibly the 3rd month, when the fat begins to pour off. This is according to doctors who have clinical experience with true cellular detox and have watched people heal and watched their bodies respond over and over again. The science is sound, and I know it works. What I do not have is a testimony. This has been because of me.




MY main goals for this quarter, again, are to:
1) Focus on God's love for me!!!
2) Receive that love to another level. I tend to be able to love others a lot more easily than I can receive love. Both of those start with receiving God's love, because love comes from God.
3) Surrender to Him, to another level and then another and another, etc. and allow Him to build faithfulness in me that results in consistent action.
4) Continually tell myself the Truth and not "agree" with the lies that the devil and my emotions and my past try to tell me.

It's 2AM and I have a class at 7AM... Good night!
