Hey People,
Well I got on the scale the other day and it said I had lost 31 lbs!!!!! I promise if you could see me as I write this you'd be laughing!!! Isn't it great when you are accomplishing what you set out to do? Now, don't get the game twisted sistah girl has a good little road ahead to reach my goal weight but this progress has been wonderful for the self-esteem.
Side Bar: Let me talk to the women for today...is it not reassuring when there is more attention attained from the opposite sex? I mean I was FINE before but shoot my stock is on the rise...lolol!Now, that is not to say that you and I weren't FABULOUS before and even more so now...but the cute little stares are nice. However, we know that living healthy and getting that temple God gave us in order is the "ultimate" goal the earthly treasures aren't too bad! (smile)
Nevertheless, lets keep our mind on track and get these pounds off....shoot the summer is coming and I want to wear shorts (LOL)! Yall, know what mean (smile). I am a fan of the capri but when I get these legs in tip-top form you better watch out! Check out this link to help tone those thighs...smile!

Off Topic...
Howdy,
I know that this blog is suppose to be about my weight loss journey-which for right now is suspect..LOL! But I was reading a friend of mine blog about dating and needed to express myself here so bear with me. What do you all think about dating vs courting? Sometimes I feel like dating can have a negative view. As for me, I want to be courted here are some definitions that I've found to help those of you that are not sure of the difference.
Dating was invented in the early part of this century. Prior to that time, marriage always involved much more input from the parents, and "trial relationships" leading up to marriage were not conducted at all.
Courtship is a word that has been adopted to describe a biblical model for the relationship leading up to marriage. In the Bible, the parents were always involved in the marriage process.
-In the modern dating scene you usually hide all your faults to give a false impression about yourself, in order to keep your partner liking you. Recreational dating is about self-gratification -
- you date to satisfy your own needs.
Courtship is about open and honest exploration of each others lives and families leading up to engagement and marriage. Courtship is about marriage -- you court in order to see if there is any reason why you shouldn't get married. There is no romantic interaction until after the commitment to marriage.

I'd love to hear what you have to say so please feel free to post!
As always-Stay prayed up, blessed and highly favored!
