I tried to post this morning but my computer got messed up. I lost 4 lbs in one day, granted the weight on the scale still is over 200, 202 to be exact
I am actually starting to like grapefruit juice, I know that helped me lose some of this water weight yesterday. Tomorrow I hit the gym to get rid of the biscuit and fudge weight :P I am still feeling like I have a cold so we'll see how long I last, I am going to bed again early tonight.
Church was great today, I got a good amount of rest. Jana took my picture tonight, its not the 174 chickie I was a few months ago, but yanoo I am SO much happier.
There are a few more pounds, but man there is so much more hope and happiness. I was trying to lose more than weight last year, trying to shed my husband and marriage thinking that there was no way that God could put it back together. Now I stand there with a little ring on my finger to remind me that I said my vows not only to my husband, but also to God. God will honor those vows and expects me to do so as well. I know that with God, ALL things are possible! The change in Michael is amazing, and I know God is working on everyone involved in this situation. God has healed the broken relationships between Michael's family and me, they have blessed me so much! When I was getting ready to lie down for a nap today I decided to read a few verses. The first one I came to was all I need to know, for my weight loss, for our marriage being restored, for everything that seems like a huge mountain in my life...
Genesis 18:14 Is any thing too hard for the Lord?
I think God let me lose the weight my way and showed me that a number on a scale wasnt going to ever do it for me. Then when God made it very clear that I needed to trust him, I realised that I really can do nothing on my own. I wish I could measure the change He has brought in me since April, but I feel so content, even at 202. Not to say that I am content to stay there, but I dont have that nagging doubt about whether or not the weight will come off, I know it will. I am not doing this alone!
