Yes...I crave food more than I crave God. *OUCH!!*<br /><br />Yes I have to admit I do this as well. It is a constant battle, and I love more often than I care to admit. Good thing God is gracious and patient... Lord help me! I want you to... at least, sort of I do!

I know all to well of your struggle, and I fully confess that these last two weeks with surgery and the general ill feeling, I have been scarfing up cookies. Which I shoot insulin to counteract the carb.<br /><br />You are brave and you painted a pretty graphic image of yourself. lol It's called "dunlop" when part of your body got big enough it "done lopped over" and created those sticky, sweaty places. Kind of gross huh? I have to tell you that when I saw you for the first time, my reaction was not "Oh, that girl PUT on some weight now". It was, "Wow, There is a softness and gentleness about Marcey that I don't remember from her teen years." Granted, none of us should be judged by our teen years. But I saw a spiritual maturity in you, not a size.<br /><br />But I am right there with your and I am almost certain our pastor's wife would admit to the same addiction. You know something is wrong, if you buy a can of frosting or a cookie dough tube just eat by yourself. Gluttony is just as hard to control as any other sin. And in the church fellowship it's worse because it's a sin that we overlook and use to our advantage.<br /><br />But my doctor has cleared me for climbing onto my stationary bike if I skip all the arm movement. So I will join you on your journey to bust through this stronghold. If we must eat while we fellowship, then we will do so with veggies. or fruit. or...(Tina slaps her hand). I still have 50 lbs to lose for my bariatric surgeon. So I will start the exercise...I HATE to sweat...it's a big deal to me. And I will try to find other creative and productive ways to respond to the food cravings. I started to list them and figured out right away it was NOT a good way to start this.<br /><br />If you find the magic verse, let me know. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13391196534212697503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967193410026276745.post-88645783386421643872012-07-03T17:48:12.200-05:002012-07-03T17:48:12.200-05:00I read Your Story on your friend's blog, and I...I read Your Story on your friend's blog, and I will be visiting here often.The Resident Writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04915561166481715011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967193410026276745.post-25929237679330326812012-06-10T21:32:17.057-05:002012-06-10T21:32:17.057-05:00I think you look great in all your pics lately but...I think you look great in all your pics lately but I also totally understand the feeling!
