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.

GOD BLESS

  1. Well, hi, JOy! I've been thinking of you. Just yesterday, as a matter of fact. I'm so glad you postted.

    I'm glad you got to the MDs. If you've been by my blog, you've seen that I've had a gain, too. Om pne month alone, I gained 12 pounds. Really, how does a person do that?

    Thank you so much for putting that quote at teh end of this post. I've never read it before and it really hit me. I read it twice and am going to copy it for myself.

    You know, I've been praying for a mountain to move. It never occurred to me that Christ might want me to CLIMB it...and then show me a miracle revelation of Himself at the top. What a breath-catching thought. Thank you!

  2. Joy! It's a great JOY to see a new post from you! I have missed you, but I had faith you would be back, especially after you said you would. I knew you wouldn't leave us hanging. I've been praying for you and your family, especially the grandson. Sounds like you're handling your medical situation with a lot of common sense, and I can't say I'd do the same, but I pray you keep the faith in all ways.

    I'm with Deb- I'd never read that quote or anything like it. Thank you for always posting something unique and inspirational. It's like your trademark.

    Love ya, sister!
