I ate too much. I didn’t just eat too much of the good kind of food I ate too much of the kinds of food Dr. Oz warns the world not to eat. We baked pies & cookies & cakes in anticipation of our company through the holidays but our guests really behaved themselves (nutritionally speaking). Every night I promised myself not to eat like a pig the next day & each day I succumbed to a craving for sugar.

Just thinking about cutting back made me hungry. Apparently I’m a better baker than motivational thinker. Once again I need to stop fighting my own battles & cast my wimpy soul on the mercy & power of the Savior. Thankfully, He’s not just about saving our souls He is a friend like no other.
