I almost couldn't believe it whenow I got on the scale this morning! Praise God! I tried to get on yesterday to journal, but children... lol. But Tuesday I had a gigantic victory, I was eating a burger and fries, and I all of a sudden got this really full, you don't want to eat any more of this feeling. I even tried to ignore it at first, and took a few more bites, but just couldnt eat anymore. So I stopped, half way through my plate. And didn't take any cheescake my daughter had made the day before for dessert. Last week there was pumpkin pie in the fridge for 4 days without me eating it, because I just wasn't in the mood, not because I couldnt. Is this still me? And there is one of those chocolate dipped ice cream cones in the freezer, my favorite. I was almost trying to talk myself into yesterday, and I'm allowed to have it, but I just didn't want it. It feels so freeing! I know this is all God's work, because none of this is natural to me.
And on another huge victory, after almost a month of Pilates I can touch my toes. I was the kid in gym class that when we had to do testing, they would make you try to touch your toes and measure how far you could reach, I was always humiliated because I couldn't come close. While it seemed almost everyone else could do it easily. So touching my toes is a serious win!
The weight loss is great, but the rest is even better! God bless you all, I pray you have a wonderful day.
