So, I am a little sad because today was my last First place class for this year. We now have 5 weeks to keep our act together before we meet again. Honestly, I am pretty nervous, but I have set a goal and I am going to stay positive about it! So to wrap up this round of First place I am down a size, I feel better, I guess I look better, and I not only got to my goal, but went over it. My little goal back in September was to drop 15 pounds. PRAISE JESUS, I am down 24lbs! I started at 206 and am now down to 182! Have I mentioned yet that I am so excited and grateful to be able to say that. My next goal is to be 175 when we get started again. So, 7 pounds in about 5 weeks. It sounds do-able, but we will see if I can handle Christmas and all it's yumminess, but really, this Holiday is about the Savior of the World not food. How sad that I am so scared that I will gain weight when really I need to just focus on Jesus and the Joy he has brought to my life and the lives of people around me.
Father God, Please focus my eyes on you in the weeks that are coming. Help me to be extra mindful of the decisions I make and help me to not put food as the heart of any celebration. This is your Birthday and it is a joy that can last forever. Sweets and food only last for the moment, but you are good and satisfying forever. Help me focus on you my Beautiful Lord!!!! Amen
