Self-Control

I need some self-control.


As I have documented my weight loss journey, the hardest thing for me has been my eating... well, and drinking (I LOVE SODA).

I love all things deep fried... French fries, mushrooms, cheese sticks, chicken strips... Mmmmm. I have a hard time saying no to those types of things. I hate the fact that I have to give up things that I truly enjoy like this, plus desserts and soda and frappuchinos... I mean, don't get me wrong. I love salad. I really enjoy Subway. Fast food makes me feel slow and tired. But I love french fries more. I enjoy hummus on my veggies, but I love ranch more. I like water... well, no thats a lie. Its boring. Give me a flippin' diet coke.

Ugh. Obviously, this has slowed my progress. And that part is frustrating, but I am convinced that in heaven, I get to eat all the darn food I want and not gain a pound!

But while I am still here, I am going to get this under control. I am going to get some better self-control.

"A person without self-control is like a city with broken-down walls."
Proverbs 25:28
