DAY 4- EYE of the TIGER BABY!

Day 4 and I am picking up steam. I must say that eating every 3 instead of every 2 hours has been a huge help. My body can actually speak to me know- (I mean tell me when its hungry,etc). So I am less tired (probably because I went in a little later to work so I could get more rest).

Dinner tonight was delicious for a change. Don't get me wrong- it was the same thing I was supposed to be eating but prepared differently. Yummy! I forgot food could taste good.

So today at work I talked to one of my female co-workers about my endeavor to go from fat-2-Phat. We were discussing how Abba Father had been talking to me about the fact that this is an answer to my prayers just not the one I would have chosen. Because God knows what I need better than I do. So I told her how I thought I would probably learn things from this I had not anticipated learning.

For example, I say God I want to lose weight- I expect the result to be that I go on a fad quickie diet and it actually work . God hears my prayers and knows that a fad diet or anything other than this kind of weight loss plan isn't going to work for me in the long run. He in his infinite love and wisdom provides this knowing it will help me lose weight, become more confident, help my daughter in the future. All of those are great but God is also teaching me commitment and discipline.

HIGH POINT: Well, Dawn (the lady at work) said I was onto something but had missed a big lesson that God was trying to teach me- bringing my body into submission to his will. In doing so He was teaching me obedience. WOW!! Light Bulb went off! God has great plans for me. Plans to prosper me and not to harm me. Leave it to Yahweh. Oh, how much he loves me.

LOW POINT: Waking up this morning almost unable to move.

Well, today was really positive overall. I think I might make it. Thanks for the support ladies.
