Hello, I'm new but I love the accountability. I recently changed my diet and with working out, I am feeling much better. Today's workout, 1 hr. workout videos and a lifting routine.

1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

Job 1:21
'. . .Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.'
Stella was extremely frustrated. She had worked so hard to lose weight. She had done a great job, but now it was even harder to keep it off. She felt she was doing a good job of eating the right foods in small quantities, but when she'd step on the scales, she would find her weight creeping up. She always thought that once she got her weight down, everything would be easy. Boy, was that false! Weight-watching was a full-time job! Stella used to pray for God to keep her in line, but now the prayers were needed all the time. It just went to prove that nothing could be taken for granted. Good things don't come easy, but they're still worth having.
Today's thought: Lord, give me strength, but take my weight problem!
Good morning! Fascinated, welcome to the group! Had breakfast. Will put a load of laundry in the washer and then will go for a power walk and run errands. 😁🦃😷🍁
Good evening! Yangtzer, thanks! One of the nurses from my doctor’s office called this afternoon to let me know that he had reviewed the results of the blood work. She said that she results were within normal limits. I told her that I got the email from the hospital and read the results. Power walked to and home from supper tonight. Ran errands on the way home 😷🍁😁🦃
Welcome FascinatedByLife. Sometimes I solely don't log in because my computer is so slow to start but I really want to try posting every day like I used to. The accountability is good.
Still 189 today, yesterday was very close to 1500 calories (went over by a few midnight spoonfuls of mint chocolate chip ice cream). Still 189 after a few days because I had dinner and wine with my mom Wednesday and went out to dinner Thursday to pay back a friend for driving me to Pittsburgh this week for a meeting and ate a lot of lobster, pasta, and bread. But I'm sure I'll be at 188 at least by the end of my three day weekend. Counting calories again has been more satisfying than my previous austere diet of mainly protein and vegetables, because I get to eat bread again which I love. Started the day today with an egg and cheese on toast (delicious), and am already at around 500 cal, but if I do three 500 cal meals a day it'll work out, at least initially until I lose more weight and have to cut the cals to keep losing. I'll probably have a turkey sandwich for lunch and maybe salmon or shrimp and vegetables for dinner. Only problem is I found if I eat dinner at 4PM I'm starving again by 7 or 8 when I try to sleep. Hence the ice cream...Happy 11/11 everyone, make a wish.
I was tired and didn't post last night. Food was on plan but no exercise because I was busy.

Matthew 13:44
'Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.'
Kris would give anything to be thin again. She was willing to diet, she was willing to exercise, she was willing to try anything. Following a number of traumatic experiences in her life, she had let herself go, but now she regretted it with all her heart. Earnestly she began to pray to God. Within a few weeks, her dieting was beginning to pay off. Delighted with the results, she doubled her efforts, with her doctor's permission, and devoted herself to her diet, body, mind, and soul. For the first time in years, she found herself happy and content. The joy she found was a blessed gift from God.
Today's thought: I'm looking for little victories to keep me dieting!
