    one more thing to add. to all of you who are struggling or wrestling with God right now, check out comforts from the cross (short devotions) by Elyse Fitzpatrick.
    we've got to go to the cross multiple times a day. if we could follow steps or get out of a pit..we wouldn't need Jesus. anyway it's amazing reads. I am not selling anything just thought if anyone has been in my situation (doubting so much) then this would help :) also add me if you're a christian. need more on my board ;)

    What an awesome testimony.
    Psalm 29:11 The Lord gives his people strength. The Lord blesses them with peace.

    Ernest - Thank you for sharing your story. Very inspirational. While as a few have said, you did the hard work through proper diet and exercise but the strength and willpower to do that comes from God. Your faith is inspiring!!!!

    First off...congrats on losing the weight! Keep it up!

    I do wish you would give credit where it's due though...to yourself. If you wanna believe that some invisible man in the sky did it fine....maybe .....maybe not. It's unknowable.

    Once again...GOOD JOB!

    I'm kind of glad I am not the only one who feels this way..Again this is not a bash on your beliefs or anyone's or lack there of
    ( I'm Agnostic for example) - I just feel it's extrmely important to acknowledge no one can do this but ourselves. We may get strength from various sources but ultimately we have to want it for ourselves :)

    God is awesome!! There is nothing more powerful than prayer and more so when it comes from the heart. May the Lord continue blessing you with the strength and determination to reach your goal.

    Giving Him the glory is saying "thank you Jesus, I couldn't have done it without you". Congratulations!!!

    YOU lost weight. Not some fairy man. I do not thank Sherlock Holmes, James Bond or Dracula for my weight loss, and neither should anyone else.

    Congrats on your loss. Give yourself credit where it is due.

    OR you could let him believe what he wants to, as he is freely allowed to under the Constitution of the United States, and just celebrate in his success without the snide comments on why you believe you are right in your views and he is wrong.

    Dude - awesome job. Just read Matthew 6 tonight and was struck by how we are taken care of in all things by our heavenly Father. He truly wants what is good for all his children. Well done!
