What it was time to change...


In the last two months I have pretty much lost no weight... maybe 1-2 pounds. In the last week I lost 2.6 pounds! Want to know what my big change was? (It's really no secret!) MY ATTITUDE!

I confess that I've been very discouraged and whiny lately. Tired of logging. Tired of going to the gym late at night after a long day. Me. Me. Me. Last weekend I went to see Tobymac two times and I caught a fire! (Youtube "Catch a Fire" by Tobymac if you have a chance!) Not only by his words and praise and worship, but also through conversations with friends has my attitude dramatically changed. I'll talk more about that in a moment.

Then the picture on the right was taken with local radio personality and friend Erin Branham (shine fm, www.wrbs.com... you can stream it on the internet and stream it live). She later paired it up with an older picture and posted it on her facebook while. Many likes and kind comments later I was an emotional wreck, but in a good way.

I realize that his journey is not MY journey it is HIS journey. That was my focus for the first year and I some how lost focus. Now that I've given it back to God it is in much better hands! 85.8 pounds down and 14.2 more to go! He will get me there!

What is it in your life that you have a bad attitude about that you need to change?
