Eating out at the Red Lantern (I will make healthy food choices - I am tired of "fooling around" with my food. When I choose unhealthy food choices and overeating, I am going against God's Will for me and letting my COE disease win. This is choosing death, in my opinion, because that is what got me morbidly obese in the first place. God did not do this to me, I did it to myself.

I am the keeper of this vessal, and I am responsible for keeping it healthy. No one else. Just me. So I thank God every day for my healthy body, and I pray that he will help me to fuel it in a way that is pleasing to Him.
But we are only human, and have ISSUES! So forgive yourself for past transgressions, learn from your behavior, and go on to better things for yourself in the future. Eating differently than you were raised to eat for a lifetime is HARD and takes time. It's not our fault that we were taught to eat wrong, but it is our fault if we've learned better and havent' even tried to change. I don't know about you, but dietary discipline wasn't even ever heard of in my house. So I'm cutting myself some slack cuz I wasn't raised that way. Just keep working it...I can already see such a big difference in your attitude and afterall, ATTITUDE is EVERYTHING!
