Yet another day

Alright, I skipped a day.  Mr. Christy (Mr. HD Maven) and I discussed my pictures (which he took) for my "before" pictures... and he was obviously NOT okay with my posting on them on the mighty worldwideweb for the entire world to see.  I can't say I was super excited about it, but for completely different reasons.  God made men and women so uniquely different- it amazes me how differently we see things sometimes.  It's kinda cool, I have to say.  I've learned to appreciate these differences rather than fight them every time they come up.  Which is often- because we're different. 

So, I'll share this awesome picture from last July that shows what great shape I was in.
That is my beautiful daughter, Isabella with me- but I'm that large lady on the right... with a very complimentary outfit on... let's just not get in to that.  It was hot.  I'm letting it go.  I'll share yet another view...
This is an even awesomer picture!  Mr. Christy likes to play paparazzi when he has the camera and this type of candid shot is his specialty.  If I didn't treasure EVERY picture of my beautiful daughter so much, I would have deleted all of them. Sorry Mr. Christy. 

I'm not going to dwell on these photos, but my point is, last summer, I weighed about 40 pounds more than I do right now.  It was hot.  It was miserable.  And I don't want to "go back there."  But, as I said before- it will be by God's grace.  Nothing in me has the self control or will power to not overindulge on a regular basis.  I pray for God to protect me in this area- because His grace is sufficient- in EVERYTHING.  (People need to know this.  God cares about the little stuff- that's a BIG DEAL to me.)

On that note- be blessed today in all you do.
