Well, it's a new day. Just got my husbands outfit ironed, his lunch packed with a little note tucked under his sandwich :), and helped him off to work. I am trying to get a new mindset today. I have been out of this for so long. Almost a week now of not caring about my diet. My scale is broken so I think that is contributing. I have this mindset that's like "well, I cant see my actual weight anyway so I might as well eat like a cow?" Totally makes sense. Anyway, I want to get back. I am in a wedding in about 3 weeks. That is enough time to feel better about myself. I think Im going to get a new scale today. I need some motivation and accountability. Although Im really going to miss the numbers this broken scale is giving me. Somedays its 124, some 126. Haha which is also contributing to me not caring. I mean I know the scale isnt right but for some reason it makes me feel justified to eat poorly. Oh well. I cant change the past but I can change how I act in the future. Beginning today. Thank you all for your encouragement and motivation. It is much appreciated. I hope you all have a great day!

Good luck! I love the positive attitude this morning :) Have you ever tried planning your meals in advance for what you will eat that day? (Maybe not EXACTLY what you'll eat... leave wiggle room to select the fruit and veggie of your choice or something). I personally don't do this, but I do have a lot of "go to" meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner that I know are good options, don't require me to think much for when I'm in a hurry and just ready to eat, and that I typically keep the stuff I'd need for it on hand!

You are on the right track...you recognize what you need to do and that is so important! You might want to take your measurements so that you don't always have to rely on the numbers on a scale. They don't always reflect complete truth. Just a thought. Have a blessed and successful day!!

Best of luck! It's great to read the motivating words. Looking forward to reading about your new scale tomorrow. :) Personally, I never thought I'd be giddy about buying a new scale, but I did a few months back and I loved it. lol. What a nerd... hahaha... :)

Yes, let us know what you get, because I am looking for the perfect scale also - someone gave me a recommendation but I never followed through.

We recently got the "Weight Watchers® WW78 by Conair Glass Body Fat Scale Black & Chrome" as Amazon lists it. It is a great scale for the consistency and features and the price is oh so right! - David

Christians and non-Christians alike in today's developed nations, as well as encourage you to reap the wonderful whole-person benefits of good nutrition. Good food and drink will impact your whole being--body, soul, and spirit. So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God... Have a wonderful day and make it healthy...
