Our group's 7 weeks have officially come to an end, but this won't be the end of my Made to Crave journey. That's never ending (as opposed to my "diets"!).
I think my one main revelation that I think is game-changing is that my food issues have a seed of rebellion as their root.
Rebellion seems like one of those loud and dangerous words, doesn't it? In this case, I'd definitely say it's been passive aggression.
Although I would have never said it out loud, or even consciously thought it, my attitude has been, "God, I have given you everything. Almost. Because I know that you love me no matter what, I don't think you care about what I put in my mouth and chew. So I'll just keep this piece of my life."
I have to be completely honest with you. I still feel some resistance to this journey I'm on. I'm not completely sure why, and I'm also not completely sure how to deal with it. I think pressing on and pressing through is the key for right now, so that's what I'm doing...making the next courageous choice (love that!) and moving the mountain one rock at a time (love that even more!!).

Walking with YOU!
I feel the resistance too. You aren't alone!
I too am walking "with you" even if I did do the "study" on my own. But honestly Amy, at work today, after being around negative Union members, hearing all the yuck - I feel so dirty - and if a brownie was in front of me; it would be gone! I go on the internet and read some Scriptures but when I am feeling this way, the words just don't sink in...I'm praying too. Thankfully God made sure there were no brownies around me. What I need is a deep drink of Christian fellowship which my job, "Laborers' Union Secretary" I just don't have that. I am thankful that I can log on to Prov. 31 Women's blogs from time to time and get a "fresh drink". You keep on keeping on, let's keep each other "fighting the good fight". Love and Prayers, Anita
I'm waiting for my "bundle" to come in the mail!!
And I'm feeling rebellion already...yikes!
I took a walk today. Did my mint chocolate chip ice cream cancel that out?
Hugs and prayers!
