I exercised,
I cooked,
I cleaned,
I talked on the phone,
and then I got a cal from sister in law, the one that her husband just passed away. She asked us -dh and me-to come for supper, I told her we would. So off we go and the place where she worked had prepared a huge (really really huge) meal for her and brought it to her. Fried chicken a big ham big pot of southern butter beans, a crock pot full of mac and cheese and biscuits, and desserts, and on and on and on. Eating like that I am never going to lose weight.
When we went to leave she asked us to pray with her and we did. I could feel the Lord there. I asked Gods protection on her, there is a family member that is already trying to cause problems.
And that was my day.
Storms are doing damage in the mid USA continue to pray for those people.
This is a beautiful song, I hope it is on Utube,
THE ANCHOR HOLDS
i have journeyed
through the long dark night
out on the open sea
by faith alone
sight unknown
and yet his eyes were watching me
CHORUS
the anchor holds
though the ship is battered
the anchor holds
though the sails are torn
i have fallen on my knees
as i faced the raging seas
the anchor holds
in spite of the storm
i've had visions
i've had dreams
i've even held them in my hand
but i never knew
they would slip right through
like they were only grains of sand
CHORUS
i have been young
but i am older now
and there has been beauty these eyes have seen
but it was in the night
through the storms of my life
ohh thats where God proved his love to me
May the Lord keep you safe

It's tough to be in situations like you were in at supper, where there's just a ton of food. I probably would've had all of the above! But that's in the past now, Joy. You have the knowledge and power to make the best choices. And the best thing for weight loss that you can do right now is move on!
