Grace and Strength

Today marks one month since I began the Grace and Strength program.

I can honestly say that it has been so tough, yet so freeing!  The first week I thought I was going to die, the second week I just wanted to quit (I also had an infected tooth that week!!).

It has gotten so much easier as the days go by and I think I'm falling into a routine.

My eating has cleaned up tremendously.  I eat healthy, lean proteins and veggies.  I drink so much water that I could float away--and I have got to find better deals on toilet paper!!

I feel so good--better than I have in a long time!

AND---I stopped taking my blood pressure meds over the weekend!!!

In one month I have lost 17.2 pounds and 8 inches.

I had a few set-backs in the first week or two, so I could have done better.

I am still celebrating that 17.2 pounds GONE forever!!!!

Ok, can't believe I'm going to do this....here is a face shot of my before and after.

Keep in mind the before is with NO makeup--oh my word can't believe I'm posting this!

Maybe by the end of month 2 I'll be ready to share my full body shots--it's so embarrassing that I let myself get to that point and I honestly hate to look at them!
