My Journey Toward A Trusting Heart

Boy am I shocked!

Well, all I can say is that I am very very surprised at the "traffic" this initial post has generated. THANKS, Julie. Guess she had to prove her point, eh??

So thank you, Ladies, for taking time to read my thoughts and to encourage this new thing! I'm still a little skeptical, but I'll keep it going and see what happens. I may post some recent MUSINGS I sent out to some gals who are doing a "90-Day Renewal" along with me (and Donna Partow)...God has certainly stirred up some things in me. And as I said before, MAYBE it'll strike a chord with someone else. No sense keeping it to myself, is there?

THANK YOU, Jacque, for your inspiration and your motivation to stick with it. Talk about hoping it doesn't take 4 year to get off what it took 4 years to put on -- well, "I" hope it doesn't take 20! I was slim and trim until my first pregnancy in 1987 -- and here we are almost 20 years later -- an add'l 80 lbs. YUK. But each day I keep pressing on "toward to the goal" -- one pound at a time.

But you know, the Lord has put something in me that even my fleshly "dread" of exercising has not quenched. I still am not enamoured with walking, esp. on the treadmill. Yes, I can watch TV, but I still cannot get my eyes off the clock. I wish I could just lose myself in it, but it has not happened yet. Maybe today I need to get out that "little black dress" I want to wear again -- maybe that'll movitatve me to MOVE.

So, new friends (and Dear Julie), blessings on your day. I'll write or copy more here later. Right now, if I don't get off here, I'll miss my quiet time. DH is off to FL today on biz...that means Mommy 24/7 for the next four days. My quiet time is gonna be critical.

TTFN,

Kim

Ah, yes, I'm a clock-watcher, too! I know that I need to exercise, but I have the hardest time motivating myself to do so and then when I'm on the treadmill, all I can do is watch for my time to be up! We have started a weight loss support group blog here at HSB. You can check it at at Blubber Bloggers - we have our own Yahoo Group that you can join for support, too.

Feel free to join us!
