I have been contemplating starting a blog for months now but I wasn't sure of what to write about. After a trip to the doctor this week and church service today I decided that I would use this blog to discuss my battle with weight. and how God is using it to draw me closer to Him.
It was very fitting that PK talked about Philippians 4:13 today. I have struggled with my weight my entire my life and this week my doctor informed me that I had no choice but to make a life style change. Like everyone else who has struggled with weight my first thought was, "yeah right here we go again, another diet, another failed attempt where I end up heavier than I started." That thought quickly left my mind though when I stopped and realized that I have a wonderful doctor who is a man of God who cares enough about me to want to help make me healthier so I can live a better and longer life.
So tomorrow I start a new lifestyle. I will be changing my eating habits sticking strictly to the doctors orders and exercising on a regular basis again sticking to the doctors orders. I will be keeping track of my progress and my journey with God along the way. I really excited to see what God is going to do in my life and in the lives of those around me. I have attempted to lose weight several times and have failed. However, I am determined to lose weight with the support of my family and friends and the strength of my God! I hope you will embark upon the journey with me and pray for me as I go along and I look forward to seeing what God has store!
I realized today that I can and I will do this through Christ who strengthens me!

I am so proud of you for doing this. With God's help I'll be right beside you the whole way. It's funny how PK's sermons hit me right square between the eyes nearly every Sunday. Apparently I'm not the only one! :)
