I began this year with high hopes of making 52 changes to my life and diet to make this my healthiest year yet. I bragged as I week after week really picked new things to change and then made the changes. They wer acumulating until the week that I put out a true challenge for me and God listened. When God listens he doesn't just grant you the ability to fufill your needs, he challenges your ability to meet the needs yourself. To this suprisingly I say thank you to him.
The change I made that has been such a challenge was to stop emotional eating. Some of you may not understand this idea but for those of you that struggle with this as well you know all too well from where I speak. After challenging this to myself, I faced stresses with my middle child, from minor health problems to lies and theft. MY dear hubby spent increasing time on Mom duty with his aging mother, my preteen had hormonal mood swings and a appendix scare and lil man is 3 enough said.
I have fought hard to not eat emotionally but follow a mindful eating midset so I know why I am eating, for hunger not for other reasons. I have not however always succeeded but continue to work and my weight has maintained which I was proud of since usually it would be a gain instead.
That will teach me to brag especially when God is listening
