Welcome to My Wilderness
Good Morning Girls! So glad you could join us today as we go on a tour of my Wilderness! Yes, entrance is free and pride is left at the gate. I've been wandering over here for 20 years now, and I plan on entering Canaan soon, so I thought I would show you around before I leave. Here you will see the diets I have wandered with. They include the Atkins, South Beach, Mayo, Ski Team, Weight Watchers, Master Cleanse, 7 Day Detox, Body for Life and others I cannot remember. In this area we have the pills and supplements I have taken in hope of faster results. This part here is the shapewear I have purchased to tide me over until one of the diets work. Ah, this section here includes the creams that have promised me that my cellulite holes will magically fill in, and my c-section skin will firm up. This mountain here is all of the workout videos and dvd's that I have purchased so that I may do the same workouts as all of those fabulous people on the tv infomercials. At finally over here, are my "before photo's". These are photos that I take in an ugly bikini to show how much progress I have made. Notice that there are 11 sets of "before photo's", and no after photos. Yes, you are correct, all 11 photos look pretty much the same even though they have been taken over a period of 3 years, and I have been "dieting" the whole time! Fascinating isn't it? Well, Praise the Lord, I am on my way out! I shared with you six weeks ago that I was doing Body for Life (again), and part of why I believe it is Gods will for me to do it. If you want a refresher on the details, check out the "My Why" blog. On Saturday, I will be half way through the 12 weeks. For the first time in years, I am confident that I will not quit. I know some of you are watching, waiting, to see what happens. I know that me finishing will encourage you all to take on a section of your wilderness. So, I keep moving forward. In the past, once I started to get results, I would stray from whatever program I was doing and do things my way. I would add and subtract any parts that I didn't feel were a contributer to my success. Well, if that would have been accurate, I would not still be here in my wilderness. So girls, I am moving forward, and I will not deviate! Thanks to those of you who have been encouraging me along the way.
Joshua 1:7 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the instructions Moses gave you. Do not deviate from them, turning either to the right or to the left. then you will be successful in everything you do.
Love you all-
