Healthy Journey Update: River Day; New Book To Read; Grilled Veggies; Me In A Speedo
Day 55 of my #75hard journey…more importantly, day 55 of our journey to a better healthier “healthy lifestyle“.
Everything is going great.
Hit the river yesterday with family and friends. Talked healthy recipes and healthy foods with friends. We encouraged one another and had a blast.
Started my 3rd book of the challenge… “Mansfield’s Book of Manly Men“. It’s started off great. Looking forward to reading it! #
Water intake going great! Haven’t cheated once…nor do I want to. Just keeping up with my calorie intake. All is going great!!!

Today’s Farmers Market Haul…
We’ve been blessed by the farmers we’ve bought from this week. Yummy fruits and sweet delicious fruits!
Although Father…a little rain would be nice. I know they need it. If you could find it in your will to send them some rain for their crops…we’d be grateful…and thankful Father. Amen!
Today’s haul: Spuds, pears, purple onion, tomatoes and zucchini! We’re building our menu for our trip to the river tomorrow with family and friends. I’m gonna be grilling burgers AND veggies, and Courtney is making her world famous cucumber salad…YUMMY. It’s gonna be AWESOME!

Happy 4th of July Y’all!
July 4th, 1776! The Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Continental Congress…and America was born.
She’s lived through a lot. Her scars run deep. The blood of the valiant and innocent has been shed throughout her history. Graves, marked and unmarked, hold generations of wisdom, honor, and selflessness. She’s seen her share of wars against evil, both foreign and homespun, and she’s fought her fair share of battles to preserve humanity and dignity on the home front.
Through it all, one thing has remained steadfast in the face of celebration and adversity…God…although not as visible now as in days gone by, but still as present.
On this day that we celebrate freedom (for all), let’s not forget the One who grants us true freedom! May your day be filled with the blessings of family, fun, and fellowship. May God bless and keep you…and may God Bless America!!!
“For you were called to
freedom, brothers. Only
do not use your freedom
as an opportunity for
the flesh, but through love,
serve one another.
-Galatians 5:13“Liberty must at all hazards be supported. We have a right to it, derived from our Maker. But if we had not, our fathers have earned and bought it for us, at the expense of their ease, their estates, their pleasure, and their blood.” ~John Adams, President of The United States

Healthy Living Rocks: Weigh In Day; Market Days; Steak Seasoning; Warrior Soul; Too Much Weight Loss
Weigh in day today!
Also, went to my #hometown over the weekend and then to a market days in Wimberly, TX in search of our favorite steak seasoning …to no avail…they weren’t there! 4 hour trip…nothing to show for it. Ugh!!!
Warrior Soul has been a great book! As a #history buff I love it. I believe it to be a great book for anyone in the military currently OR a veteran of these United States armed forces. More farmers market shopping.
And…I really don’t like that I lost so much weight this week…and Courtney is down another pound!

Freedom By Design
We are designed by #God to be free! Free from the chains that bind us to sin! Freedom to conquer all the pitfalls the devil throws our way. Call on Jesus asking Him to deliver you to freedom! I can’t! You can’t! We can’t! But God can!
