Mother's Day Challenge: Crash and Burn

Do you remember the movie Men in Black? They pull out the little pen thingy, put on their sunglasses and "click!" You don't remember a thing!

I wish I had one of those.

We put our Mother's Day Weight-Loss Challenge out for public display, so we gotta own up.

Kirsten's down some, I'm down almost nothing. We'll see how the others are doing, but the reports aren't stellar.

You have to pull the weeds before you plant the garden. I think I'm still in the weed-pulling stage, trying to lay the foundation for real weight loss and fitness. Not there yet: I'm thinking this fall for myself. I take some comfort in the fact that I've done it before.

Update: Kirsten's brother Pete is the weight-loss-challenge Hero of Heroes: he lost as much weight as all the rest of us put together, at 14 pounds. You so rock!

Food for the Hungry Heart:
Inspiration for Overeaters

Ps 139:1-2
O Lord You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and rising up; You understand my thought afar off.

"God understands our thoughts from afar. He knows what we think and why we think it. He knows what we do with those thoughts. So many people who struggle with life's hurts ask the question, 'Does God care about me?' The first two versed in Psalm 139 prove it. He sees us. He knows us. He loves us."

-With love from a fellow traveler
