Hello. It's me again. Still fighting this battle called obesity. Still wishing when I look in the mirror that I was thin. Still wanting to eat and yet be thin. Still not wanting to discipline myself to do the work.
Yesterday I visited my favorite counselor. Tried to dodge the work that needs to be done to be healthy. Tried to make excuses as to why this will never work. Tried to use my age as a factor.
She listened and then told me to roll up my sleeves. She encouraged me. Got me to face my demons. She gave me tools and showed me how to use them. She affirmed me and gave me hope.
Today is the first day after that session. As I sift through the anger and fatigue of facing yet more weight-related challenges, I feel refreshed to begin again.
Dear Lord, continue to walk beside me as you always have. Give me strength and courage to be healthy. Remind me that you have created me for a purpose. Give me a hope and a future. Amen
