Hello and welcome to Week 11 of the “Tour de Cinch”. Hope you had a great Christmas, I certainly did…I got a new Bible for Christmas that I will use as my “church Bible”. We do the big jumbotron at church as I like to call it like so many other churches and, while I love it, I still like to have a good ole Bible in hand to follow along at times, too.
Well there are a lot of things I could share on this last week of the year but since I have limited time I will get right to the heart of this blog. Are you ready to make some changes in the New Year? And for what this blog is about I’m mostly referring right now to lifestyle changes to improve your health and the way you feel (I hope for sure that you will want to make some changes that will draw you closer to God, first and foremost). Have you set goals? Do you have a plan? If so, is your plan new or just another try at an old one? These are just some questions to inspire your thoughts and hopefully motivate you to believe that you can make some positive changes and stick with them. I’ll be the first to admit that I’m no great example of weight loss success but I am proud of the fact that back in 2005 at 298 lbs. I decided that I had to make some changes…got on my bike, rode thousands of miles, learned how to eat reasonably healthy and started a journey to better health (I lost about 93 lbs.). I must also admit that back in late September of this year when I was looking in to the Shaklee Cinch plan, I was a little skeptical based on what I’d learned over the years about weight loss but I decided to give it a try since I needed to get rid of some lbs that I had gained back...man am I ever glad that I did! This was just the plan that I needed to jump start me back to healthier eating and weight and, yes, based on what I’ve learned, I absolutely believe that I can maintain a reasonable weight going forward. If there are any of you that this interests, I would love for you to join me on your own personal “Tour de Cinch” in the coming New Year…let me know and we’ll be glad to help.
So in closing, how did I do this week even after Christmas breakfast, Christmas supper, Christmas trip to Nashville complete with a trip to Logan’s, Maggiano’s, California Pizza, etc., etc. etc…I still lost ½ pound and I am proud of that ½ pound. Total of 19 lbs!! Happy New Year and God Bless till next year. RJ
