THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY:
As of this morning I have lost 7.7 pounds and I'm just starting the 8th day of my diet. Today I ate my first red meat in a week. And, unless I do some significant activity today, I don't think today will result in any additional weight loss.
Today didn't go as planned. But, I survived and came back strong by the end of it. I must say that I am really beginning to feel the love. Some have really encouraged me. Others I've heard are watching. It is truly amazing how many things God has shown me, how many people he has put in my path. And the bumps in the road, they're there for me to reach out and grab His hand and He lifts me and carries me over them.
My overall grade for today: B+ (If you grade on the curve.)
How did you do? (I am beginning to wonder if anybody reads down to this part because no one has let me know how they're doing. They just ask how I'm doing. I really want to hear from you—How are you doing?
