I will NOT be discouraged!

I had my evaluation with my fitness trainer this morning at the gym I go to. Not good. I went up 5 pounds since I joined in October. :( That’s only three months ago! Sure, this a bad time of season, being sick, kids sick, Thanksgiving and Christmas, blah, blah, blah. Excuses, excuses. Truth is, I have made some poor choices when it comes to food and exercise and more importantly my relationship with God in regards to my addiction where food is concerned.
But I’m back on! I’m NOT gonna let this hold me down. It’s a brand new year. It’s a brand new day. Everyday is a brand new day. Thank you Lord for always being there when I fall. Waiting with arms open wide for me to come back to You. For loving me, just the way I am. For showing me that Your ways are always better than mine. For everything You are.

"I have made some poor choices when it comes to food and exercise and more importantly my relationship with God in regards to my addiction where food is concerned."
this was the turning point for me. it's not about a diet... it's not about losing weight... it's about Him!!
my thoughts are with you.... i know it's a daily thing... daily struggle. supporting you all the way.
rob bell has some AMAZING teachings on this very thing - three in all - you can download them at the mars hill website. they're in the archives, but it's only a dollar to download the mp3. TOTALLY worth it! they're under, food. it was such a help for me in switching my stinkin' thinkin'.....
anyway, YOU CAN DO IT!!! YOU'RE WORTH IT! YOU'RE VALUABLE! HE LOVES YOU!!!
Thanks guys!
Candace, your book and your teachings have been life-changing for me. Thank you for your love and friendship.
and, Darla, your blog has been extremely encouraging. It's helping me stay motivated, so thank you and thanks for the tips on Rob Bell. I definitely check it out!
love you Trace...you can do it!
Doesn't matter about the choices you've already made, it IS about the choices you make today, and you ARE making good choices. Jesus is our help in times of trouble, and we have to continue to lean on him together! Every day is a new day, and I count on the fact that today just may be the day that I finally turn my will over to Him. I think it is about time I downloaded those Rob Bell MP3's, and got seriously back into the Word's teachings on all of this. Sometimes a new perspective on an old thing...
