Searching through Kindle books last night I found a section <span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://kindle.amazon.com/most_popular/highlights_all_time/51">Amazon: Most Highlighted Passages Of All Time</a>. </span><br />

<i><b>People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that's holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life. A true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake.</b></i><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>-Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert</b><br />
<br />
As I read this passage I realized how truly blessed I am to have my soul mate. My husband pushes me to be a better person in every way: spiritually, physically and emotionally.<br />
<br />
Getting back on board after a glorious Spring break!<br />

If it works stick with it!<br />
<br />
Down another <b>1.2 lbs</b>.<br />
<br />
Hubby was noticing my weight loss and jumped on board the fasting train:)<br />
<br />
The<span style="color: blue;"> <a href="http://fittonegroove.blogspot.com/2013/03/fast-diet.html">Fast Diet</a> </span>works!<br />
<br />
So I jumped on the stair machine at the gym with him to prove I could do it.<br />
<br />
Broke out into a major sweat! Heat rises and the machine is elevated so high all I could feel was the heat from the room. It was an amazing motivation to work out beside your partner in crime:)<br />
<br />
We are heading out of town for Easter break next week and I am definitely looking forward to spending time with my family. Lots of walking and of course vacation munching!<br />

What an amazing week! We took a couple of days off and headed to the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Our nephew flew in from St. Louis on Thursday so it was a weekend filled with family and food.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--Lfnuhssby4/UUnCwJqK7wI/AAAAAAAAApA/gYpIDMWN-0o/s1600/images+(5).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--Lfnuhssby4/UUnCwJqK7wI/AAAAAAAAApA/gYpIDMWN-0o/s1600/images+(5).jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
We went out for dinner Friday night for <a href="http://www.obxtasteofthebeach.com/home.htm">Taste of the Beach</a> by the Outer Banks Restaurant Association.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
We chose <a href="http://www.lonecedarcafe.com/">Basnight's Lone Cedar Cafe</a> as a recommendation from a awesome realtor. Food was amazing and service was outstanding! I had the Buffalo Shrimp as an appetizer and the Shrimp Fettuccine for my main course. Everything was fresh local seafood!<br />
<br />
<br />
After eating out all weekend I truly thought the scale would rise. Jumping on the scale this morning I am down <b>1.6 lbs! </b><br />
<br />
I am still doing the <a href="http://fittonegroove.blogspot.com/2013/03/fast-diet.html">Fast Diet</a> 2 days a week which seems to be working well. Additionally, I am keeping a written log of everything I consume in order to keep me accountable during the <a href="http://fittonegroove.blogspot.com/2013/03/fast-diet.html">Fast Diet</a>. Since we were out of town gym time has been lacking but I plan on getting back into the swing of things by the weekend.<br />

<br />
Who has heard of the Fast Diet?<br />
<br />
I actually had the radio on in the car for once (no cartoons blaring) hearing about the Fast Diet 5:2 and Dr. Michael Mosley.<br />
<br />
Fast Diet book is based on the documentary <a href="http://vimeo.com/54089463"><span style="color: blue;">Eat, Fast and Live Longer - Horizon</span></a>. The first release of the book Fast Diet was in the UK. Amazon UK <a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/product-reviews/1780721676/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt/278-5010311-4942831?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1"><span style="color: blue;">Fast Diet</span></a> book has over positive 738 reviews and the testimony reviews are amazing!<br />
<br />
The the Fast Diet is based on intermittent fasting on a weekly 5:2. Two days of 500 calorie intake continued with eat what you like the rest of the time.<br />
<br />
Using short-term calorie restriction/fasting may be effective when it comes to:<br />
<ul>
<li>Reducing blood glucose and insulin levels</li>
<li>Increasing fatty acid oxidation </li>
<li>Sparing and preserving muscle tissue</li>
<li>Increasing various health factors (lower inflammation, lower blood pressure, reduced oxidative stress, increased protection against neuro-degenerative diseases and more)</li>
<li>Keeping the metabolism strong/healthy </li>
</ul>
<br />
<b>I dived in! </b><br />
<br />
First week of results: <b>Weight loss 2.2lbs! </b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Finally breaking my plateau:)<br />
<br />

<br />
In 2005, I was diagnosed with <b>Multiple Sclerosis</b>.<br />
<br />
Usually I only get extreme reactions once every 3 months.<br />
<br />
Personally, it takes everything I have just to move my aching body out of the bed during these weeks. The hubby says he can always tell because one of my eyes looks extremely smaller, or slight eye drooping in my right eye.<br />
<br />
<b>It has definitely been a MS-ing week!</b><br />
<br />
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling disease that attacks the central nervous system, which is made up of the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. Symptoms may be mild, such as numbness in the limbs, or severe, such as paralysis or loss of vision. The progress, severity, and specific symptoms of MS are unpredictable and vary from one person to another.<br />
<br />
After initial diagnoses, I was with an amazing team of MS specialist in Augusta, Georgia. Which gave me added hope in my future for having a fulfilling life with children.<br />
<br />
I have high expectations of myself on a physical level because I know that I need to optimize taking care of myself in order to live a long and productive life.<br />
<br />
I try to be a positive force of nature in all circumstances, as I know that <b>I am Blessed </b>and there are people who have far worse life-threatening conditions.<br />
<br />
<b>I can do all thing through Christ who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
Every step you take matters in making a better version of yourself!<br />

I have been on a plateau for over a month in weight loss, but I can tell a difference in my body just by the way my clothes are fitting. So with the help of my wonderful hubby we did measurements of my entire body at the beginning of the week and will be doing them at least once a month to see progress in inches not pounds. At the end of the day if I can progress down in a pants size that is all that matters!<br />

<br />
Workout<br />
<br />
Wed - OFF Sick Hubby & Kiddos<br />
Thurs - OFF Sick Kiddos<br />
<b>Fri - Zumba</b><br />
Sat - OFF Class<br />
Sun - OFF Class<br />
<b>Mon - Pilates</b><br />
<b>Tues - PiYo</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<br />
PiYo was a rockin' class that not only had great body moving music but intense planking. I have taken in the past Pilates and Yoga where the mood is tranquil and focus on movement. PiYo motivated me to stay in the groove with stretching following each core exercise.<br />
<br />
Yoga mat and bare feet are a need. I wore my favorite college t-shirt "East Carolina Pirates" but will wear a fitted tank to the next class as shirt slipped down during downward facing positions. I could def feel my arms, abs, and legs after this fun fantastic workout!!<br />
<br />
Three workouts in 7 days is not too bad considering the whole fam besides my self were under the weather. Looking forward to a busy busy week at the gym:)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Can we get real for a second? I have three kiddos one girl Caroline 6mos, one boy Cooper 3yrs, & Taylor 20yrs my stepdaughter who is away at college.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Initially I thought, "When the New Year rolls around I will so get up at 4 am to get my workout on!" </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
How many times did that happen? = 0</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">What? Well a gym membership is not </span>exactly<span style="font-family: inherit;"> in our budget for the Spring of 2013 = Taylor getting married:) Compromise was to give up my ohhhhh expensive brand new iPhone cost plus monthly plan.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The reality is that it is too easy to jump ship and go to the gym. The benefits out weigh the constant checking of Facebook status:) Where did we join the gym? YMCA of course!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Benefits:</div>

I am personally looking forward to the FREE group exercise classes and trying Zumba! Back in the ole' college days I loved to go out with the girls dancing...so yes I am going to try to relive my young adult life while breaking a sweat. Plus the FREE Childcare makes it so easy!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Discounted programs such as swim lessons and soccer for ages starting at 3 years old make it perfect for my family. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now on to the Good Stuff! Since I am joining the gym and have typically done my posting in the morning, I had to do a little reflecting. Decided to switch my weigh-ins to Wednesday to join some other lovely ladies during the week. Sometimes less is more = Post less yet have more meaty bloggy post. Sounds like a winner? </div>
