This Season.

-
There are constant thoughts that roll through our minds throughout each day. Which ones do you listen to most?

We have over 60,000 thoughts a day (on average) which breaks down to 40-48 thoughts per minute.
Isn't that crazy?


What would you say you think about most?
Your kids?
Your job?
Your spouse?
Your friends?
Your car?
Your dog? (I love my dog...)
Your dreams?
Jesus?

Mine are pretty sporadic between those in no certain order. Only I don't look at what I am blessed to do daily as a "job". 

I didn't type Jesus last on that list on purpose. As I said it's in no certain order. And right now if I was concerned what other Christians may think of that, I'd move it and no one would know. But I'm leaving it as is. Because really Jesus should be FIRST.

It's the center of everything.
Are you unhappy? Are you feeling unloved? Are you having a hard time getting out of bed in the mornings, and not just on Monday's?
How's your relationship with Jesus?

There is a really amazing new song out, and it's touched my heart every time I've heard it. And I've had different thoughts each time I've heard it. It's by Hillsong United. And the lyrics that touch me most is 'I found my life, when I laid it down.' (Find Video with Lyrics here---> Touch the Sky)

Do you know what that means? When you find your relationship with Jesus, you are FREE. Because of the Cross, you are FREE. Your guilt set FREE. You my friend reading this ARE FREE! Just like any relationship, it takes work- on YOUR part only when it comes to Jesus. Surrender yourself, and realize you are accepted. Jesus already paid price for the relationship with you. (Thank you to Pastor Matt Porter for some of these words)

I won't touch on any of those other thoughts I listed that you probably think MORE about than the one I'm pointing out. For good reason. Because if you start your day with Him, the rest should fall into place a little easier.

Are you saved? You are. Have you accepted Him?


This Easter Season Remember, it's not about the Bunny. (that friends means it's spring & will only make you fatter!)
Because He lives. YOU ARE FREE.

I've been thin- size 5/6 thin ( never a 0... never a 2... it's called, booty and thighs, deal with it ), I've been pregnant, 3 times, 2 babies. I've been over weight where type 1 diabetes was a threat. And I've been healthy. Healthy is were I sit now. I know I've blogged this before, but I know I have over weight readers who want to reach out, and don't. Please don't hear me as bragging. Hear me as understanding. Because my inner fat girl is trapped . So I get you. I. Get. YOU! When I was 15 was my 'thin' it's not even thin really. It's teenager, where you don't realize what's cool, what's lame. ( you just think you know, you don't.. I promise, you really don't ) Well, at least, that was me. I was never cool. I was never the 'in crowd'. And while it sucked in high school, I'm really good now.  Nothing 5 years of therapy couldn't fix... When I was 16 when was pregnant. I gained SEVENTY FIVE pou...

Plant base

-
Okay... Okay. Before I get into the details. Here's my disclaimer. We are not 'Vegan' we are not 'Vegetarians'. We are on a plant based 'diet' for 2 weeks. We're testing the waters. We've watched a few shows, we've read several stats, and we've done some of our own research, we've heard first hand testimonies. So, we're trying it out. Day 3 is almost complete. I haven't felt bloated. And I have slept SO well. As soon as this week hits, I will go without alcohol too. So that added in, I think is going to amp up weight loss too. I do know that alcohol sabotages my weight loss. So I will cut that out too. However, weight loss isn't the goal of trying out plant base dieting. The goal is health. I was to be healthy on the inside as well as looking healthy on the outside. I can't wait to share results as they come!

We're Better Together in Sweet 16'

Happy Foodie post! I'm always excited to talk about food. Anything from a sweet tooth, to snacks, to entire meals for the family. A lot of ideas for our meals come from my pinterest account which can be found here,  my pinterest  You can find them under  Our way of life  or  Delish . There are healthy recipes in both....and there are two boards because when I first created my Pinterest account, I didn't realize how important it would be when I really started focusing on living a healthier lifestyle. However, with that being said, cheat meals are acceptable. ONCE a week. And no, not the entire day... we're talking a meal . Don't deprive yourself. (there is no cheat meal however, for my folks on a 10 day cleanse-- my fellow challengers) Let's begin! The Scott's are All In in Sweet 16' Because we're Better Together! (Is our motto for the year!) This is just my 10 day cleanse portion. I'll tell you what, and why. And also why I minimiz...
