Hebrews 12:1-3 Thoughts

What hinders me from living a healthy lifestyle is that I am self-indulgent. I crave sugar, especially anything chocolate! When depressed or stressed, my daily battles, I read the Bible, pray, write in my quiet time journal but I also seek comfort in food. I am lazy to make lasting lifestyle changes. I get resentful when my husband pushes me to exercise or eat healthy. He looks into a mirror and with determination goes and losses 20 pounds. I look in the mirror, get depressed and go look for something to eat. I am a cancer survivor who has systemic lupus and ITP, a rare blood disorder. I've almost died four times in my life and I'm grateful to be alive, only by the grace of God! One would think that I of all people would be desirous of a healthy lifestyle. I am grateful God isn't done with me yet! Debi

Thanks for your vulnerability, Deb. I feel your struggles. Russ is THE fitness Energizer Bunny. I do exercise mostly because I know how badly I need it. I KNOW how to eat well; I've been studying it for most of our 28 year marriage. I need accountability though.3
