My eating today started with fast food. I was hungry so that is good but I did have trouble stopping. It seems that is going to be something I am on my knees daily with, well should be that way anyways, but even more dependence and crying out with the desire to stop eating when I am satisfied. I try to hold on to "more" when I don't need it. That is what is causing my waistband to expand.
My next time that I ate I was not completely hungry but getting close. I had a soft taco and started on a second, then felt the Lord saying I should stop that I was satisfied and would you know it, praise!! I stopped, gave the rest to my hubby and just stopped. I did eat a few bites of a brownie afterwards but then that was all. I have to say that was a victory. Thank you Lord, help me to not discount that as something because I did not do it all perfect.
The rest of the day I did eat when I was not hungry, had a bowl of chili I made for dinner and I was not all the way hungry, and really that just caused discomfort physically. I didn't need it.
Main lesson learned today to sum it up in one word, what would it be......wait.
Wait on Him. Wait for hunger. Wait on His lead. Wait before I jump into something I don't need. Wait.
More later...love to you...
