Boot Camp starts tomorrow… (again)

In May of 08, Tina and I joined a gym as an anniversary gift to each other. (The traditional anniversary gift for year 6 was “iron” so we began “pumping iron” get it?)  The idea was to drop some weight and get back into shape.  Tina did beautifully and I was able to lose about 30lbs. thanks to some accountability and a lot of guidance from Kim Garcia (Kim2bfit.com) our personal trainer.

We’ve done one 12-week body challenge with her and then an outdoor co-ed boot camp.

Tomorrow I step-out on my own (Tina can’t do it due to scheduling) and get on the road toward my final 10lbs of weight loss to reach my goal weight.

This time it’s a 12-week body challenge/boot camp and I look forward to being stretched and challenged both physically and through my nutrition choices.  Help keep me accountable, and I’ll post my progress along the way!

I’m challenging myself as a leader to be in better physical shape.  Not only do I want to keep up with all of our awesome “go getter” volunteers at Crosspoint, I want to honor God with the body I’m given.  1 Corinthians 6:19-20 talks about how my body is a temple of the Holy Spirit (another gift from God)… I’m carrying some precious cargo and God’s not through with me yet so I need to up the maintenance on this temple so that I have no excuse to live the life He’s calling me to live.
