I'm having a good week---but my weight-loss isn't showing it.

That is the only part of my new lifestyle that gets discouraging. I don't get discouraged over the foods I "can't" eat anymore, even sugar (which used to be my "best friend"); but the fickleness of the scale is still a big battle for me. Why does it take so long to get where I want to go?

Thankfully, I am never alone. There is never a time I do not sense the ever-precious presence of God.
