My experiences: dealing with the new body I have earned since birthing children. I want to love this body. It has amazed me by bringing forth my sweet sons, and if it can last through labor, even unmedicated, well then, it can last through all the athletic endeavors I always wanted to achieve but was too afraid to try....

Emotional Eating
Monday started out strong and fresh. Like a brand new start in my challenge. It was amazing. Then, during naptime, my dear friend gave me some devastating news. Now, I never thought I was an emotional eater, or at least I never admitted it to myself, but Monday, I realized that I am. Soon after the call... I walked past the bag of chips I keep in the house for my husbands sanity. I don't like chips, so it is easy to keep around and my hubby doesn't' feel deprived. Anyway, I walked by and thought... OOOOH, I NEED those! Wait! What? No, I grabbed that thought, named it what it was... and realized that I am in for a long wild, emotional ride these next 18 weeks (of the T.com challenge). I am ready for God to use me and I cannot wait to see myself at the end. I am ready. I am so sad how it will come to be, but I am ready for God to make a change.

I can not tell you how much you will grow from it though, no matter how it hurts. I grew sooo much during my transformation - guess what - God is not near finished with my growing. It was getting easy. Not that He brought me to this storm ONLY for that reason, but I know He is drawing me nearer and nearer to Him, and that might not have happened otherwise.
Go and Grow my friend. Your inner beauty will blind us!
