Sometimes…

Sometimes I fear I’ll never reach my goal weight.
Sometimes I fear I will reach my goal but that I won’t be satisfied.
Sometimes I think I’ll never even reach my goal of 50 pounds.
Sometimes I think I’ll reach my goal and MORE.
Sometimes I think I’m fooling myself for thinking I could ever be smaller.
Sometimes I remember I’m foolish for caring so much about what other people think of me and my weight loss.
Sometimes I feel discouraged because my weight loss has been so slowly achieved.
Sometimes I am glad it’s taken me so long because the longer it takes, the longer I’m proving to myself that I can do this.
Sometimes I really need an extra push to work out.
Sometimes working out is all I want to do.
Sometimes all I want to do is eat whatever I want.
Sometimes all I want to do is say no to all that tempts me.
Sometimes I just want to quit.

But I ALWAYS know that in the midst of my doubts and uncertainties and ever-shifting emotions, my God is the same yesterday, today, and always, and His mercies are new every morning.

I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me!

  1. Well, I, for one, am impressed with your progress. I was thinking about you today. I only have about 15-20 lbs. I would really like to get off to be healthier, but I am too lazy to really tackle it, you know? I thought of you today and realized just how MUCH progress you’ve made! And it was an encouragement to me!Keep pressing on!
