I have never made the connection you made of the Armor of God to helping with weight loss and food addiciton being a chain like Nephi talks about, but it so very much is!! <BR/>Second, I can't stop laughing at the image of Rex Kuando and his bad boy pants being compared to the armor of God. That is too funny--I love it!A mother hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15766853933459270549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-32848413807776420092008-01-23T16:45:00.000-08:002008-01-23T16:45:00.000-08:00I was feeling so good about myself after going to ...I was feeling so good about myself after going to the grocery store yesterday. I admit to smug thoughts about how healthy my cartful looked when compared with the overflowing of frozen processed goods behind me. <BR/><BR/>I resisted every item on the cookie and cracker aisle but then came home and made a huge batch of chocolate chip cookies. And I can't stop eating them.<BR/><BR/>I'm in serious need of that armor!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10955787132833644082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-30603088396346648052008-01-22T19:27:00.000-08:002008-01-22T19:27:00.000-08:00Thank you as usual for being your own eloquent sel...Thank you as usual for being your own eloquent self.Heffalumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166154112206680302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6743919178082251405.post-88589212629306138042008-01-22T08:57:00.000-08:002008-01-22T08:57:00.000-08:00I love how you tie in the scriptures with eating. ...I love how you tie in the scriptures with eating.

What a wonderful way to start! I did it after my second baby and it worked like a charm. Now after my third, I am a good 25 lbs more than I want, and (I am ashamed to say) have started to slowly gain. Why is it so hard to let go of pride and admit that we can't do it ourself and that the weight won't magically come off. Dr. Phil is right. Willpower is a joke. The flesh is weak. I am going to print out this post and put in on my fridge. I'd frame it if I had an extra frame!Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00387261290873202149noreply@blogger.com
