Pizza on the Floor...Yum!!!

Pizza on the Floor
Hey today's blog will be a little embarrassing for me but I feel it is important to get this out to you so you can see how bad my food addiction was and to give you hope that loosing weight can be done! You can see the pictures, past and present with your own eyes.

I traveled with a teen ministry for many years, I was the director. We were very popular and even on TV. So the reason I tell you this is because you can see I wasn't a homeless, starving person standing on the side of the road. I do pray for those people though. My heart is burden for them.

We stopped to get pizza on the go because we were stretch for time. We had the paper plates and the girls passed me a piece of pizza so I could eat while I was driving. I had to brake and the pizza, which was ham and cheese pizza, slid off the plate onto the floor.

I could have asked for another piece but I didn't. I had it in my mind that they wouldn't eat all the pizza and I could finish it all off after I took them home. The rest of the pizza would be mine! All mine!

So when I thought it was clear and they were not looking, I picked up the pizza off the dirty van floor and slipped back on the plate. Surely none of the 7 girls seen me to do this. I kept looking in the rear view mirror all this time trying to make sure it was clear to pick up that pizza. I wonder if any of them seen me do this.

So after a few minutes, you guess it. I ate the dirty, van floor, pizza slice. Awful, huh? The addiction was so bad I couldn't let that pizza go to waste. Sad.

To loose weight I feel it is very important to face your past. You have to see where the problem is. I believe in praying to God for help because my addiction I felt was no different than smoking. You need self control and determination to do it. You need to do this for yourself.

The problem with this pizza story is that I really don't care for pizza. I can live without it. I just couldn't let it go to waste.

Good luck out there.
In Jesus,
Ruthie
