G'mornin Christy,

I have seen dogs do the exact same thing. It is funny the fisrt few times, but then becomes a nuisance (sp).

Sweetie, the # of pounds you lose and the speed at which you lose them are none of your freakin business. This is the crazy stuff that got us where we were in the first place. Our bodies are in some way predictable and other ways not predictable in the least.

We have to "always" remember that the weight, whether moving up or down, is a delayed reation to both our eating and our exercise. You and I both know you can't realistically control the consistancy of your weight loss. The longer you attempt to the more frustration and resentment builds up. In some ways, its just not ours to control.

Can we ever be satisfied to just do what we are supposed to do and let the results settle out as God would have it? Hmmm, thats a tough one for me.

The words "I deserve", trick me into thinking that I am in some agreement with God that if I starve myself to some degree and then I do the sacrafice of exercise, then "I deserve" a reward of massive pound loss NOW.

This kind of thinking is exactly opposite of where I know God wants me to be. Today I have the option to eat better and because of the weight loss, I can exercise like never before. What an AMAZING gift.

How about today, we agree to do what we can with this incredible gift we have been given and be grateful for whatever God would have the results be.

Much Love,

Craig
