Hi All!
Mar 10, 2011
Things have been going well for me. I've been more consistent with working out. Just this week I've been more consistent with my eating. During the weekend, I started eating cookies and other not so good snacks. I didn't like what I was doing, but I haven't given up. This is the rest of my life and I have to learn how to deal with eating junk and then getting it back together. Thank God I didn't rest in misery and continue to eat junk for weeks on end (this is what I would have done in the past).
This is not an easy journey, but it is worth all the effort. I feel better now than I have in my entire life; I even look better. I actually take time to look pretty (something I didn't do in the past). I'm enjoying buying clothes and shoes. I'm really liking the person I'm transforming into. God please just give me what I need to continue this journey and to live a life that pleases you. I know you are always with me Lord!!!! There is no way I would have gotten this far without you.

As you can probably tell, I'm doing a lot better today. I think my main problem was the lack of carbs in my diet. I've been eating low carb and I think I over did it a bit. I've been exercising like crazy and I'm not eating enough to account for the energy I'm using. I'm glad I'm listening to my body and making the needed changes to feel better. Thank you Lord!!!!

This is Rough:(
Feb 24, 2011
I'm sitting here and I want to cry. I've been feeling like this since yesterday. I wish this feeling would go away. I really have nothing to cry about. I'm healthy, my family is healthy, I have a job, a home, and love; but I'm still having issues. I wish I could go home, but I'd just be getting in the bed and that is no good. I'm so filled up with emotion right now. Lord please help me to feel better. I need your healing power to fill me....please Lord!

Evening of Issues!
Feb 24, 2011
I've had a very good week with exercise and eating. It was my son's birthday yesterday and I had a piece of cake (it didn't taste that good). I worked out in the morning and in the evening, so it was ok to have the dessert. I had a great eating day today, so I'm shocked to find myself wanting the cake this evening (especially since it didn't taste that good). I'm so upset right now. I'm crying and frustrated with myself. What I want is cookies, but they are no good for me. I thought about asking one of my kids to go to the store and get me the cookies, but it's not the right thing for me to do. This is so destructive! Lord this is so hard for me. I hate going through this!!!! I wish I didn't think about food so much. Lord please help me through this evening. I'm not going to make it without you.

Good Morning!
Feb 21, 2011
What a wonderful morning this is! I got a chance to work out with my husband. I really pushed myself today. It was so nice being with him and not thinking negative thoughts. Thank you Lord for working in our marriage. Trusting in God's plan is not always easy, but when I do it myself I always make a mess. Thank you for being so patient with me Lord! Thank you Lord for helping me stay on track with my eating the past few days.

Well today I did Basic Training this morning. This evening I went to Danceworks. I can't believe how much energy I had during the class this evening. I was so much more active than I was in the past. I can't believe this, because this was the second time I exercised today. I've really come a long way. Thank you Lord for so many blessings.
I'm going to continue to push my body so I can lose these remaining 40 lbs. I know some people think I don't need to lose any more weight, but I want to be smaller.

Stuck!
Feb 15, 2011
I've been stuck this last year between 168 and 185. I want to be in the 160s, but I keep sabotaging my progress. I get anxious or upset and I eat things I shouldn't eat. I have to figure out what I'm afraid of. I have to figure out why I keep doing this to myself. I should be working out in the morning, but I don't want. That is crazy! I have to stop being afraid and do what the Lord has given me the ability to accomplish.

Yeah!!!

Well thanks to God I made it through last night without eating cookies or other snacks:) I did not think it was possible, but it happened. Lord give me stregth to endure more temptations.
I didn't workout this morning, but I went to Zumba this evening. I'm so glad I did. I ate chili for dinner again (minus a lot of beans) and worked out 2 hrs later. I started to get so queasy during the class. That has never happened to me before. At the end of class, I almost threw up. I'm going to have to watch what I eat before I workout in the future. I wonder what kind of exercise I will do tomorrow.

Cravings!!!!

Boy am I having a difficult time tonight...I want to eat something sweet so bad. I'm a good cook, so I've been thinking about making oatmeal raisin cookies. Instead of doing it I juiced a half a grapefruit and added some sweetener and water to it. After that, I had some hot green tea. I'm glad I didn't make the cookies, but I was so close. Now I'm hungry and I don't know what to eat. I know nuts would be the best thing for me to eat, but I want something different. I'm glad I didn't buy snack foods, because I would be eating those foods right now.

Who am I?
Feb 08, 2011
I know that is a weird title, but really, who am I? I'm not all I pretend to be:( In fact, it seems like a big lie. Do I really love myself like I should? The Lord made me wonderful, but I don't really believe it:( I question my ability when the Lord has given me everything I need to be successful. I just don't trust in the ability the Lord has given me. I seek acceptance from others instead of being content in the Lord. Why am I like this? Sometimes I'm really confident and other times I give my power away to those around me. Now I'm crying:( I want to change, but I don't know how. I can't keep going on like this. Lord how can I change so I can accept who I am right now and not seek acceptance and attention to fill a void only you can fill.
