I believe soon I will be meeting my new weight. I am excited because I am feeling good and I haven't looked like this in years. My aunt was here this past weekend and we had a great time laughing...but it was also cool for her to see the new me. I can't wait to get to my final goal and celebrate big!
Daily we're met with challenges. Yesterday was a tough day, I had a lot of emotions running around and I missed my grandparents a lot. Not sure what it was yesterday, but it was just tough. I felt like eat my way through a bag of M&M's but realized that wouldn't of solved anything, just the opposite. I will be honest, I still struggle when it comes to my emotions and food. The "old" me would of just cling to food and fill up on foods that I didn't need nor want to hide, bury or stuff my emotions deep so I wouldn't have to deal with them. Now that I have chosen to not deal with them that way, I actually have to face and deal...it's hard, but I'm doing it, without food.

Hey girl!!
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I have been on here.... did those 19 lbs just fly off of you or what?!!! Way to go!! I was thinking about you with Halloween and all of the "garb" that comes with it. I am sure there were tempting moments for you but it sounds like you "took the bull by the horns" and came out on top!! So cool :)
Satan is surely trying to get us with the hard times of being lonely for our grandparents. Weird how we are both battling that right now... thankful they are in heaven and we will see them again! Satan won't win if we don't let him, so stay strong sista and I will continue to pray!!
I can't wait to see you at Thanksgiving - it is going to be fun!! I can't believe that we are coming on the holidays already....somebody's bday is coming up!!
Love you, keep up the hard work!!! I read on you post something about lifelong friends.... I know God has someone planned for you. Right now, I think His plan is to bring you back to yourself so you can meet that special "one".... People are rarely comfortable in their own skin, but you are finding the real you and I think that is awesome!! So important!!!
Talk to you soon! Give Mookie big hugs and kisses for me!
Love ya,
Erin
Hey Erin,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your post! Your right, the 19 pounds did fly right off. It felt like I woke up one morning and they where gone. :) How are you guys doing with it? Can't wait to see everyone. Yeah Halloween wasn't as bad as what I thought, except the Twizzlers...but it was ok, got past it and realized it's not worth eating myself through life. HA.
I agree with you too that Satan is really trying to work into things in our lives, but yeah I'm not letting him. This time of year always seems hard because holidays where so big with our grandparents. But your right, we will see them again and that's the awesome part! Praying for you as well.
Looking forward to seeing you guys at Thanksgiving as well! It will be some good times. And yes...we both have b-day's coming up. I'm looking forward actually to turning 32. Not sure why, but I am. Maybe it's the whole new me thing as well. Moving past who I once was.
Love you too, thank you so much for the prayers, encouragement and prayers! Yes, life long friends...so thankful for the ones I have, but your right. I am praying that some how God has someone right for me and that I will be patient waiting. But I love His plan for me right now. :)
Love you, give the girls hugs from us and we will look forward to seeing you soon!
Love you,
Amanda
