Day 223

This is my motto, as I begin my day. I was so discouraged a minute ago, as I stood on my scales. They were weighing me 2 lbs heavier: 227!!! (It is that time of the month - - - insert loud BOO), anyway, I looked on line and most women gain 2 - 6 pounds due to water weight and bloating, so that relieved my worried self. Then, I saw this quote and realized, that even though I may gain a few pounds (while on my period), there are so many others out there with life-threatening diseases and conditions who are praying for survival as I type. I want to take a moment to publicly thank God for His outpouring of blessings on me and my family. We are so blessed for all He has given us through the years. Many folks don't have the option of being fat, because they don't have enough food. I want to remain thankful, dedicated to healthy eating, and exercise as I go about this day 223 and on . . . .

Thank you, God . . . .
