Well I weighed this morning and I'm doing good keeping the weight off that I have already lost. What I need to do this week is work on losing at least another pound or two. This adventure seems to be taking a lot longer than I had hoped. I guess what I need to do is actually put some concerted effort in it. Not that I haven't already, but I have been mostly, only relying on grace. Grace is wonderful, but you probably need to apply faith to it, and move forward. I believe that is the key to success, in weight loss. I think maybe I'm starting to understand, the grace helps tremendously, in staying power, but faith is what keeps you moving forward to actually lose the weight. I'm covered in grace, but I walk by faith. So we really must use our faith and move forward, without fear, to reach our goals! Here's a yummy recipe for a good Sunday dinner, that I tweaked, to make it weight loss friendly.
