    Matthew 19:26 King James Bible
    But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

    I have struggled with obesity my entire life. Eight years ago I lost over 90lbs....got married and gained it all plus some back. I really have been struggling with the up and down back and fourth. With God's help we can all do this. I pray that each person on this thread will reach their goal and live a healthier lifestyle.

    Amen! I am also a person who has fought her weight all her life. I too lost over 90 pounds about 3 years ago. I gained it back just because I like to eat, don't like to exercise, and self-discipline is a weakness for me. I am a food addict.

    With the surrender of my will to God and allowing him to work through my life I can lose the weight and keep it off. It won't always be easy but it will be worth it. 9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:9
