The Choices

The Choices
Sometimes when I get up in the mornings I am dreading the choices I will have to make concerning what I will eat. This is when I am at home and the weekends are horrible! Since I am a homemaker, I work at home. So the food I am around is a 24/7 ordeal.

That is the first thing I think of. While I am writing this my stomach has a mind of its own and is saying, FEED ME!

To keep my mind off this nagging feeling of that I need to eat is just get occupied with something else. The computer is great because you can hunt up music and connect with friends. You can do research on weight loss.

I have an addiction to food and like any other addiction if it is within your reach, you are so tempted to partake of it.

If you have this addiction you can buy the good stuff instead of the chips and dessert cakes. This way it is not in your house. A person can only eat so many apples. They fill you up. If you are so hungry eat the good stuff. If you over eat apples you have ate a filling food. A good food.

A strong mind set is great in weight lost but if it takes a while for you to focus on your life style change you need to figure out ways to feed your food addictions without ruining your diet.

I know not to look too hard at the tempting food at the store. It is amazing to me that they have the Weight Watcher cookies by the little Debbies snack cakes. Temptation is everywhere! So I don’t want to bring it into my house. I choose the WW cookies, of course!

Weight loss can be managed, but you have to be a good manager. It is your job to manage your weight. Like any other job, you want to do the best you can do.

It can be done. I have faith in you!

In Jesus,
