I used to have a craving for a McDonald's Big Mac and fries about once a week. So I usually indulged that craving...about once a week. When I started my new way of living healthy and decided to lose some weight, I knew that driving by a McDonald's every day was going to be a hurdle I had to face. You see, there's one parked right at the entrance of my subdivision, so I do literally drive right by it every day (if I leave the house!).
*Raising my right hand* I hereby declare that it's been one month since I've had McDonald's and with the help of God I have no more desire to pull into the drive-thru and load up on a 1000 calorie meal. Amen!
This is one of the first times that I have actually seen the power of prayer work for me. Yes, I prayed that God would take away the craving, and He did. So those of you who don't believe in a Higher power probably stopped reading long ago, but for those who are still reading and *might* believe, God cares about us, even our seemingly little things like weight loss. God loves you!
Don't away all the credit! You did some of the work too! go girl! |
