Today, I (Shannon) am starting Weight Watchers—again. I am at least 125 lbs. heavier than I should be for someone my height. I’m not eating right, exercising, or setting a good healthy example for my children. And what’s worse is that my terrible eating habits have caused me to make other unhealthy choices like being deceitful or just outright lying in order to sneak and hide food. Well, today I start over—again.
I’m asking that you pray for me as I try and adjust my lifestyle for the better. I’m asking for your prayer and encouragement, to help me re-focus my life on those areas that truly bring me joy: my faith, my family, my friends, my music. I need to always remember that food only ever brings me momentary satisfaction. It never brings lasting joy.
Thank you.
That’s it. No lengthy post. For those needing a bit of joy today, please enjoy the following video by comedian, Mike Phirman:
