The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, He will quiet you with His love. He will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17
DH called and invited me to lunch today. He always eats at Subway. So I was mentally preparing myself. They have the new Fresh Fit Meal Deal. So with my <6g fat sandwich, I got apple slices instead of chips and water instead of soda!
The Cheetos looked really good, but I knew that if I really wanted some, I have the 100 cal packs at home and I could snack on some later if I wanted!
Yay me!!! I'm so proud of myself for that.
Last night at meeting we talked about 'excuses' ... what excuses we use for not following program. One LilMs shared was "It's not my fault if we eat out. That's my parents' decision." Well, our dear leader then went back over the list and when she got to "It's not my fault" she asked LilMs "Who does the ordering??" LilMs grinned and shyly said "Me" Sue (our leader) had made her point with LilMs! LOL And with me!
But I also have my own excuses -- and I pitched them today! I wanted my Italian BMT and Cheetos, BUT I also wanted to make the right choices. And I did and it felt good!
I NEED to make better choices when we do go out ... I CAN make better choices when we go out ... and with God's help and ya'lls encouragement and support, I WILL make better choices when we go out!
