#215…Got the Mind Right, Got the Plan

I am not without problems. I’m splitting the personality so I can trick myself to lose weight. So there’s me the body, BUT now me the mind. The body has run amuck! Now for THE plan.

Visual persuasion is my latest thing. I’m down 4 lbs. in two weeks, a Hallmark miracle! ! ! The truth of the matter is, if I continue much longer, I may be headed towards my final reward. Things have got to change, my body is screaming!

Got these laid out on the kitchen counter so I can exercise here and there betwixt cooking and dishes and TV. Spring is about to arrive and, not to mention flabby arms hidden under long sleeves.  Oh dear!

So something wonderful has happened in St. Joe! ! ! ! We had the grand opening of THRIFT WORLD! A huge place with a most extraordinary system of sales. One week e.g. an item is $3.98, the next it is half off, the next it is .99 and that Sunday it is .48. Unbelievable. When I had my eBay store for 10 years, Marge and I would drive up to Omaha Nebraska to that store and I would buy $50 worth of .48 jeans and bring them home to sell. God must love me extra special to bring that magic here.

I have this fetish for tall easels for my painting of the month club…this weight has to go and I am miserable in my clothes! Why not spend very little at THRIFT WORLD …a SIZE SMALLER and hang them in my dining room next to my scales and promise myself I can wear them when I lose 9 lbs? Ten seems unreal to me, but 9 tricks my body. So then when I move these into my closet, I will move that many out. Then I will go shopping again for the next size smaller.

Rest assured I have backed off from sugar and carbs. I want to live. There is so  much to tell about how good the Lord is and the wonderful things He has helped me thru in my life. There are answers out there and I want to share them.

Be looking for me about town with my new magnetic signs for my car…you know those garage sales are starting up!
