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…

If you’re looking for some good music, the guys are it. 🎶

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!

Start: 259.9 9/24: 249.8

Cardio day…

Not as fun as lifting days…

Working toward a 30 minute 5K…

A fitness summary shows a 3.1-mile run lasting 38 minutes with a heart rate range of 97–167 beats per minute.

“Change is not hypocrisy, it is growth.” I saw that quote recently.

It’s important to know that you can learn more information and change. Changing your mind does not cut your integrity, it enhances it.

A good first day of phase 2! Hit my protein goal and stayed under the calorie goal for today. Had a great lift this morning too. One day at a time! #195by50

Some have been asking about what apps I’m using to track my fitness goals.

For calories: Lose It! For lifts: FitBod For cardio: Strava

They all tie into my Apple Health app.

Dinner was fire! Posting my meals is really helpful accountability for me.

Day one of phase two is nearly in the books. I forgot how much I enjoyed the process of moving and eating well.
