HELLO FRIENDS, THIS LOOKS LIKE IT COULD BE A GREAT WAY FOR US TO ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER ALONG OUR JOURNEY, WHICH AS WE ALL KNOW IS A LIFE LONG JOURNEY. MY STORY IS....I HAVE BEEN UP AND DOWN WITH MY WEIGHT ALL MY MARRIED LIFE. I AM AT THE AGE NOW TO WHERE I CAN TELL IT IS TAKING A TOLE ON MY BODY. I KNOW FIRST OF ALL THAT I CANT DO THIS WITHOUT ME ALLOWING GOD TO TAKE THE LEAD. IN MYSELF I AM SUCH A FAILURE. SO, I HOPE WE CAN USE THIS AS A TOOL TO ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER AND BUILD ONE ANOTHER UP IN THE LORD AND ALSO IN OUR WEIGHT LOSS EFFORTS. LOVE YOU NLCC GIRLIES!!!

    I wholeheartedly agree! Even though I don't fill my body with drugs and alcohol....my "crutch" was eating instead. I know most people think this isn't a big deal, however with my weight gain my ankles started swelling and would stay swollen continuously...which in turn started causing me concern and wondering if I had a problem with my blood circulation, etc...plus I simply just never felt GOOD. I finally got on the scales and was shocked almost to tears. It's no wonder my ankles were swollen...they were carrying a load God never intended for them to carry! (I say this jokingly but it is the honest truth) I finally had a revelation of some sorts and realized I had to do something. I am so glad ya'll signed up for this....I need all the encouragement I can get and I hope I can be somewhat of an encouragement to you guys as well!
  • You are an encouragement Christie! If it weren't for you I wouldn't be on here! I am very proud of you!
