YouTube: dbfinchAs obesity continues to drag us deeper into the fiery depths of Hades, it seems only fitting that some people would turn to a higher power for salvation from the blubbery grip of gluttony.
New research shows obese African-Americans lost more weight on church-based fitness programs and were able to maintain the weight they lost for at least six months. Preach on!

Reflecting on the Week
I was mad surprised to be 305 lbs this morning. I had to double, triple, and quadruple check. 7 lbs in a week when I haven’t even been working out due to my injury… AWESOME! That puts me at half my goal for the month already. I don’t expect a big week like that next week, but I do expect a loss.

Reflecting on the Week
This is a little late, as I weighed in on Thursday but I got a bit caught up with some other projects I am working on. What can I say? 2.8 lbs! That’s what. It’s a great loss considering the week I had last week. All in all it was a good week, because guess what…I made my number one goal for January. What was that goal you ask? Well, it was to consistently eat right and exercise for the entire 31 days of the month. Why? So that I can ingrain the habit into my thick skull.

Reflecting on the Week
Another week and another positive weight loss experience. AWESOME! This time I lost 3.6 lbs. That’s perfectly in line with my monthly goal of 15 to 20 lbs. So far this month I have lost a little over 12 lbs. This past week was a weird one. Why? Well, because I felt as if I wasn’t working out enough or eating healthy enough. Although, I was! That’s what’s so weird about it. I was eating the right things, while still not restricting myself to the extreme. I was still working out and getting my sweat on, but it all felt like it wasn’t enough. I am glad to see that it WAS enough. I honestly wasn’t expecting any weight loss this week, so 3.6 lbs is a great number. Andp it’s a realistic one. The anticipation of hoping on my EatSmart digital bathroom scale was killing me. I am so glad it went well.

Reflecting on the Week
Another week down and another few pounds lost. This week I lost 2.9 lbs, which puts me at 318.4 lbs. I’ll take that, as long as I have a loss and continue to feel great I can stay motivated. Last week I was feeling a bit sluggish, but now I am rocking it. I lost 6 lbs last week, and didn’t expect to lose as much this week (although I secretly yearned for it).
