Your turn to talk to me! I'm looking for your reports and responses from 3 months of saving money, calories, and time. So please come prepared to the phone call to share 2 or 3 sentences--your "pits" and "peaks". We'll share a high and a low...and then I'll share a word of encouragement to get us through the last week of the quarter.
I also would LOVE for everyone (I think there are almost 90 of us in this quarter) to share on the blog...what worked for you, what rating you would give yourself, what is the hardest part of saving money, calories, or time!
Come on everyone--let's end the quarter strong!
Be encouraged,
Becky

Becky, thank you so much for another wonderful quarter. It amazes me that in your very busy schedule, you find the time to meet with us, and provide us with things we can use for the rest of our lives. People don't always remember the courses they have taken (I can't tell you anything about high school algebra for instance!), but your material has provided resources that will endure and that I will continue to use.
ReplyDeleteAnd the fact that you are giving us a lifelong plan based on Biblical principles, is even better.
Thank you so much.
And thanks to the other members, who have shared so much.
see you in quarter four.
Laura.

I have learned and are using your tips
I have learned that turning to God is the answer and I am down 39.5 pounds so I am focusing on my future and what recovery looks like. I am feeling better and I will have a new home in October leaving behind 32 years of memories and I am okay. Food is not the solution only God for me. Thanks Becky for all you do and your prayers for us. Blessings..Diana
ReplyDeleteSometimes when I think I have this life all figured out, I then proceed to fall down hard and crawl around on the ground until I can see my Savior's robe and reach out and touch the hem of His garment, and once again He heals my heart and I am able to stand again and follow Him. He is the God who see's everything. Every tear we cry. And knows everything...all that we are going through, all of our frustrations. He is forever faithful, and His Spirit comes at the moment we least suspect. He uses the body, His people, to minister to one another, and that is what happened to me yesterday. I was having a horrible day. A precious sister in Christ prayed with me and He poured out His healing love. She was Jesus in the flesh, the hands and feet of Christ. And that is what we are called to do for each other. To support and encourage and love each other. Unity in the Body of Christ. "Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." Eph 4:2
ReplyDeleteThank you Becky, for your prayers, patience and encouragement weekly. I will not quit. I have dusted myself off, and am walking with Jesus. I will be doing my 20/20/20 daily with His help. The the praying step is daily bread-life, the planning step helps keep me focused, and the playing keeps me young at heart. "Come," he replied,"and you will see." John 1:39 Thank you Lord that you never let go...keep us walking with You daily, keep us close by Your side.
Diana and Hugbear,
ReplyDeleteThis is Mickey
I just wanted to express my thanks for your willness to blog and let all of us know what you are doing.
1. I appciated the rick warren info. Like lists
2. appciated and have been reading my change your life bible
this may sound elem. but I am writing how long and what DAy it is on a pinto bean in hopes to just see how long I can keep it up. reading and praying and watching what I eat.
3. Still am at the same WT as 1Jan, 2009
so I need to try harder.
It's hard also to talk about money
um.........not right now.... just too painful.
5. Liked timing tasks and realy taking the time to say..."oh, It will only take me 10min..not "Oh, I have this to do.....and I don't realy want to do it...the change in just knowing how long some task will take has helped.
6. I have the Book "Flat Belly Diet"
I read it....but must comfess to everyone
I don't know how to do a diet...have never ever stuck with anything in my entire life. Wow, that sounded realy dumb.
===so what I wanted to ask any one
"If anyone would like to be my accountabltiy partner for the last 12 weeks?"
Thanks so much everyone
I am putting a pinto bean in a jar

Mickey, I just posted a long heart felt post and the computer ate it....I will write more later, I would love to be your accountability partner....Diana
ReplyDeleteTo all who prayed, thank you, I am in total recovery, getting up early praying, and reading God's word. I feel like King David in Psalm 103 where I have been lifted out of the pits of despair and have been crowned with righteousness. I am functioning better at work. I am moving on up to the East side, I love old reruns of the tv comedys. Not much time for TV anymore. Finally kicked the habit of watching soaps.
ReplyDeleteWe are moving starting October 5th. I have been on an emotional roller coaster reliving many memories. I found some burgandy knickers and a burgandy bolero jacket that were my favorite from 1982. I am going to wear them again they are a size 9. I should be there by December or January 2010. My journey started in January 2005 at 245 pounds. I am currently at 172. I am no longer obese in my BMI only overweight. I have changed my goal I wanted to be 160 but now I am going for 140 not to say I lost one hundred pounds but to be at a normal BMI. I will be there in 20 more weeks. I am losing at a rate of 2 pounds a week and I am wearing my 12 and 14 now, but I am heading for the burgany knickers. Join me
I want to say I have done none of this on my own I have done this because of the grace of God. I have not been given a spirit of fear but of power, love and discipline. 2 Tim 1:7. I am confident that the good work God has begun in me will be perfected. Phil 1:6. I am complete in Christ. Col 2:10. I cannot be separate from the love of God. Romans 8: 35-39.
I may approach God with freedom and confidence. Ephesians 3:12 I am fearfully and wonderfully made and his thoughts of me are as numerous as the sand on the sea shore every single day. Psalms 139.
Blessings..Diana
