Happy Monday morning everyone

I went on a diet and this time I did things a little different-I started dieting on Sat.  Now really have you ever heard of anyone starting a diet on a Sat.  Really????  But I knew that I wanted to get some kind aof control and my dd wanted to go on a diet also and she started this morning----but I know me and I knew if I waited until Monday that I would have the mindset of "I'm going on a diet so I better eat all of my favorite foods before Monday."

So two days under the diet belt and it is going really good.  

I started this diet a little different too-a very severe low carb fast almost--mostly eggs and pork and beef.  Last night I had a small salad.  Today I will add another low carb veggie.  I feel good and positive about what I am doing and I know that as long as I keep a positive attitude about what I am doing I have a better chance of success.

My son in law is still coming and staying hour after hour after hour.  I really am tired of it-about 3 weeks ago I told him that when he comes he needs to leave after an hour or two and not come every day.  He rolled his eyes at me and said he came to see his wife and son. Rolling your eyes at me does not make me happy and I told him that if she wanted to be with him she would not be at my house and heneeded to leave.  He had soemthing in his hands and he thru it down on the floor and told baby to get out of his way he was leaving because I was too controlling.   I am stressed to the point of screaming.  It did not do any good at all, he is still coming and staying and staying.

Lets see,  I have been sick with a terrible sinus infection but I think I am on the way to getting better.

I feel almost hypocritical posting a bible verse considering how I am feeling about son in law coming .
but this one keeps coming into my mid so here it is.


King James Bible
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.


Have a wonderful day
God bless you

Hi remember me?

When was the last time I posted-I should have looked oh well


I finally was able to go to the dr and get my synthyroid started back up how ever the damage was done to my weight. The month before I went to my dr.  I gained 18 pounds I excercised every day and I kept my calories down around 1800 a day, how does a person gain weight like that trying so hard to lose?  thyroid messed up big time.  I had to have a blood test down and sure enough the number was high.  She called in a higher dosage than I had before.  As of now I have lost 4 pounds doing about the same thing that I was doing the month I gained 18 pounds.

My weight since I had to stop the pills has risen from 175 to 216 as of this morning .  It really scared me to gain so much so quickly and I can only praise the Lord for changing our financial circumstances so that I could go back to the dr. 

Daughter is still at my house and I really think she is here to stay.  

I have been neglecting everyones blog and I tried to catch up on everyone today.  I see that many of you are struggling just like I am.  I wish OH I DO WISH that I could make it easy for all of us.  

I still exercise every day

I am halping out more and more at the food bank with all the needy people in our area we are going twice a week to pick up food.  I am the healthiest person there so I do most of the heavylifting.  The way I look at it is, those two days are my days that I set aside for my "weight workout"  I have to lift boxes and some of them weigh as much as 45-50 pounds. 

Deb you and Josie write so very eloquently and I enjoy your posts a lot.   I have missed you both so much and I did not realize how much until I popped in today and started trying to catch up .  

IF YOU PRAY THAT GOD WILL MOVE A
MOUNTAIN AND HE DOESN'T OR YOU HAVE THE
FAITH TO TELL A MOUNTAIN TO MOVE
AND IT WOUN'T, ASSUME THAT CHRIST WANTS
 YOU TO CLIMB IT INSTEAD AND SEE HIM
TRANSFIGURED.  EITHER WAY, THE
MOUNTAIN IS UNDER YOUR FEET.
