Can you believe it January is more than half over. They say it takes 6 weeks to form a habit so for those who started on the first, your more than half way there. This is my eighth week and I think it just really kicked in for me this week. I feel really strong now. I know I am going to do it this time. I feel like I did when I lost 190 back in 91-93. I think the only big reason I put 100 of that back on was because of a drastic life style change when I broke my back. I think now when I lose it I will be able to keep it off. I am at a desk job and you can't get much more sedentary than that so I know what needs to be done to keep it off there is no surpizes.
Devotion
A friend of mine played basketball in high school. He did everything he could to become the best player he could be. He worked with the coach every day. He respected the coach and did everything the coach told him, in order to please him. His hard work paid off He starred on the team, and when he graduated, the coach told him he was the finest player he had ever had the privilege of coaching. Are we doing everything we can to please God by being the Best people we can be? When we diet, we do God honor, and He will be faithful to honor us in return. if we ignore our bodies the gift that God gave us, then we show contempt for God, and He will lose respect for us.
Today's thought: Today I will do everything I can to please God!
