I thought a good subject for me today is to talk about the struggles that I face on a daily basis:
I have a hard time believing that I will ever lose this weight and be healthy.
I have fears that if I do ever lose this weight I won't be happy with where I am at.
I struggle with simple food choices. If I eat alot at breakfast, I feel like I have blown it and allow myself to eat as much as I want for the rest of the day. In my mind I am thinking that I will control my eating the next day.
I wonder if I will ever get food out of my mind. Sometimes I feel like it is all that I think about.
I am so tired of these same struggles and I hate knowing that I have allowed the enemy to have a foot hold into my life.
Dear Heavenly father,
Forgive me for my doubts. I know that you are faithful and I need not doubt you. Lord help me to come to you when I am doubting. Help me to remember all of your promises. Lord, help me to get food out of my mind and help my focus to be on you. You are the one that substains me. Lord I ask that you be my nourishment. Lord draw me closer to you as I fall on my knees before you. I love you. Amen

Amen sister! I so relate to you about when I eat in a manner that is not the way I think I should have been eating my head gets all messed up and I throw the baby out with the bath water. When I am not "perfect", which we know there is no such thing, I am harder on myself than anyone can ever be. We will make it to our goal as long as we never give up trying. Some days we will be stronger than others. I think we can gleam a lot of strength from knowing that we are not alone! We are on a journey of self descovery and what does not kill us WILL make us stronger. I love you.
