Commitment Renewed

Today I attended a WW meeting with a friend.  After my last blog my friend emailed me with her words of re-commitment and support.  While reading her email I realized that we were very much in the same place looking at some of the same struggles.  I emailed her with the recommendation that we should attend a meeting together to re-commit.

Today we went to that meeting together.  It was wonderful.  It was nice to be there with a friend who understands what I'm going through.  It was a great meeting too.  We talked about some of the things that I have been struggling with these days.......how to eat foods you love and still control your weight.  I think this is one of the hardest things to do when losing and maintaining weight.  Who wants to deprive themselves to lose weight?  Deprivation is what keeps us from losing weight because we eventually give in to the temptation.

I'm happy to report that after meeting my friend today and participating in the WW meeting I feel completely renewed.  I'm looking forward to continuing this journey.  I'm also looking forward to making it feel new.

"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." -2 Corinthians 4:16-18
