I very often find myself surrounded by people who encourage me and want me to do well. My walks in the park often consisted of many breaks on the bench. The last time we went walking, my friend told me, “Carolyn, no breaks!” As we watched some jog and run past us and aspiring to get to that fitness level, I told her that we would see. Little did I know that my son would agree with her and force me to walk a few times around without sitting down…at all!
After marching up one incline and down another I eyed a bench and was just about to have a seat when my son grabbed my arm and said, “Mom no breaks”. After I jokingly called him a traitor and told him to have my friend make him his grilled cheese sandwich, he turned around looked at me and said, “Mom you can do it…The Lord is with you”. And apparently He is, because I did. I love my little trainers. After my shower I thought about Joshua entering the Promised Land and smiled.
Speaking of Joshua let me introduce you to my trainer. His name is Joshua Stroud. When you want the best results, you look for the best people in their field. Joshua is my gentle giant. He is my big trainer and in charge of transforming my body with the help of the Holy Spirit. I am more than certain that I will reach my weight loss and maintenance goals with the encouragement and expertise that I have on my team!
