Good Morning

Jan 30, 2013

And it IS a good morning...filled with all the hope and promise of a new day.

I'm very proud of myself, not necessarily for how I did yesterday on the '7' challenge, but more how God is working in me through this challenge. He says for us not to worry about what we will eat. So I'm not. I'm trusting in Him.

Last night my husband and I went to the grocery store after a long church night (which was amazing, but I'll save that for another post), and I picked up things that are on my list. We didn't get home until about 9:30, which is really too late for either of us to eat dinner (he's a diabetic and tries not to eat so late), but you know--life lived on life's terms doesn't always go as planned.  I will need to plan better, as one of the parts of the '7' challenge is not to eat after 7 PM (and as we all know, that has a LOT of benefits). Anyway, dinner last night was rotisserie chicken, whole wheat bread (which my teenage daughter wanted to try, and then after wrinkling her nose at it came back and stole the rest of it), and a bit of sharp cheddar cheese.

Breakfast this morning is sharp cheddar cheese and a Fuji apple. For snacks and lunch I brought string cheese, whole wheat bread, and a banana.

Yesterday I texted about 10 different people and asked them to pray for me during this time. The outpouring of support and encouragement has been overwhelming. Even better, my husband is 150% behind me on this. I'm just taking it one day at a time...and if I need to, I'll do one hour at a time. If anyone wants to jump on board with me, please let me know! I'll be your number one cheerleader!

Love to all--
