Watching My Weight-Now I know what that means.

I have always heard people say "No, I am not going to eat that, I am watching my weight." Now I understand what that means. Now that I am working on maintaining my current weight, I know longer am trying to lose weight, I am "watching" my weight.

A new discovery is that saying "I am watching my weight" is more accepted than "I am on a diet." I wish I would have learned that earlier. Anyway, today is July 4th and I am watching my weight. I will eat, but I will keep it under control.

To my weight concious friends on this journey with me--remember that even when you get off the wagon, you are watching your weight. Keep that mentality and you will make it.

Lord, I come to you today. It is a day full of temptations, but I know you have carried me through before. Help me not to eat the trigger foods that make me lose my control. Help me to be satisfied with what I do eat. Thank you for hearing my prayer--in the name of Jesus.
