Weight Update #2

• I spoke to my Accountability Partner this past Wednesday, September 6, 2017, and I had the NERVE to be bummed because I had ONLY lost 3.6 pounds since Sunday, September 3rd. (340.6 down to 337)

• I keep thinking, "Since I'm still so heavy, I should be losing like 10 pounds a week!!"
• This is evidence of crazy, warped thinking. 

• I want this weight off NOW, but God is working on the spiritual piece first 
• GOD WANTS ME TO BE OBEDIENT TO HIS GOD-GIVEN HUNGER AND FULLNESS AND NOT BOW DOWN TO ANOTHER FALSE GOD = THE SCALE. 

                       

Wednesday, 9.6.2017 = another 3.6 pounds down, but I was still disappointed that it was not more. Very selfish thinking and expectations. God owes me nothing!!

      

                           

Friday, 9.8.2017 = another 1.0 pounds down, I wanted it to be more than that.

Sunday, 9.10.2017 = 0.6 pounds down


 September 3: 340.6 / September 10: 335.4 = -5.2 lbs, 2nd Week

HELPFUL WORDS FROM MY WEIGH DOWN ACCOUNTABILITY PARTNER:

1. We didn't gain all our weight overnight, so we won't lose it overnight

2. It's a good test of my will to see if I will be obedient to hunger and fullness even when the scale won't move or move as quickly as I want

3. Water weight comes off first and then things slow down when it's true fat

4. Keep focusing up on God and the weight will come off! 

August 28: 347.8 pounds / September 3: 340.6 = -7.2 lbs,1st Week

September 3: 340.6 / September 10: 335.4 = -5.2 lbs, 2nd Week = -12.4 lbs total
