Winning the Weight
Loss Battle
I have to say that success is sweet when it comes to this weight
loss battle.
This morning I noticed my clothes fitting better and I love
that feeling. And although the 10 pound weight loss was slow
in coming I’m thrilled that the scales have moved that
much in the past 7 weeks. Experts say that rate of 1-2 pounds
a weeks is just about perfect.
I do have to confess though, that I wish the process was a
bit more speedy. Patience and perseverance have never been my
personal strengths. But I think I’m beginning to catch
on to the importance of those qualities when it comes to losing
weight.
Galations 6:9 says, “Let us not become weary in doing
good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do
not give up.”
I hope that scripture will provide us all with some encouragement
when the scales seems stuck and that piece of chocolate cake
looks so good!
I hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July. Log
on to our discussion board to tell us how you're doing and
support other Christians in their "Fight to Be Fit."
