I found this quote to share.  It pretty much sums up how I was led to this town to start my new life.

I know Christianity is not everyone's choice and as I explained in an earlier blog, I'm not here to 'bible bash', everyone has free will to choose what they want to believe in.  However, for me this has been a real part of my journey which has bought about a real sense of peace, has helped me learn to trust again, too forgive, to regain strength and to have hope.

I hope you like the quote.

and what helped me to overcome depression (and I'm not saying that Christian's can't have counselling or medication to assist, because everyone overcomes at different lengths of time), but for me it was knowing that He loves me so much.

But back to the weightloss story now.   Did not heed my own advice last night.  Stayed up way to late and ended up eating when I didn't need to eat. Gotta work that off now!  Duh!!!

Now, I'm not desperate & lonely by any means; and I have good friends & my children, but sometimes I get in this weird mood whereby I don't feel like going to bed (usually if I'm overtired to begin with...) because this is the time when it reminds me that I am alone (I don't miss my ex at all, but I do miss having someone special).  As a result, I end up staying up ridiculously late sometimes - and this is when you have to overcome the temptation of late night snacking.  Why, oh why, did I forget to pray for strength to resist and to go to bed early.  (original plan was to have an early night).  Kicking myself.  Have decided that I need to set a goal for this week, so new goal is to go to bed at 9.30 pm every school night this week.  Oh and drink plenty of water.  Something I find hard to do.  Can't afford to buy water (when there is free water out of the tap), but our town water tastes awful, in my opinion, particularly my part of town, so I'm going to attempt to use boiled water with lemon!  Will see how that goes!
