Thanks for coming over from the email I just sent out! (if you don’t get my emailings, please sign up here)

So have you told me what you’re shedding and where you want to be and who you want to be by December 31st? You can email me here

And (this is why you landed here) - what am I doing about the two things I’m shedding?

Thing ONE: I’m shedding the sugar (the biscuits and the chocolates ….)

But I needed a simple plan of action, with small do-able daily steps that would make a difference. So yes, I’ve got the Weightwatchers’ App on my phone and I’m logging in everything I eat and focusing on eating all the lovely things that are no points : fruit and veggies and eggs and chicken and fish and . and. and….

And I lost 5lbs in my first week. It’s slowed down since then, but I’m on track. It feels SOOOOOO good!

Thing TWO: I’m shedding the procrastination. (which basically means the too-many hours on social media)

But again I need a plan of action, and daily steps. I’m actually using a daily scheduler planner.

First thing in the morning, as part of my time with the Lord, I’m praying over my day, asking for guidance, inviting him into what lies ahead. Then I’m filling in what I’m doing in a time-tabley sort of way, leaving very little room for wasting time!

And it’s amazing how much more productive each day is proving to be. I’ve even scheduled time for piano practice, time to read, time to walk, and time to - BE. I love it!

I’ll let you know how I get on.

What about you? What are you going to shed?

Hit the email thingy above and tell me; accountability works wonders!
