How appropriate... I haven't used my Daily Devotion For Dieters in a couple of days, and when I opened it up this morning the scripture for this morning is Proverbs 1:33 -

"But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil."

Amen, Amen, and Amen!

The words to reflect on this verse read:

Jesus faced many terrible experiences in His lifetime. The Bible tells of many incidents where crowds of people sought to kill our Lord. Whenever the pressures got too great, Jesus withdrew and spent time in prayer. That is an important lesson

The DEVIL is so busy tap dancing around me. He has tried to get into every aspect of my life and I wouldn't let him! First, he tried to meddle in my marriage, with my children, and as of lately my finances. My marriage was too strong; my children surrounded by love, but my finances, that's a whole another story! There was just too much room (not money ) for HIM to stick HIS greasy hands right in my pocket... Believe me when I say I have been in the midst of a trial for the past 7 months. I held it together pretty strongly up until half an hour ago. The last dance was just too...

I almost gave into some chocolate.

I almost believe I heard it whistle and saw it wink at me . (I not only had my two children today, but also my friend's two children. I took them to the movies and bought them candy.) I did give in to nuts and that's a no, no while on induction. I figured my system would recover much quicker with this type of S T R A Y. There was one net carb per serving and 1 (natural - still trying to justify it) sugar .
I do ask myself though, "when did I become so weak?"

I need to keep my eyes...

Figure26

I forgot how dedicated you must be when lo carbing and how restricted your new way of eating becomes.

Scarifice, commitment, scarifice, reward!
