Back

Thank You for visiting the Weight Loss Journey Page, This page well more like me (Laura) has had a few setbacks, and you will notice the difference right away, there are no longer any update buttons to click on, this page has been re-thought about, and how to make it more meaningful to anyone who is looking at it, I have decided to share my success and my failure's, the first thing we should get out it is not a failure but just a bump along the road, you know there are bumps sometimes we fall down, but we get back up and start over, and that is what I am doing, getting back up dusting myself off and starting over again, I no longer have a pre-set goal in mind, I am just going to say, I am happy if I loose 1 pound or 1/2 pound as long as it is off of my body. I am asking God to help me on my journey, and with his help I know that I can make it...

Dear God,

I admit that I have come to both love and hate the word "diet".
On the one hand, it represents hope for change.  On the other hand, it's like a sign flashing "Failure Ahead".

I don't want to simply embark on another faulty plan, Lord.
I want to embark on a journey with you that is lead by You and depends on your power.  I can do nothing on my own !

And I don't want to just punish and deprive myself,  You and I both know where that leads; to rebellion and failure. 

Show me the right path that will enable me to change.
Show me, as only You, who know me so intimately, can,  What woks for me, what is healthy for me.

I want to think of this venture in positive terms, Lord  Not that I am signing up to be miserable or in want.  I want to learn to redirect my thinking, to feed my body What it truly needs, when it truly needs it. 

And to feed my soul with the Bread of Life You
Today I place my Future, My Failures, and My Setback,
All of my hopes and plans into your hands.  There alone will I find meaning and true success in my life.

Amen
