"There we saw the Nephilim [or giants], the sons of Anak, who come from the giants; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight." - Numbers 13:33

Today's sermon really hit home for me today. As I listened, I realized that I could continue to think like a grasshopper or I could become a giant killer. Over the past 3 weeks, I have received nice compliments and properly responded to each one. Unfortunately, I didn't really believe the people who gave them because I don't see the changes. In my mind, the Zumba, the walking, and the weight work seem to be in vain because the scale hasn't really changed. So this week, I took measurements. Guess what?! Since the end of June, I have lost a total of 5.5 inches and one pound! Week over week results may be slow, but overall progress is sure!
Last week, Jack and Gladys became facebook friends and only the good Lord knows what may happen now. I feel so blessed that I have this kind of support, but I have a feeling that the giant killing may kick into high gear from here out! I have to remember my goal; to see what is underneath all this fat. The doctors says I'm a small boned woman. I always thought I was big boned. Interestingly, I gave myself permission to think that I SHOULD be a skinny lady. I am ready for this journey with renewed optimism and determination.
LET THE GIANT KILLING COMMENCE!!
and away we go...
