"And I press on, towards the prize which has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus"
Good morning everyone!! I know, its been a million years since I have been able to write an entire post and really get into whats been going on. I decided to take some time today to do it. I have so much to say to you all!! I have missed you terribly. I found such inspiration and love here, and now that I cannot get on everyday, I feel kind of alone sometimes. I do post daily on my instagram and I post on facebook, but it isnt the same. The people here are all facing the same things, the same struggles. We may not all weight the same, some have more to lose, some have less to lose, some want to gain, but we are all struggling towards a goal. Those of you in the blue line, CONGRATS!!!!! I am in the yellow, 93ish pounds to go, for my first goal. Once I hit that, I am going to readjust and see where I want to be. Ideally, 195-200, which seems doable for my frame. I am Scandinavian, 56% Norther Norwegian...I am a big girl, so I have to take that into account as well. I am excited though!!
I tried on my high school ring last night, it fell right off my hand. I am smaller now, than I was in high school!! I just cannot believe it. I dont feel smaller than I was then, but I can see it in how things fit, how I am able to move. I was a size 38/40 bottoms when I graduated. I had trouble walking up the stairs to get my diploma. I am a size 26/28 bottoms right now. I still wear my 40s, but they are tied on tight with a cord. I have a belt, but it makes the zipper part stick out too far. I just cannot see spending a bunch on new clothes when I am not finished yet. I have checked the goodwills and local thrift stores, but none have my size. Its frustrating, but a good kind of frustrating. I am happier than I have been in so long. Life throws crap at you that you dont expect, that hurts, that isnt what you wanted, but you have to make the choice to smile in the face of struggle. Things will always work out in the end, you just have to keep pressing forward.
Today I will pray for guidance on my journey, patience, and love. I will pray that my heart is full of love to share with others, that I am a blessing to all those I meet. I pray that we all have continued success on our path, and for those that are struggling, I pray the Lord lifts them out of their pits and sets them on firm, solid ground. I pray love find each and every one of you, wherever you may be. I pray for strength, healing, and most of all, peace. In Jesus name, Amen!!
I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday!! Keep pressing forward, because every step, even the small ones, are steps that you no longer have to make. Be strong, be kind, be courageous!! Love you all!!!
