Let’s try this again . . . February 27, 2008

Okay, I’m going to start closely watching and greatly reducing my carbs . . . again . . . but this time I’m serious.  And that’s it, simply said . . . no guidelines, no personal rules, no lists, no tracking, nothing to cause more clutter than clarity . . . I’m just going to watch my carbs and take better care of this body that really doesn’t even belong to me.

Feel free to include me your prayers, though. (And if I don’t provide an update in a week or two, that means I lasted all of three days and you better call me out!!) 

I’m An Addict November 10, 2007

I’m a Carb Addict. Recently my friend Maurine let me borrow her book about being addicted to carbs.  I think the book was written for me.   And I’m going to share my journey through this fun season of letting go and letting God.

There’s a fine line between taking care of your body, looking nice, being healthy because its His temple and wanting to look like a magazine cover, get guys’ attention, and be beautiful in the World’s eyes.  God’s showed me how I used to be more on the World’s side and how unhealthy that can be mentally, physically, and spiritually.  Then I went through a period of lack of control which grew into an addiction.  30 lbs later, I’ve learned a lot and am ready to see what He really desires for me . . . which hopefully includes a reduction in pant size . . . more to come.
