What is a healthy dress size anyway? (274 hits)


I am so tired of dieting. Why did I ever think that my life had to be consumed with wathching what I eat? I don't believe God's plan for me is to count calories or points all day long. I have fluctuated with my weight since I was a child. It always seemed as if I was trying to accomplish a look that was other than my own. I have journaled for a long time and decided to put that information in a book. I found out that a lot of my eating was emotional; the image I tried to acheive was what others thought, not me; and, I am a Christian that believes in God and Jesus Christ and they were no where in the picture as I tormented myself for years. I also learned that if I did not develop a relationship with God, then nothing I did will work anyway.

The book is titled: What About God? Healthy Weight Loss Through Commitment Meditation and Prayer. It is available on Amazon.

Yes, I want to sell the book. However, I really want other people to have the information that I do so that the life they live can be happy, joyous and free. I don't know about you, but dieting is miserable. I am learning how to take care of my temple and eat healthy. No, I will eat another piece of cake in my life; however, it will not be because of an emotional issue that I need to take to God and not to the cake. The cake or whatever else one may eat for comfort adds to the problem; God and Jesus are the solution. Take care of your heart and keep your weight at a point where it is not impacting other areas of your life such as health, family, employment, social, etc. You don't have to be skinny, healthy is good enough. Remember, if you put God in the middle, then all will be well everywhere. It takes practice, but it works.

The very best thing you can do for yourself is to maintain your health. I've learned that the hard way. As long as you work out and eat right, be happy with who you are. If you're going to lose the weight, do it slowly so that it's less likely to come back. GOD is definitely the solution. He loves us no matter what, right? I'm good with that. People can love me as I am or leave me as I be. Love you, GOD does.
