Hey, everybody! I am maintaining my weight loss, basically, for now. (It will vary a little -- up and down, but stays around my goal.) I intend to get more serious and eat only fruit for supper again -- after the holidays. I'm eating basically LDL, but popcorn is often on the menu at night for now. That is OK for LDL, but I don't lose my best when I eat it. I plan to set the goal to eat the Express Train way -- after the holidays.
Oh, my husband went Christmas shopping with his niece for me on Saturday!! He is being so secretive about those six packages he put under the tree today -- he said that people brought them for him today at the shop. I was asking for clothes and I know that is what he got me. I don't like to shop much, so this is a blessing and his niece wears cute clothes.
Fun!
Also, yesterday while we were shopping, I saw a friend of mine who taught 5th grade where I taught 4th grade a few years back. I'd called her and told her all about LDL a few weeks back. She was on Atkins years back and I know she tried South Beach after I'd lost some on that plan. Well, she got the book and has been doing it for over a week and she was wearing jeans that she hadn't been able to button before starting LDL. She was so excited. I am so happy for her. She is so beautiful and will be a knock out. Her son is getting married in May and of course she wants to look her best. She isn't feeling deprived at all and is loving this way of eating, just like all of us are. I love to be able to share this treasure with those I know will love it too. She has a little more to lose than I did, so I'm thinking she might be able to lose more than 40 lbs. by the wedding. Even if not, she will be healthier and thinner on that day and beyond! How can we keep such good news to ourselves? I knew she would love LDL and am so glad I called her on that day and told her all about it.
Is there someone you know who'd really be blessed by LDL and just needs the knowledge that it exists? If so, call them and share your success with them. You will rejoice with them when they start experiencing the success that will be theirs from eating this way.
Merry Christmas, everyone! We have so much to rejoice in. God led us to a wonderful way of eating that is setting us free to be our best. This is just the kind of thing Jesus was born for. Truly! He came to set us free from all that hinders us from being our best. He gives us victory over sin and I'd say eating unhealthy and causing our bodies to be sick is sin -- since sin is whatever causes us to fall short of God's glory. This is really good news! We should shout it from the roof tops!
Blessings to all!
