Better choices

I am on day 11 of making better choices for life.  As of day 11 I am 15 lbs lighter and I am happy about that.  I contribute my success thus far to making some very tough decisions.  The criteria for what I stick in my mouth is simple.  Is this healthy food or is this junk?  Am I really hungry or am I just being an emotional eater that needs to have a quick fix and feel good?  The Medifast meal program is forcing me to limit how much I eat and it is changing my eating habits one day at a time.  The key to my success will be my understanding that my need to lose weight far outweighs my want for the food I am used to eating.  If I want to lose weight I must make drastic changes.  Only I can do this, no one else can do it for me.  My desire to lose weight is growing as I watch the lbs come off and the clothes I have fit better.  Some other motivational after affects of my new and better choices is that my blood pressure has dropped several points and stayed down. My flexibility has improved some as well which is nice. My short term goal is to lose 20 lbs so that means I need to lose five more lbs.  My medium range goal is to lose 40 lbs which will be awesome if I can keep this up. 

I am on week 9 of the fall semester at Trident Technical College and I am doing very well much to my surprise.  I have managed to figure out a system that helps me to stay organized with all four of my classes and I have a set schedule that I follow.  I am glad that I have been able to keep up with everything thus far and have managed to make good grades.

New week new day

Today is day seven of my Take Shape for Life program.  I am glad that I am mentally adjusted to the program and that I will not be shocked to find out this morning that most of my meals will consist of tiny little food bars that have 110 calories and lots of water.  I am eating scrambled eggs with my decaf coffee to jump start my day.

One of my dear friends from Tennessee made mention that I should be doing this for Christ’s sake.  I understand the spiritual implications of what he is saying but I have to say that I have much more motivation to do this for my sake.  I am motivating myself to make better decisions for life.  Take shape for life to me means to make better decisions so that I can continue to live a better less rounded life.  In our society where more is better my decision is to say less can be even better.  I must die to myself and stop gratifying the flesh and giving in to its wants and desires.  The sin of gluttony is just as ugly as any other sin that you can think of.  In the book of James in the bible it tells us that when sin takes it full course it ends in death.  The sin of gluttony can kill me and I know that unless I get it under control and captivate my mind and renew my thought processes with good information and better decisions that I might get to experience some of the more critical and possibly life ending consequences of obesity.  No one wants a heart attack or stroke and I am not any different.  I do not want to have my life prematurely ended because I was too lazy to stop poking bad things into my mouth.  I am not saying that food itself is bad but what I am saying is that when we eat too much of it and the wrong kinds of things that our bodies get out of balance and that is when it gets bad. 

Just last week I caught myself wanting to self medicate with food.  Some would say that being an emotional eater will lend towards being fat and I would have to agree with that.  I found myself in a stressful situation where I was not happy about something and the first thing that popped into my mind was to go to the general store and get some food.  The thought of doing that was very pleasant and happy.  The problem with the thought is that I was telling myself that in order to experience the stress of the moment that it would be better if I experienced the stress of the moment with some of my favorite foods in my mouth.   Luckily for me I overcame the thought process and caught myself before I acted on it.  I told myself that eating something I wanted was only going to do me more harm and give me a setback with what little progress I made last week with this program.  So, I made the right choice in that moment and did not do what I have been programmed to do all these years. 

This is day 7 of my new Take Shape for Life program and I am happy to be where I am.  I am happy that I have the opportunity to make the right decisions and for those good decisions to take me closer and closer to my goal of shrinking the incredible me.  I want to be half the man that I am today and I mean that in a literal sense.  This may take me 6 months to a year to accomplish but I am convinced that I can do it.  I CAN do this.  I can do this.  I want to do this.  I need to do this.  I will do this.

For those of you that are my friends I would ask that you continue to pray for my ability to keep on keeping on with this.  I am clinging to Phillipians 4:13 that says I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.  This is a hard thing for me to do but I am determined to do it despite my past history of failures.  I want to thank each of you for your continued support and encouragement as I move forward with this goal.
