Traveled to Iowa today to visit E. Missed the protein goal, was a bit over on calories.
Tomorrow will be tricky with tailgating. But that’s OK, because it’s the journey not the destination.
If we claim to walk in the way of Jesus we are precluded from mocking those that appear to us as enemies. For in the way of Jesus there is no enemy to be mocked only image bearers to be loved.
I didn’t want to go to the gym today. I did anyway. Fitness is not a destination, it’s a journey. #195by50
A principle I am learning to embrace:
"When determining the size or complexity of a new habit ask yourself: What can I stick to — even on my worst day?, James ClearStart there. Master the art of showing up. Then advance."
Another day of hitting my macro goals.
I have figured out a fiber hack: Aunt Millie’s 5 Seed Low Carb bread. It has 35 calories and 9g of fiber per slice.
Forgot to get a pic of lunch (it was tuna and not very pretty 😂).
Cardio day was walking 18 holes (5.8 miles and 1000 ft of elevation). #195by50
Oh my, I just set up micro blog as a web app on my phone and it’s so slick. 10/10 recommend.
When you walk and play 18 holes of golf, you get a nice bit of exercise. Ditch the golf cart fam (unless you’re physically unable to play without it)! #195by50

Dinner was pizza and I still hit my goals. A little bit of planning goes a long way.
I have been listening to the Black Pumas this afternoon and dang…

Finished reading: The Virtue of Dialogue by C. CHRISTOPHER. SMITH 📚
A fantastic short read on the importance and centrality of conversation in the church.
I am just beginning: Slow Theology by A. J. Swoboda and Nijay Gupta 📚
Oh boy, this book is going to be so good and so very challenging. I am excited!
The kingdom of God is not in the wisdom of the world, nor in eloquence, but in the faith of the cross and in the virtue of dialogue. — St. Cyprian
I bumped into this quote in C Christopher Smith’s, The Virtue of Dialogue. It really resonates with me and I think it is quite timely.
Lifting through the soreness is a wild experience. The endorphin rush hits a bit different. #195by50
Weigh in Wednesday!
Losing water weight is fun! This is a fun number to share. It’s going to slow down dramatically here soon. But it sure is fun today!
