With ya in the "but" and "and" and wish I had more of the "finally". I like what Tom Saben said last week "Jesus obliterated his reputation to show compassion." –examples peppered throughout the Gospels–

Oh good…I can still bug you if I see you online after 2am :)

I've gone through seasons of giving stuff up for lent. It's good to make it a luxury thing, and social media can be that for sure – or for others it can (sadly) be an essential lifeline.

This year we have such an intensely busy period of time ahead that adding more noise, by removing noise, may be counter productive. Not sure what that means, but since I'm half-way through the first day of lent here, I'd better decide what I am or am not giving up pretty soon huh.

I'm slightly envious…. I don't know if I could give up FB for 40 days…. it's how I keep up on everyone and just about the only "socializing" I have time for. I have my bible study and MOPS stuff I participate in, but everyone outside of that circle is on FB…. and it's our only link, really. But, like you, I find I'm on here because I have nothing else to do…. actually, it's probably more true that I have nothing else I WANT to do, so I use it to avoid…. I have plenty to occupy my time, I do have three hooligans. *sigh* The more I say, the more lame it all sounds, and the more I think it would do some good…. whether I do it or not though…….

Bit of a shameless plug here, but I've started to do an online study called The Lord's Table http://www.settingcaptivesfree.com/courses/lords-... , and it's helping me address why I eat, and why most of the reasons I want to lose weight, while noble, aren't making me focus on the right things, or could lead to me constantly frustrated.

I can't say I'm the best 'student' of the course, but there's definitely a shift in my relationship with food, and I like that. A lot. And the fact it's free :-)

Bro,
We have so many things in common, photography, very supportive spouses, I weigh in at 320 and I am so ashamed. But I do know that we are both loved by a God who thinks the world of us. I look forward to your progress and will share mine with you. Be strong and encouraged, I believe the real secret to our success is prayer, and I will say a prayer for you when I am asking God to help me have another healthy day. Shari

No, I don't have the magic, weight loss, sentence to put here, but I do find it comforting to know I'm not alone in my struggles. Just yesterday I had thoughts of putting a post, closely resembling this one, on my blog. But in having a blog, it kinda makes it harder cuz I feel like everyone reading is thinking "here he goes again." If anything, for me, it's motivation to stay the same….no ups, but no downs either. Obviously not the best way of thinking. I've been told a million times to stop thinking in terms of "diet" and think "life change"…..easier said than done, but I need to get back on the wagon myself. Best of luck to ya……you're not alone bro!
