blessings for prayers!

[ParaCristo]

I have been really struggling with my weight and trying to get started back on a diet. I signed up for weight watchers a week ago and i have failed miserably and it just isnt working for me. I have tried tons of diets over the years and the only one that ever worked was Atkins. I lost 80lbs on Atkins from 0ct 2002-2003 and then found out i was pregnant and had to quit. today i started back up on Atkins and have lots to lose! Please pray for me that i wont fall into temptation, and that i keep turning to God each and every day for the help i need!
I will give 5 blessings to everyone who promises to pray for me. Even just stop right now and say a prayer if you would! thanks.

KarenMarie,

I lost 70 pounds over 20 years ago, and have kept off 50 of the 70 pounds. I know the struggle.

What I have found that works best is to eat for my health rather than for pleasure. I began studying which foods are healthy to eat and which ones were not, and then prayerfully amended my diet. Instead of "dieting" I try to just eat healthy foods.

God bless you and strengthen you and help you through this discipline. (I don't want the blessings for praying, either). There's also sometimes an underlying root problem (from childhood), an issue that needs to be released in order to succeed in achieving and maintaining a healthy weight.

Often, it has to do with low self-esteem. I sure had that, but no more.

Love,

Ann

thanks so much for the prayers ann!! Thats great to hear that you have overcome. I agree that overeating is just a symptom to a bigger problem. Finding the root of the problem is difficult to do! I just keep asking God for healing. I will trust in him! I am doing good on day 2 of my diet!! woo hoo! Thank you God!
