It's been a long time since I posted, 11 days to be exact. I'm disappointed in some things, but ok with some others. Disappointed that I have turned to food in my times of anxiety and exhaustion in the last week especially. My family came down with a SEVERE stomach flu beginning Monday. It is now Saturday night, and 1 of the 4 that got it is still not quite right. So when I was tired, I ate, and when I was scared for them and the dehydration, I ate. Oh I kept with my good diet alright, but added in!! I added chocolate cake, Twizzlers, cookies, chips and a pop. Not all in the same day, but still - SO WRONG! And I had zero time and energy to walk. All in all I'd say this was a bad week.
The good news...This is a journey. That's all it is. A journey. A friend told me that tonight, and I tried to one up her and embellish it by making it sound like something greater than a journey, but I couldn't! That's just what it is. I am walking along the way, down the path to a healthy lifestyle, and when I screw up and waiver off, I just get back on and go straight again.
So, Lord, here I am. Help me to remember that none of the extra calories and unhealthy choices I made helped me get through this week. It was all you. ALL you. Forgive me for making the choices I did. I want to be healthy for Your glory, for my family, for me! Hang in there with me.
