Yay! I’ve benefitted so much by doing this as well as excercise. I’ve lost 58 lbs. I’m stopping at 140lbs. (7 more to go). Now I’m focusing more on toning up problem areas like my TUMMY. I have a goal in mind: stay in the size 8 – YES, I said 8 – wedding gown that I just bought. I can’t gain a single pound if I plan to wear it 11/17/07. No room to goof around.

I’ve done this in so many more ways than I would ever have time to write.
Thank you, Jesus.
Best of luck to anyone who ever makes this a goal and sticks to it.
It’s been harder than I expected, but so rewarding when going well. Chris and I are both adapting well to our apointed roles in the house. Our children have also benefitted from a more consistant and less frantic home. I helps that we no longer fight to be “king of the mountain”. I am quite satisfied and happy to oblige to being the “right hand lady”. What is the king without his supportive queen?
It has helped to find these roles plainly stated in God’s Word.
