There's an award for you on the s...Hi, Keelie. There's an award for you on the sidebar of my blog. It is the "Strength in the Storm Award". It's a pink flower on a green field with the words "the Joy of the Lord is My Strength" on it. <br /><br />You may have your own way of lifting things from blogs. If not, one way is to right click on it, save it as a picture, and upload it to your blog using the picture gadget. You decide whether or not you add the "Strength in the Storm" caption at the bottom.<br /><br />You don't have to do anything to get this award--you have already done it. It is for those who have gone thru, or are going are holdng onto Jesus for strength as they go thru a storm.<br /><br />You're doing that right now. It is quite obvious that the Lord is your strength through this difficiult, stormy time.<br /><br />If you want to pass it on, you may give it to 3 people who are also holding onto Jesus and trusting HIm to get them thru their own storm.<br /><br />You are to inform them of the award in a coment on their post rather than announcing it on your own. And tell them why they are getting it.<br /><br />You are loved--and you will be victorious in this. It's just a little rainy right now, that's all.<br /><br />DebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294634451803784488.post-54536201291288229152010-07-01T21:23:23.361-05:002010-07-01T21:23:23.361-05:00Love it!

I re-read it last night and it did help my mindset a bit. My run today was quite a bit better than yesterday. I hope this will help to lift your mood at least a little.<br /><br />Paper Towel Theory<br /><br />Someone posted this in another forum that I visit. I think it is VERY applicable to all of us in our weightloss journeys no matter what we're doing to get there. This was posted with Body For Life participants (a 12 week challenge created by Bill Phillips) in mind as the audience so there are some references to the Body For Life workouts and eating mannerisms. No matter what approach you're taking to lose the fat it can be applied to all of us and it is something all of us need to keep in mind as we go along this journey!!<br /><br />Blozzom :-)<br /><br />ALL-IN Inspiration...........PAPER TOWEL THEORY!!!<br /><br />A guy by the name of Bob White gets credit for this AWESOME theory. Here’s a little inspiration for those of you who are worried about not seeing any changes in your body so far. It’s what I call the “Paper Towel Theory”.<br /><br />Let’s assume you go out and buy two rolls of paper towels, each with only 84 paper towels on it (one for each day of the challenge). You put one aside, and keep it for future reference (your “before” picture). The other one represents you (I’ll call your paper towel you “Ed”). The core represents the lean Ed. The towels represent the fat that is covering the lean Ed. For sake of argument, let’s say that Ed wants to lose 21 pounds of fat, so (84/21) each sheet represents a quarter-pound of fat lost. Let’s also assume that Ed loses his fat equally during each day of the challenge.<br /><br />Each day during the first week, you tear a sheet off of Ed, representing the fat he has lost for the day. Next, you put Ed next to the full roll (“Big Al”) for comparison. No noticeable difference!!! Even at the end of the week! This can’t be working for me!<br /><br />But, being a good Ed, you continue to follow Body-for-LIFE. At the end of weeks two and three, you continue to compare Ed to Big Al, and still notice very little difference. That stinkin’ Bill Phillips MUST be a liar!<br /><br />But Ed is determined! He works hard! Hitting his 10’s…eating his 6 daily meals. Three more weeks go by, the sheets peeling off day after day, before Ed gets up the courage to stand next to Big Al again. Holy Myoplex! Ed is skinny! OK, not skinny, but less huge!!!<br /><br />By the end of the 12-week Body-for-LIFE program, Ed is down to his lean dream, or somewhere near it. Ed is happy. We are happy. Big Al – well he’s not so happy.<br /><br />The lesson to be learned is that fat, like paper towels, comes off in sheets. When you are heavy, you are big around. And when you are big around, that fat is spread over a MUCH larger area – just like that outside towel sheet. The closer you get to the lean you, the more each lost pound of fat shows, because it is spread over a smaller area.<br /><br />While the outside sheet may only cover 1 layer of the roll, the inside sheet may go around 4 times. That last sheet looks like it gives you 4 times the results of the first sheet, but in reality, the results are the same – your perception is just different! And you’ll never see the inside, if you aren’t patient<br />while the outside is coming off! - Bob WhiteJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04480755247791739776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5294634451803784488.post-91596805059457384892010-07-01T20:45:55.382-05:002010-07-01T20:45:55.382-05:00You got this one, Keelie, you do!

You totally inspire me, even when your struggling. Because you keep struggling. You don't give up and say oh well. And I have no doubt that you'll get all the way to the top of those flights of stairs - and you'll find that "skinny" you waiting at the top!Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13002949544678789625noreply@blogger.com
