Fit Mommy Friday!

 
 
OK, it is Friday and I have some good news. 
 
I have been doing a lot better with my food choices. 
 
I have not had any pop in 4 days! WHoo-Hoo!
 
My junk food has been nil to none. 

I am so proud. 

I came to a realization after talking to a friend of mine, that my problem is really an addiction. And a sin. 

I mean, I knew that gluttony was a sin, but I never really thought about it having such a grip on my life. 

I was really convicted after our conversation, and have not had any pop, or junk since then. 

The biggest junk I had was a muffin.
 
It has been amazing. I haven't even really had much of a craving for pop. 
I have had a few cravings, mostly for desserts, but when I feel like I want one, I really ask myself,  do I want to let this have control over my life? Of course, the answer is NO!
 
I am so happy, and I really feel like things are changing for real this time!
Thanks to God's wonderful grace, and how He is helping me.

Wow! You've made some real progress this week! Congratulations. I need to remember not to let the temptation to eat desserts rule me, either.

That's a big step and a tough one too! My sister is letting go sodas as well this year. I am proud of you and her!

I replaced my soda with herbal teas, and somehow also gave up the coffee (for the most part). I only get diet coke now when we go out for a meal, They are no longer in the house!!!!

Good luck!!!

Giving up pop and sweets is very hard. I'm really proud of you for tackling these areas.

Have a wonderful weekend.

YOU GO GIRL! I've meant to email you, my accountability partner, a couple times this week and didn't...SORRY! I did enjoy the Leslie Sansone workout video twice last week. I think it is going to be a very good thing!

I am a bit stuck on soda too, but I change a Looooonnnnnngggg time ago cutting 6-10 per day down to 1 per day. Then when we went on low-carb the first time changed to diet. Now we only buy no-carb drinks and I drink no more then 2 (usually one or less) and I make myself finish my water for the day first. Good for you!
