So after 3 days of the stomach flu and not being able to eat or drink enough water, I am completely drained! I feel like I have absolutely no energy for anything. I slowly started back eating today but definitely not enough to fuel my body. I completely understand what it means now when people say food is fuel. I definitely hope that tomorrow is better and that I am able to get a good breakfast in to fuel my workout. Through this journey I have learned so much about food and my limits with food. As someone who is recovering from binge eating it’s very important that my relationship with food is healthy and not a crash diet. As I continue to learn more and respect and love my body by providing it nutritious food I can feel the changes that come with it.

RBL -Jodie Heddin
After my flare-up and day of rest yesterday I was back at it today. I did the Cardio Dance Blast Class tonight and it felt AMAZING! However by the end of the class my hip and back, which has been my primary source of pain was already beginning to hurt.
I had a discussion with God prior to class, if he would keep my pain to a minimum I promise to push through it and keep moving! I can already see such a difference I don’t ever want to turn back or reach a stand still! #RBL2019
RBL – Angie Parnell’s healthy lunch
I was super excited to come home a create a healthy lunch. Even my 3 year old that tagged alone made healthy choices. Brian wanted strawberries, black beans, caulliflower Rice’s, humus and tortilla chips. I have a black bean, salsa, and caulliflower rice barrito with a side of veggies and hummus. I don’t like carrots, but today I’m going to learn to like them with he help of my favorite humus. Such an encouragement and support this morning 💕

RBL -Haley Crawford says God Sends Little Messengers
Okay, so today wasn’t my finest day emotionally. I was so burnt out from teaching kiddos and dealing with observations and all of life’s other stressors that I just wanted to curl up in bed. On my way home all I could think of was my “well deserved” nap that I was going to take (which was likely going to be too long).
I arrived home and got a quick snack of a boiled egg and sat down for a few moments. That’s when two little black kitties come wandering up purring loudly and rubbing themselves against my hand. I suddenly felt so warm and happy to know that I was wanted and loved.
At first I thought it was silly to be so uplifted by two cats, but as I sat my mind wandered to God’s creation and His perfect plan. God placed animals in our lives for a reason just like everything He ever made. And if He has a plan and purpose for all animals big and small, how much more does He have in store for us?
RBL – Rebecca Castles Working out can be fun!
Working out can be fun!
I used to think that working out was a chore. Sweating was an inconvenience and going to the gym was a hassle. Now that I am 5 weeks in I’ve discovered that going to the gym is a stress reliever!
Sweating is proof of putting your all into it and working out is worth it. My favorite is the Sprint 8 on the recumbent bike. If you have not tried it yet, I highly recommend it.
