REAL Week 558

REAL - Reduce stress Exercise Adequate sleep Lower caloric intake

What Navy SEALs are required to do to make it into BUD/S:
Right up front: Never in a million years could I do what is required. However, I needed to start somewhere. Considering how fit the SEALs are, I figured it was a good place to start. My pushups are against the wall.

Using 1, 2, and/or 4-lb weights:
PT ~ Physical therapy
UBP ~ Upper body exercises, pushups, and chair sits against the wall

SEALFit shared some good hints I want to learn and remember:

3: 1/2-mile walk PT UBP 0-lb x3 Stretch

4: 1-mile walk PT UBP 0-lb x3 1-lb x1 Stretch

5: Rest

Are you ready for Easter?

Celebrate with a story...

The Blessing Basket

The thirteenth novella in the series...

Welcome back to Holiday, USA, small town America, where nothing happens, except holidays... and a little romance, if the hero and heroine trust God.

Cici, Candy Crothers, lies to everyone, except her Holiday Diner boss, only because he informed her if she lied to him he'd fire her. She ran away from an ugly past and still worries it might catch up to her. Sharing her nightmares is nowhere on her list of things to do, ever.

Trace Brown left the Army honorably but not unscathed. Anger controls his life, holding him back from pretty much everything, including becoming a chef at Holiday Diner. The diner's head hostess intrigues him, but not enough to risk sharing his day-to-day battle with PTSD.

Nothing can drive God away. His hand is stretched out still. He is always there, waiting...

TBR

31. The Choice: Embrace the Possible, a memoir by Dr. Edith Eva Eger, is her story of surviving the Holocaust and learning to thrive. Her story is brutal and inspiring. I was ready to read it. I've a few things I still need to work through. I'm grateful she shared.

32. Falling for Centerfield (A Belltown Six Pack Novel 2) by Sophia Summer clean romance.

33. Her First Love (Southern Series 2) by Ginger Solomon Christian romance. Not an easy read, dealing with neglect and domestic abuse. For me, it was a painful, hopeful, and satisfying read.

34. Beauty Secrets of the Bible by Ginger Garrett. A good start on my research into learning to love my body. A long way to go but this got me started.

35. Crossfire (Saint Squad series) by Traci Hunter Abramson contemporary Christian suspense romance. Breathtaking. Love this series.
