Lost

Hi!!  I am still here and still fighting.  I'm sorry to anyone who has been checking and hasn't found me for awhile.  I have blogs ready to post, I just have to sit down to type them.  But I wanted to check in the mean time and be honest.

I am struggling!  My husband and I took a much needed and long overdo trip away to Pittsburgh 2 weekends ago.  I let myself go and enjoy the trip (food and all).  When it comes to motivation for me, once I lose it it takes awhile to get back.  So, sadly I must say that I am avoiding the scale for a couple weeks until I can get back on track.  I set this up for accountability; therefore, as hard as it is to admit....I have not been good with the diet/exercise program I set up for myself.

I'm trying really hard to get back on track and hope to be posting at least 2 blogs by the end of the weekend.  If it happens to cross your mind, please pray for some strength and motivation for me!

Thanks! :)

  1. We all make mistakes. Be willing to forgive yourself. Good job picking up where you left off. You can do this...and you will. I, as well, have not been as committed as I need to be. I am striving for the "lifestyle" balance. I don't want food to be an idol for me just as I don't want eating healthfully and exercising to be an idol either. I want it to be in the proper place/ priority. What is that? I am maintaining around a 6 to 7 pound loss, but want so much more. The problem is I need to be wanting GOD so much more. Lord, help my misplaced desires.

    ps. I've missed seeing you. I hope you are doing okay in other ways.

  2. Lifestyle balance...thats also a true challenge! As far as making idols out of healthy eating and exercising goes, I think thats one reason why I am enjoying this book. It helps me put things into perspective easier. I am placing God above everything....even food! I have really been trying to replace those thoughts of eating "junk" with prayers and praises to my Heavenly Father. Who by the way wants this for me more than anyone else! :)
