Quickie--exercise, calories overage, chrono-Bible-plan...

Just cause I have the WORST memory --used to have the BEST memory, but this is what assorted illnesses, meds, and middle age did to me--a recap.

Walked 25 mins, swam  & did pool-exercises 20 mins, and ate 250 cals OVER challenge calories. Yep. I could have done without the rice and chocolate probiotics and extra fruit. But, there ya go. The good and the bad.

I also yesterday began my chronological Bible reading plan. You can see the schedule HERE. I just began with January 1 and 2 (did double duty) and will work through it in order.

Off to Pilates..later...

Thanks for sharing the Bible reading plan. I've done a couple of those in the past but have not seen one where they put everything in chronological order. Very nice.

I love to see you when you're this enthusiastic (which is always, except for true tragedies). You love being alive, don't you? I hope it's contagious.

I can't believe your progress in weight loss--mamma mia! 115 lbs., it says. Holy Toledo, that's a whole human. You've done a shitload of work, lady friend. You know, in your photos, you really don't look particularly overweight, like maybe 10 pounds or so. Where do you put it? I'm sincere there. You just look regular. If I passed you on the street, the most I'd think is, "She sure looks healthy."

Keep it up!

I love the one year plan for bible reading! I've seen people who do the 90 day plan, I think, and I'm always afraid that it is TOO fast and they don't get as much out of it. The one year plan is awesome!! I recommend not only reading it but meditating and really thinking about it too. So glad you're doing it!

The extra 250 calories will be just fine! Just do some leg squats while reading the bible. :-)

Another interesting Bible reading exercise is to read different translations side by side. It's pretty amazing how passages (and thus interpretations) can differ. Being that I'm Catholic, I read a Catholic authorized translation side by side with the King James translation.

A fascinating book to read on Biblical translations is "Misquoting Jesus." I forget the author's name, but you should find it on Amazon.
