I didn't get to weigh in last night.
Matt & I went to the Chris Tomlin concert & had to leave before my meeting.
So...this is the first week I haven't weighed in.
If I'm truly being honest I'm pretty sure I didn't lose any this week...
But I am looking forward to next week & having AMAZING results.
Do you ever feel like an Isrealite wandering in the desert for 40 years?
I do.
I am 38 years old...closing in on 39...so 40 years is realistic to me. If God gives
me 40 more years on this earth...I don't want to spend it wandering in the desert. Instead I desire to head straight to the Promise Land of freedom
& truly depend on God to fill me. Asking God to be my daily portion.
I have to keep in mind my ultimate goal of this journey...isn't about my size,
how my jeans fit, my weight, but to crave Jesus & His truths & as the filler
of my heart. Nothing else.
It is getting easier to say NO to somethings I wasn't able to before. Though
that stinking Key Lime pie that was left at my house after small group
became an obsession to me. Why oh Why do I love sweets so much. I ate
a piece for the first 3 days then said...NO MORE. & haven't touched it since.
I haven't tracked my points as well this week...gonna get back on top of that too.
Accountability...Oh how I need it.
Do you have any tips...suggestions this week for me?
I have thought about posting some recipes & some daily food charts to help
give you some ideas of what I eat. What do you think?
I would love sharing food tips :) We have a healthy eaters cook book, and we have been making wonderful recipes out of there! We had pork w/glazed onions the other night, and it was like 180 calories! I am sure I still need help on portion control, but at least I am headed in the right direction! I am sure it was amazing seeing Chris Tomlin!!
ReplyDeleteSteph, Kyle started eating no carbs, no sugar and lots of veggies and protein and lost 8 lbs in 9 days. Have you ever tried this? Its mostly just not eating bread and sweets and replacing snacks with fruit (sweet) and nuts. And, an ounce of dark chocolate if a sweet is a mut. I love food, so I can totally understand, its hard when you crave sweets, like we do. I still believe in the true saying - Just move more, eat less, then you can have whatever you want (small portions) I will pray for you to resist.
