31 Days of Praise: October 16

Today I am thankful for the added strength God provides when we ask for it. The hubby and I have been working really hard to lose weight, eat healthy and get in shape over the last 4 months. We have both struggled with being overweight most of our lives and this summer we came to realize that it was due mainly to our inability to say "No" to ourselves. We have since really worked at learning and praying for temperance. God has given us the strength to control our bad eating habits and this week we both hit milestones. The hubby hit the 54 lb mark on Thursday and is almost halfway to his final weight loss goal. Today, I hit the 21 lb mark and am a third of the way to my final weight loss goal.
